One Way Services
One way charter bus rentals involve transportation to a destination without a return trip. Many groups flying into a Gainesville airport rent a one way bus to get everyone to their hotel, event venue, cruise port, or other destination together.
Hourly Charter Bus Rentals
You can rent charter buses and minibuses by the hour for flexibility. Hourly packages put you in control of your schedule. Buses arrive when you need them and you only pay for the hours used. Hourly rentals work nicely for quick trips, nights on the town, and on-demand transportation.
Recurring Shuttle Services
For groups that need transportation on a regular basis, we can set up a recurring shuttle service with a charter bus or minibus. This is great for employee commuting, church gatherings, sports practice transportation, and any other scenario where you need a bus consistently. You dictate the schedule, route, length of service, and other details so we can customize the contract to your needs.
