In April 2018 Eldo introduced their new fleet of buses built to their specifications and fitted with a few luxuries.
The Single Decker has 52 seats, the Comfort Liner has 60 luxury seats and the Executive Touring Seater has 52 seats.
Each boasts reclining seats fitted with seat belts, audio and visual entertainment, individual air vents, reading lights, armrests and tray tables. An emergency toilet has also been fitted on each bus.
By the look of it, these seem to be some fancy pants buses!
