Who We Serve

We work with all types of groups, including schools, universities, sports teams, corporate offices, government agencies, religious organizations, wedding planners, and private event organizers. You can book transportation for any occasion: field trips to the Science Center of Iowa, campus tours at Drake University, business shuttles between downtown and the airport, or charter buses to concerts at Wells Fargo Arena. We also help people plan custom sightseeing tours, brewery crawls, casino runs, and more. No matter your size or destination, we will build a rental package that fits your exact needs!

What Vehicles We Provide

Our fleet includes everything from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger motorcoaches, so there’s a vehicle for every group and budget. Smaller parties can rent compact sprinter vans or shuttle-style minibuses—perfect for moving guests between hotels and venues like the Scottish Rite Consistory or Rollins Mansion. Larger groups will appreciate our spacious charter buses, which have room for luggage, coolers, and equipment storage underneath. We even offer ADA-accessible options with wheelchair lifts and priority seating upon request.

Need something special? Ask about premium coaches with leather seats, hardwood floors, and custom branding packages. We’re happy to accommodate sports teams hauling gear, tech crews bringing A/V setups, or wedding parties looking for extra comfort on the road.
