Whittlesea Combined Pensioners
The service that office staff Lisa, Trevor and Driver Gordon and the other drivers give us is unbelievable. To me I see Cobb & Co a one stop shop. All I have to do is ring Lisa to send me flyers, I pick a trip and Lisa does the rest. I do not have to book clubs for lunch or look on the Internet for trips.
Cobb & Co has shown to be very helpful, friendly, reliable and are good and what they do and I love there new buses. I have recommended Cobb & Co to other social clubs and they have also been happy with there service.

Our History
Established with the intention of servicing the Victorian goldfields, Cobb & Co quickly developed to become the most successful company of its kind during the 19th Century, pioneering transport routes, delivering mail, gold and passengers throughout the country and contributing greatly to social growth and the expansion of pastoral settlement across Australia. Cobb & Co was set up in Melbourne, Victoria in 1853 by Freeman Cobb, John Murray Peck, John B Lamber and James Swanton.
The company was enormously successful and had branches and franchises throughout much of Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Japan. At its peak, Cobb & Co operated along a network of tracks that extended further than those of any other coach system in the world – its coaches travelled 44,800km per week and 6,000 (out of their 30,000) horses were harnessed every day.
Today, we are proud to have this famous name continue with our 5 star touring coaches, a far cry from the original wooden framed coaches, yet equally as impressive. Our fleet of coaches are all seat belted, fully air conditioned with reclining seats, TV/DVD and of course rest room equipped. We also have two 25 seat mini coaches which suit day tours and extended tours for smaller groups.
Our Premium Service
Ever since January 1854 when the first Cobb & Co coach left the Criterion Hotel in Melbourne, bound for Forest Creek, we have been the number one name in Australian luxury coaches and an integral part of the spirit that drives Australia.
Today the Cobb & Co name lives on-partnering with some of Australia's, and the world's best tour operators to help explore new ways of making the true spirit of Australia more accessible to everyone.
