A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Georgia Aquarium
As the largest aquarium in the Western Hemisphere, the Georgia Aquarium is the crown jewel of Atlanta tourism and a non-negotiable stop for groups of all ages. Located at 225 Baker St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, this massive facility holds more than 10 million gallons of water and houses thousands of species, including whale sharks, beluga whales, and manta rays. For school groups and private tours, the sheer size of the venue ensures that everyone remains entertained for hours. However, parking in downtown Atlanta near the Pemberton Place complex can be expensive and difficult to navigate, especially during peak summer months or weekends.
When you book a charter bus rental with Charter Bus Atlanta, you bypass the parking deck headaches entirely. We can arrange for your driver to drop your group off directly at the designated bus lane near the main entrance. While your group heads inside to explore the Ocean Voyager exhibit or catch the dolphin show, your driver will handle parking at the Georgia World Congress Center marshalling yard or other designated bus lots. This seamless curb-to-curb service is particularly valuable for groups with children or mobility-impaired passengers, ensuring everyone starts their aquatic adventure stress-free.
World of Coca-Cola
Just across the green form the aquarium lies another Atlanta icon: the World of Coca-Cola. Located at 121 Baker St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, this museum is a high-energy tribute to the world’s most famous beverage. Groups love it here because of the interactive nature of the exhibits. You can visit the vault where the secret formula is kept, see a 4D movie, and—the highlight for most—visit the "Taste It!" lounge, where you can sample over 100 beverages from around the world. It is a fantastic destination for corporate team-building events or family reunions looking for a fun, shared experience.
Because it shares the Pemberton Place complex with the Aquarium and the Center for Civil and Human Rights, traffic here can be dense. A private minibus or charter bus allows you to keep your group together rather than splitting up into five or six different rideshares. After you have had your fill of Beverly (the infamous bitter Italian soda) and taken photos with the Coca-Cola Polar Bear, your driver will be waiting at the pre-arranged pickup zone to whisk you away to lunch or your next destination. Call us at 334-694-0865 to add this fizzy destination to your custom itinerary.
Centennial Olympic Park
Serving as the town square of downtown Atlanta’s entertainment district, Centennial Olympic Park is a 22-acre legacy of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games. Located at 265 Park Ave W NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, the park is famous for the Fountain of Rings, where water dances to music, and its lush lawns which host concerts and festivals throughout the year. It is the perfect central hub for groups who want to enjoy a picnic lunch between museum visits or simply take a breather outdoors.
If you are attending a major event at the park, such as the Fourth of July celebration or a music festival, parking is virtually nonexistent for personal vehicles close to the venue. A charter bus rental is the ultimate hack for these events. Your driver can drop your group off at a safe, accessible point on the perimeter of the park, allowing you to walk right into the action without fighting for a spot in an overpriced lot blocks away. Plus, with the climate-controlled cabin of your bus waiting for you afterward, you have a cool, comfortable place to retreat to after a hot day in the Georgia sun.
Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park
Atlanta is the cradle of the Civil Rights Movement, and no trip to the city is complete without paying respects at the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park. Located in the Sweet Auburn district at 450 Auburn Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30312, this site includes Dr. King’s birth home, the Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church, and his final resting place. It is a deeply moving experience that is perfect for church groups, educational field trips, and history buffs.
The streets in the historic Sweet Auburn district can be narrow and crowded, making it difficult for a caravan of cars to stay together. With a Charter Bus Atlanta rental, your group travels as a single unit. Your driver can navigate the one-way streets and drop you off right in front of the Visitor Center. While you take a guided tour of the birth home or walk through the International Civil Rights Walk of Fame, your bus will be parked securely nearby. This ensures that your group maintains a respectful and organized schedule, allowing you to focus on the history and legacy of Dr. King rather than logistics.
Atlanta Botanical Garden
For a change of pace, the Atlanta Botanical Garden offers an urban oasis right in the heart of Midtown. Located at 1345 Piedmont Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30309, adjacent to Piedmont Park, this 30-acre garden features the stunning Canopy Walk, the Edible Garden, and an impressive collection of orchids. It is a favorite venue for weddings, as well as a popular destination for holiday parties during the annual "Garden Lights, Holiday Nights" event.
Parking at the Botanical Garden is limited and can fill up rapidly during special events or beautiful spring weekends. By booking a wedding shuttle or a private group bus with Charter Bus Atlanta, you eliminate the parking anxiety for your guests. We can shuttle your wedding guests from their hotel directly to the garden entrance, ensuring everyone arrives on time for the ceremony. For holiday light tours, a heated charter bus with plush reclining seats is the perfect way to warm up after walking through the dazzling displays. Let us handle the driving while you stop to smell the roses (literally).
Zoo Atlanta
Home to one of the largest populations of great apes in North America and one of the few zoos in the U.S. housing giant pandas, Zoo Atlanta is a must-visit for animal lovers. Located in historic Grant Park at 800 Cherokee Ave SE, Atlanta, GA 30315, the zoo offers educational programs, ropes courses, and animal encounters that make it ideal for school field trips and youth groups. Navigating Grant Park’s residential streets with multiple vehicles can be tricky, but a charter bus simplifies the process immensely.
When you rent a bus with Charter Bus Atlanta for your zoo trip, you get plenty of storage space for coolers, packed lunches, and backpacks. We can arrange to drop your group at the main gate so you can maximize your time seeing the lions, tigers, and bears. If you are planning a birthday party or a family reunion at the zoo pavilions, a private minibus keeps the whole family together, ensuring Grandma and Grandpa travel in comfort with air conditioning and cushioned seats rather than navigating the parking lot trek.
The Fox Theatre
The "Fabulous Fox" is more than just a venue; it is a stunning piece of architecture and a historical landmark. Located at 660 Peachtree St NE, Atlanta, GA 30308, this Moorish-design theatre hosts Broadway shows, concerts, and ballets. For groups attending a performance, the Fox Theatre offers a night of elegance and culture. However, being located directly on Peachtree Street means traffic is heavy before and after shows, and parking decks can be pricey and slow to exit.
A private charter bus rental transforms a night at the theater into a VIP experience. Your group can enjoy cocktails or dinner at a nearby Midtown restaurant, and then your driver can drop you off right in front of the theatre's marquee. After the final curtain call, you simply hop back onto your waiting bus, bypassing the long lines of cars trying to exit the parking garages. Whether you are a senior group seeing Hamilton or a corporate team enjoying a comedy show, Charter Bus Atlanta ensures your evening remains sophisticated and stress-free.
Ponce City Market
For a taste of modern Atlanta mixed with history, Ponce City Market is the place to be. Located in the fully renovated historic Sears, Roebuck & Co. building at 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30308, this mixed-use development features a massive food hall, high-end retail shops, and a rooftop amusement park called Skyline Park. It sits right on the Atlanta BeltLine, making it a hub of activity. It is the perfect lunch stop for large groups because the food hall offers diverse options—from ramen to burgers—so everyone gets exactly what they want.
Parking at Ponce City Market is paid and can be complicated for first-time visitors. A charter bus rental makes visiting PCM easy. Your driver can drop your group at the North Avenue entrance, allowing you instant access to the food hall. While you eat, shop, or play mini-golf on the roof, your bus will wait off-site. When you are ready to leave, simply call your driver, and they will pick you up curbside. This convenience is unbeatable, especially for large corporate lunch outings or student groups touring the city.

Frequently Asked Questions About Atlanta Group Travel Transportation
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus in Atlanta?
Charter bus pricing varies based on several factors, including the size of the bus, the duration of your trip, the time of year, and the total mileage. For example, a trip during peak prom season or major conventions might cost slightly more than a trip in the off-season. Local trips are often billed by the hour (with a minimum hour requirement), while long-distance trips are billed by the day or mile. The best way to get an accurate price is to call our team at 334-694-0865. We can provide a free, no-obligation quote in minutes tailored to your specific itinerary.
Where does the bus park while we are at an attraction?
Parking logistics are handled by your driver, so you don't have to worry about it! In Atlanta, some attractions like the Georgia Aquarium or Zoo Atlanta have specific designated lots for motorcoaches. For venues that do not have on-site bus parking, your driver will drop you off at the entrance and then park at a nearby marshalling yard or designated street parking area. Your driver will stay in communication with your group leader to ensure they are back at the pickup spot exactly when you are ready to leave.
How far in advance should I book my Atlanta charter bus?
We recommend booking your bus as soon as your date and major details are confirmed. For peak seasons (typically spring and early summer) or major holidays, it is best to book at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and the best pricing. However, Charter Bus Atlanta has a large fleet, and we can often accommodate last-minute requests for corporate events or unexpected trips. Call us anytime, 24/7, to check availability for your dates.
What amenities are included on the bus?
Our fleet offers a wide range of amenities designed for comfort and productivity. Most full-size charter buses come equipped with reclining seats, air conditioning, onboard restrooms, and plenty of luggage storage. You can also request buses with WiFi, power outlets at every seat, and DVD players with flat-screen monitors. If you have specific needs—such as ADA accessibility or leather seats for a VIP experience—just let our reservation team know when you call 334-694-0865, and we will find the perfect vehicle for you.
