What types of events & destinations do you frequently serve in Detroit, Michigan?

+

We provide groups with transportation for school field trips to the Detroit Institute of Arts (5200 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI 48202), campus tours at Wayne State University and the University of Michigan, and faith-based events at the Huntington Place convention center (1 Washington Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226).

No matter if you need a minibus, motorcoach, or sprinter van, we've got the right vehicle for your group.

How far in advance should I book my Detroit, Michigan bus rental?

+

As a general rule of thumb, it's always best to book your transportation at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure you get exactly what you need. This is especially important if your group trip takes place during peak season, like the spring (April-May) when the University of Michigan and Michigan State University commencement ceremonies are held, or the fall (September-November) when high school homecomings and collegiate football Saturdays keep every local charter bus company busy. Because these large-scale events bring thousands of people into Ann Arbor and East Lansing, every local charter bus company within 50 miles will have limited availability, and rates will be at their absolute highest. Planning your trip details and reserving your vehicle ahead of time ensures your group has a private bus rental in Detroit secured at a much more manageable price.

And if your plans change? No problem! Our flexible cancellation policy allows you to adjust your reservation without losing your entire deposit.
