Corporate events venues are not one size fits all, so it’s important to choose the space that suits your company’s style and budget. Check out these venues for off-site meetings, conferences, team-building activities, and holiday parties. Once you’ve selected your dream venue, use Bus.com’s booking tool to get a bus rental quote. A Miami charter bus will get your team to their destination safely and on budget, and a shuttle service organized through Bus.com is a great way to take on conference transportation.
Frequently Asked Corporate Transportation Questions
Should I organize shuttle service or a single charter bus?
It depends on the size of your group and whether or not you expect attendees to leave at different times. If you’ve got a small group, then a single Miami coach bus or minibus should be sufficient. If you’re planning a large event like a hack-a-thon or conference, you’ll need a shuttle service to ensure seamless transportation of attendees. Talk to your Bus.com booking specialist to organize shuttle service in Miami.
When should I rent my bus?
ASAP! Rent your bus at least six months in advance, but if you can, book even earlier. We make this recommendation because as bus availability decreases closer to your departure date, prices tend to increase. To avoid price surges, take advantage of our Book Now, Pay Later policy. Reserve your Miami bus rental early and wait to pay until three weeks before boarding.
Can I decorate my bus in company colors?
Yes! Branded bus wraps are a great way to take your company pride on the road, advertising your brand wherever you go. Just imagine your big, bold, beautiful logo driving down Ocean Drive like a magnificent billboard. Talk to your booking specialist to learn more about bus wrapping. Need some inspiration?
