Happy Clients
We are a one-stop service for anyone looking to charter a bus to an interesting location in the United States, Europe or Canada. First, you can call the company any time of day and any day of the week to reserve your charter bus. When reserving your bus rental, you have the choice of a variety of buses, including a limo bus or a luxury shuttle. Once your bus is reserved, you will be met on the day of your trip by a reliable chauffeur who has been thoroughly vetted by the company for your safety. The last thing you have to do is simply sit back and relax as your chauffeur takes you to your destination.
One destination that is worth visiting by bus is Providence, Rhode Island, a city that boasts about its multitude of fun activities available any day of the week. People who love food culture will be impressed by the variety of restaurants in the city, while families will enjoy the educational and fun attractions the city has to offer. The city also has a lot of art and culture to share with visitors.
Local Eats
There is no better way to get to know a city than to do what the locals do, so when visiting here it is worth it to check out the restaurants where the locals eat. One of these local eateries is Haven Brothers, a diner located in a trailer on wheels that can usually be found next to City Hall on most nights. The diner serves up burgers and other grilled specials until the early morning hours. Olneyville New York System is another local favorite that dishes out hot dogs, including the famous "all the way" dog topped with onions, mustard, spicy meat sauce and celery salt.
Because of Rhode Island's location on the ocean, seafood is a popular theme in the city's restaurants. Hemenway's Restaurant is one of the original downtown seafood restaurants located by the river. Known for serving only the freshest fish, this casual restaurant will make you feel like you are eating directly from the ocean. For a fancier seafood experience, dine at Providence Oyster Bar, one of the top seafood restaurants in the city that also boasts excellent customer service and a first-class atmosphere.
Fun for the Whole Family
If you visit Rhode Island in the winter months, one of the can't miss attractions is the Alex and Ani City Center where you will find a 14,000 square foot ice rink for all your ice skating pleasure. If your ice skating skills are not up to par, the center also offers skating lessons to interested parties.
For young children, the Providence Children's Museum provides the only center for interactive learning in the state. Children are encouraged to learn new things by playing with and exploring the exhibits. Imaginations will run wild with hands-on exhibits ranging from arts and culture to science and history.
To enjoy the outdoors and wildlife at the same time, take your family to the Roger Williams Park Zoo, which is billed as one of the best zoos in New England. Explore over 40 acres of animal exhibits, including moon bears, a red panda, giraffes, an African elephant, a snow leopard and a giant ant eater.
Arts and Culture
One of the most famous sites in Rhode Island is the modern fire sculpture exhibit, known as Waterfire that occurs on select nights in the city during the summer. Visitors walk along the river where over 100 bonfires are burning as they encounter live music and performances. Performers dressed in all black move along the river in boats in order to keep the fires blazing all night.
Even more art is available at the RISD Museum, which contains art from the art school of the same name. The museum includes items ranging from ancient to modern times and has everything from paintings to sculptures. Performance art is also an important part of the city with a number of theaters putting on Broadway plays, musicals and concerts.
Providence is a great destination for food, family fun and a variety of arts and culture attractions. Chartering a bus is the perfect solution to get the opportunity to explore this great city.

The answer is: it depends. When you call one of our 24/7 reservation specialists with your trip details, they will build a quote for you based on a few factors, including how far you'll be traveling, which bus you rent, how many hours or days you will need the rental, and where and when you will be picked up. Depending on your trip itinerary, your rental cost will be broken down by hour, day, or mile.
You can learn more on our charter bus pricing page, and your reservation specialist will be happy to break down pricing further when you call.
Our network offers full-size charter buses, minibus rentals, and sprinter vans. Full-size charter bus rentals are great for larger groups or longer distance trips and can accommodate up to 56 passengers, while minibus rentals work well for medium-sized groups of 12 to 25 passengers. Groups even smaller than that can rent a sprinter van, which comfortably accommodates up to 12 people.
