Parrys International coaches was formed as a Limited Company in November 1973 and has remained under the leadership of the founder and Managing Director Dave Parry for 52 Years. From around 1977, tours were introduced until they become so successful that by 1980 Coach Holidays become our only business with a full programme of British and European Destinations.
Not only could you get a day trip out, you could get dropped off at your local boozer.
