Your guests will have fun while a driver takes care of navigating Jacksonville traffic. We also offer access to a variety of smaller, more intimate shuttle bus options for your bridal parties to travel comfortably between photoshoots and venue stops on the day of the wedding, and a designated driver for your last night of freedom during your bachelor or bachelorette party!
Jacksonville Corporate Transportation & Employee Shuttles
Rather than organizing a fleet of personal cars to drive across town for your next corporate convention or having employees get stuck in rush hour traffic every morning and evening, book a private charter bus rental for everyone to travel together with ease. Having a corporate shuttle will allow your guests or team to arrive all at the same time.

Ditch the old, uncomfortable school bus and keep your class comfortable on the road with air-conditioning, power outlets to charge your student’s mobile devices, a restroom onboard, reclining seats to snooze during those longer rides, and more!

The possibilities for field trips are endless, especially when you have a dedicated driver, comfortable travel options, and 24/7 support from our customer service team.

With a charter bus or minibus rental, you can have a fun day in the sun exploring Jacksonville Beach with all your best buds, or celebrate your friend’s upcoming wedding with a brewery tour across the city. You and your guests can relax on the bus as your driver navigates local Jacksonville traffic and get dropped off right in front of every bar or brewery on your itinerary.
