A few of the companies we’ve worked with
The National Automobile Museum
If your group has a need for speed or an appreciation for history, the National Automobile Museum (The Harrah Collection) is a non-negotiable stop on your Reno itinerary. Located right on the Truckee River, this museum is consistently ranked among the top auto museums in the world. It features more than 200 spectacular cars, detailing the history of the automobile from the late 19th century through the golden era of Hollywood and into the future. It’s a fantastic destination for school field trips, senior citizen tour groups, and corporate outings looking for a unique event space.
Parking in the museum district can be tricky, especially if you are trying to coordinate a caravan of personal vehicles. The museum has a lot, but it fills up quickly during peak tourist seasons and special events like Hot August Nights. When you rent a charter bus with Charter Bus Reno, your driver can drop your group off right at the main entrance at 10 S Lake St, Reno, NV 89501. Your group can step off the bus and head straight into the exhibits without circling for spots or paying for multiple parking meters. After you’ve marveled at the Elvis Presley Cadillac or the 1907 Thomas Flyer, your climate-controlled bus will be waiting to whisk you away to lunch or your next adventure.
The Row (Eldorado, Silver Legacy, Circus Circus)
For the quintessential Reno experience, you have to visit "The Row." This interconnected complex in the heart of downtown links three of the city's most iconic resort casinos: the Eldorado, Silver Legacy, and Circus Circus. It spans six city blocks and offers over 25 restaurants, 22 bars and lounges, and hundreds of table games and slots. It is the heartbeat of Reno's nightlife and a prime destination for bachelor/bachelorette parties, corporate conventions, and weekend getaways. Whether you are catching a comedy show at the Laugh Factory or dining at La Strada, The Row has something for everyone in your group.
Navigating downtown Reno traffic and dealing with valet fees for a dozen different cars is a surefire way to dampen the party spirit. A party bus rental or charter bus rental from Charter Bus Reno acts as your ultimate designated driver. We can pick your group up from the Reno-Tahoe International Airport and take you straight to the hotel lobby at 345 N Virginia St, Reno, NV 89501. If you are planning a casino-hopping night, leave the keys behind. Your private shuttle ensures everyone travels safely together, allowing your group to enjoy the nightlife responsibly. With amenities like leather seating and auxiliary ports for your own music, the party starts the moment you board the bus.
Lake Tahoe – Sand Harbor State Park
Just a short, scenic drive from Reno lies one of the most beautiful bodies of water on earth: Lake Tahoe. Sand Harbor State Park, located on the Nevada side of the lake near Incline Village, offers crystal-clear waters, stunning rock formations, and the annual Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival. It is a perfect spot for swimming, kayaking, or simply soaking in the Sierra Nevada sun. However, Sand Harbor is notorious for one thing: impossible parking. The parking lot often fills up by 8:00 AM during the summer, forcing latecomers to turn around or risk dangerous roadside parking miles away.
This is where Charter Bus Reno becomes your group's best asset. By booking a charter bus to Lake Tahoe, you bypass the parking nightmare entirely. Your driver can drop your group and all your beach gear—coolers, umbrellas, towels—right at the park entrance at 2005 NV-28, Incline Village, NV 89451. While your group enjoys the pristine beach, your driver handles the vehicle logistics. Plus, the drive from Reno to the lake involves mountain roads that can be intimidating for unfamiliar drivers. The drivers are familiar with navigating the grades of Mount Rose Highway (NV-431), ensuring a relaxing journey with panoramic views through the bus's large windows.
Greater Nevada Field
Home to the Reno Aces, the Triple-A affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Greater Nevada Field offers a classic American pastime experience with a stunning backdrop of the mountains. Located in the energetic Freight House District, the stadium is perfect for group outings, whether it’s a Little League team celebration, a company morale event, or a family reunion. The stadium offers group seating options and picnic areas, making it a very group-friendly venue. Beyond baseball, the field hosts soccer matches, concerts, and winter festivals.
Game day traffic around Evans Avenue can get congested, and parking prices can add up quickly for a large group. A sports team charter bus rental allows your group to tailgate on the road and arrive together. With plenty of undercarriage storage for equipment, banners, or tailgating supplies, you won't have to cramp your style. We can drop your fan club off curbside at 250 Evans Ave, Reno, NV 89501, moments before the first pitch. After the game, you avoid the post-game gridlock exodus by relaxing in your reclining seat while your driver navigates the streets back to your hotel or home.
MidTown District
If your group wants to experience the trendy, hipster, and artistic side of Reno, head south of downtown to the MidTown District. This revitalized neighborhood is brimming with murals, vintage clothing stores, craft breweries, cocktail bars, and farm-to-table restaurants. It’s a walking district, but getting a large group there and finding parking for multiple cars on the narrow residential streets can be a major headache. It is an ideal destination for wedding parties looking for a unique brunch spot or corporate teams looking for a relaxed happy hour.
Charter Bus Reno can serve as your shuttle service for a MidTown exploration. We can drop your group off at a central location, such as near the intersection of South Virginia Street and Mary Street, allowing you to explore on foot. If you are planning a pub crawl or a mural tour, your bus can meet you at designated points to transport you to the next cluster of shops. This flexibility allows you to shop and dine without carrying heavy bags all day or worrying about feeding the parking meters. Enjoy the local culture at places like 777 S Center St, Reno, NV 89501 (The Discovery museum nearby) and let us handle the transportation logistics.
Mount Rose Ski Tahoe
For groups visiting in the winter, Reno is the gateway to world-class skiing, and Mount Rose Ski Tahoe is the closest resort to the city—just 25 minutes away. With the highest base elevation in Tahoe, it offers amazing snow conditions and varied terrain for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. It is a favorite for school ski clubs, church youth groups, and corporate retreats looking to hit the slopes without driving hours into California.
Driving up Mount Rose Highway in winter conditions requires chains, 4-wheel drive, and nerves of steel. Why put that stress on your group? Renting a charter bus for your ski trip ensures safety and comfort. Our buses are equipped to handle winter road conditions, and we offer ample undercarriage storage for skis, snowboards, poles, and heavy winter gear. Your group can stay warm inside the bus, utilizing the onboard WiFi to post photos of the powder, while your driver comfortably transports you to the lodge at 22222 Mt Rose Hwy, Reno, NV 89511. After a long day on the mountain, there is nothing better than resting your tired legs in a plush, reclining seat on the ride back down to Reno.
The Reno Riverwalk District
The Riverwalk District runs along the Truckee River in downtown Reno and is a hub of activity year-round. It’s home to Wingfield Park (which hosts free concerts and festivals), artsy shops, and a variety of dining options with river views. It is also where you will find the whitewater kayak park right in the middle of the city. Groups love this area for its walkability and vibrant atmosphere, making it a staple for walking tours and sightseeing groups.
Parking downtown can be expensive and scarce, specifically during events like the Reno River Festival. By booking a minibus or motorcoach with Charter Bus Reno, you eliminate the hassle. We can drop your group off near the Virginia Street Bridge, allowing you easy access to the Riverwalk. Whether you are there for "Wine Walk" on the third Saturday of the month or just to stroll the galleries, having a dedicated bus waiting for you makes the logistics effortless. You can enjoy the urban nature and cultural events at 135 N Sierra St, Reno, NV 89501 without worrying about how you’ll get back to your accommodation.
Nevada Museum of Art
The Nevada Museum of Art is the only accredited art museum in the state of Nevada. It is not just a building filled with paintings; it is an architectural masterpiece inspired by the Black Rock Desert. The museum focuses on the interaction between people and their environments, making it a fascinating stop for educational groups, architecture buffs, and cultural tourists. They offer guided group tours that provide deep insights into their permanent collections and rotating exhibitions.
Located at the edge of the MidTown and Downtown districts, the museum is a sophisticated addition to any itinerary. When you organize a trip here with Charter Bus Reno, we ensure your group arrives with the dignity and punctuality the venue deserves. We can arrange drop-offs right at the entrance at 160 W Liberty St, Reno, NV 89501. If you are hosting a private event or gala at the museum’s rooftop venue, a shuttle bus rental is the perfect way to transport guests from local hotels, ensuring everyone arrives in formal wear without a wrinkle. Your chauffeur will handle the city streets while you enjoy the art and the views.

Frequently Asked Questions About Reno Group Travel Transportation
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus in Reno?
The cost of a charter bus rental in Reno depends on several factors, including the size of the bus, the duration of the trip, the time of year, and the distance you plan to travel. Local trips are often billed by the hour with a minimum hourly requirement (usually 5 hours), while long-distance or multi-day trips are billed by the day or mile. Because every trip is unique, we recommend calling our reservation specialists at 435-281-1070 for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your specific itinerary.
Do you provide transportation to Burning Man?
Yes, Charter Bus Reno can provide transportation to the Black Rock Desert for Burning Man. However, due to the unique conditions of the playa (alkali dust), these rentals often come with specific terms, conditions, and cleaning fees. Demand for these buses is incredibly high in late August and early September, so we strongly recommend booking your Burning Man transportation 6 to 12 months in advance to ensure availability.
How far in advance should I book my bus rental?
We generally recommend booking your charter bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance. This is especially important if your trip falls during peak travel times, such as summer, major holidays, or during large local events like Hot August Nights, the Great Reno Balloon Race, or the Reno Rodeo. Booking early ensures you get the best selection of vehicles and the most competitive pricing. However, if you have a last-minute trip, give us a call! We will always do our best to accommodate your group.
