Absolutely! We regularly send buses on multi-day trips across Texas and beyond—for example, taking a youth group from Longview to Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, then down to San Antonio for a weekend at SeaWorld before returning home. Other popular itineraries include chartering a bus to Houston for a Rockets game, continuing to Galveston for a beach day, or organizing a weeklong college tour with stops at UT Austin, Texas A&M, Baylor, and SMU. Just provide your full schedule when requesting a quote so we can plan accordingly. Multi-day rentals are priced based on total duration, mileage, and any overnight accommodations required for the driver.

Yes, we have a great selection of party buses available for rent in Longview and surrounding areas. These vehicles are perfect for bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthday celebrations, prom night transportation, concert trips to the Oil Palace in Tyler, or just a fun night out bar-hopping between Downtown Longview, Gilmer Road, and the Loop. Features include wraparound seating, LED lighting, powerful sound systems with Bluetooth connectivity, flat-screen TVs, hardwood dance floors, optional dance poles, and coolers or wet bars for BYOB setups. Sizes range from 10-passenger sprinter limos to 50-passenger super coaches, so there’s something for every group and budget.

We offer ADA-compliant, wheelchair-accessible buses in several sizes, including minibuses and full-size coaches. These vehicles are equipped with either rear or side-entry lifts that can accommodate most standard mobility devices, plus designated securement areas inside the cabin. Additional features include extra-wide aisles, grab handles, slip-resistant flooring, and priority seating for riders with disabilities. If you have specific accessibility needs—such as space for multiple wheelchairs, assistance animals, or low-floor entry—please let us know when booking so we can match you with the right vehicle. We believe everyone deserves safe, reliable transportation regardless of physical ability.

Some of the most common destinations we serve include Maude Cobb Convention Center for trade shows and expos, LeTourneau University for campus tours and athletic events, Longview High School and Pine Tree ISD campuses for student transportation, Lear Park Sports Complex for baseball and soccer tournaments, Downtown Longview’s Heritage Plaza for concerts and festivals, Longview Museum of Fine Arts for cultural outings, and CHRISTUS Good Shepherd Medical Center for hospital staff shuttles. We also provide regular service to regional airports like East Texas Regional (GGG), Tyler Pounds Field (TYR), and Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW), as well as day trips to nearby cities such as Marshall, Kilgore, Henderson, and Shreveport, Louisiana.

Longview is generally very bus-friendly, with plenty of places for oversized vehicles to park, stage, or load/unload passengers. Major venues like Maude Cobb Convention Center, Lobo Stadium, and Lear Park have dedicated bus lots or wide curbside zones specifically for group arrivals. Downtown Longview offers on-street parking along Cotton Street and Green Street, plus surface lots near Heritage Plaza and the Gregg County Courthouse—just avoid blocking intersections or fire lanes. For hotel pickups, most properties along North Fourth Street, Eastman Road, and the Loop have porte-cocheres or rear entrances large enough for a 45-foot coach. If you’re planning a pickup at Longview Transit Center, LeTourneau University, or a local church, let us know in advance so we can coordinate the best spot. And if your itinerary includes stops outside city limits—like Lake Cherokee, Gladewater Rodeo Arena, or an I-20 rest area—we’ll make sure the bus has room to maneuver safely.

Every quote includes exclusive use of the bus for the duration of your trip, all standard amenities onboard (WiFi, power outlets, TVs, restroom, etc.), and mileage/tolls/parking fees as specified in your itinerary. Optional upgrades like premium sound systems, catering packages, or custom branding/wraps are available for an additional charge. There are never any hidden fees or surprise charges—what you see is what you pay.

We recommend booking your bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months before your event date, especially if it falls during peak season (April–June for weddings/graduations, September–November for football games/festivals). This gives you the best selection of vehicles and the most competitive rates. Last-minute reservations are sometimes available, but choices may be limited and prices higher due to demand. If you’re planning a large-scale event like a corporate conference at Maude Cobb Convention Center or a multi-bus wedding at Bella Oaks Venue, securing transportation 9 to 12 months out is even better. For smaller groups or off-peak travel, 4 to 8 weeks’ notice is usually sufficient. Either way, the sooner you contact us, the more options we can offer.
