This French neoclassical mansion and surrounding estate is a favorite for locals and visitors for good reason. Nemours Estate’s 200-acre grounds are home to the 77-room mansion, gorgeous French gardens featuring a maze of hedges and a reflecting pool, and a collection of vintage automobiles. Visitors can explore the house and surrounding gardens and even have picnics on the grounds every day of the week except Monday.
Charter bus tip: Your Shofur bus driver can drop you off at the entrance to the estate, but we can’t drive you through the grounds. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, and when you’re finished with your tour, we’ll be ready to give your feet a break and drive you to your next stop!
Great for: Families, foodies, and craft beer fans
Craft beer lovers are in luck–Wilmington has a growing craft brewery scene, with lots to explore for the times when you’re ready to sit down, stop exploring, and enjoy a drink. Iron Hill Brewery–now an established chain in New England and along the east coast–got its start in nearby Newark, Delaware and now hosts a location right in Wilmington. Other local faves include Stitch House, Wilmington Brew Works, Brew HaHa!, and Hangman Brewing Company, many of which offer extra food & drink options for kids and lots of space to spread out and enjoy a sunny afternoon.
Charter bus tip: Whether you’re adding a brewery stop to your itinerary or dedicating a day to sampling Wilmington’s best brews, Shofur has you covered with a designated driver and safe transportation so no one has to worry about getting back home. Just let us know what breweries you’re planning to visit and we’ll take care of the driving!

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.
