A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Historic Downtown Carrollton
If you want to experience the soul of the city, there is no better place to start than Historic Downtown Carrollton (1106 S Broadway St, Carrollton, TX 75006). This charming square offers a nostalgic step back in time with its early 20th-century architecture, independent boutiques, and diverse dining options. It is a fantastic destination for wedding parties looking for a unique rehearsal dinner spot, or corporate groups seeking a relaxed atmosphere for team building.
Your group can spend the afternoon browsing through antique shops, grabbing a slice of wood-fired pizza at Cane Rosso, or enjoying a sweet treat at Beth Marie's Old Fashioned Ice Cream. The square also hosts regular events, such as the Festival at the Switchyard, which draws massive crowds. Parking in the historic district can be scarce, especially during weekends and festivals. When you rent a minibus from Charter Bus Carrollton, your driver can drop your group off right at the entrance of the square, allowing you to dive straight into the fun without circling for a spot. When you're ready to leave, your bus will be waiting to whisk you away to your next destination.
A.W. Perry Homestead Museum
For educators and history buffs, the A.W. Perry Homestead Museum (1509 N Perry Rd, Carrollton, TX 75006) is an absolute must-visit. Set within a beautiful 10-acre park, this museum offers a glimpse into life in North Central Texas during the turn of the 20th century. The restored 1909 home features original furnishings and historical artifacts that tell the story of the Perry family and the development of Carrollton.
This is a prime destination for school field trips. Forget the hot, uncomfortable yellow school bus; upgrade your students to a modern charter bus rental from Charter Bus Carrollton. With onboard TV monitors and a DVD player, you can show educational documentaries on the way to the museum to prepare students for what they are about to see. The museum grounds are also a popular spot for photo sessions and outdoor picnics. Your bus will have plenty of undercarriage storage for picnic coolers, educational materials, and backpacks, keeping the aisles clear and safe for your students.
Rosemeade Rainforest Aquatic Complex
Beat the Texas heat with a group trip to the Rosemeade Rainforest Aquatic Complex (1334 E Rosemeade Pkwy, Carrollton, TX 75007). This isn't your average community pool; it features a zero-depth entry pool, a lazy river, water slides, and a splash pad, making it perfect for summer camps, church youth groups, and birthday parties.
Transporting a large group of energetic kids to a water park requires serious organization. With Charter Bus Carrollton, you can keep the entire group together, ensuring that no one gets lost en route. After a long day of swimming and sliding under the sun, there is nothing better than stepping onto an air-conditioned charter bus. Your group can dry off, recline in their seats, and rest during the ride home. Our buses offer ample storage for wet towels, change of clothes, and pool gear, so you don't have to worry about cluttering the seating area.
Elm Fork Nature Preserve
Located within the McInnish Sports Complex, the Elm Fork Nature Preserve (2335 Sandy Lake Rd, Carrollton, TX 75006) provides a serene escape into nature right in the middle of the city. This 40-acre preserve is ideal for scout troops, biology classes, and nature enthusiasts. Trails wind through the forest, offering opportunities to spot local wildlife like armadillos, owls, and beavers.
Because the preserve is located near major sports fields, the parking lots can get incredibly crowded during tournament seasons. A private charter bus rental allows your group to bypass the parking headache entirely. Your driver can drop you off at the trailhead and park the bus in a designated oversized vehicle area. If you are planning a day of hiking followed by a sports tournament at McInnish, our buses are perfect for transporting teams and their equipment seamlessly between the trails and the fields.
Nickel Mania
For affordable, retro family fun, Nickel Mania (2661 Midway Rd #218, Carrollton, TX 75006) is a local legend. This arcade operates on real nickels and features a mix of classic and modern games, making it a hit for nostalgic adults and kids alike. It is a popular venue for birthday parties, youth group lock-ins, and school reward trips.
Coordinating a convoy of parents to transport twenty or thirty excited kids to an arcade can be chaotic. Simplify your planning by booking a minibus or school trip charter bus with Charter Bus Carrollton. One of the best features of Nickel Mania is that you can bring your own food and drinks. Our buses have plenty of storage space to transport pizzas, coolers of soda, and birthday cakes safely to the venue. Plus, with a driver, parents can relax and chat instead of worrying about navigating traffic on Midway Road.
Indian Creek Golf Club
If you are planning a corporate outing or a bachelor party, Indian Creek Golf Club (1650 W Frankford Rd, Carrollton, TX 75007) offers 36 holes of championship golf. Recognized as one of the top public golf courses in the DFW metroplex, it features two distinct courses: the Creek Course and the Lakes Course, offering challenges for golfers of all skill levels.
Golf bags are bulky and difficult to fit into standard sedans or rideshares. A full-size charter bus rental from Charter Bus Carrollton features spacious undercarriage luggage bays that can easily accommodate dozens of golf bags, ensuring your clubs arrive in pristine condition. After a day on the links, your group can enjoy a few drinks at the clubhouse knowing that a designated driver is waiting to take you back to your hotel or to a dinner reservation in Dallas. Impress your corporate clients with an executive minibus shuttle that offers leather seating and charging ports for a VIP experience.
Carrollton Asian Town
For foodies, a trip to Carrollton Asian Town (located near the intersection of Old Denton Rd and President George Bush Turnpike) is non-negotiable. This bustling district is a sensory explosion, featuring some of the best Korean BBQ, sushi, boba tea shops, and Asian bakeries in Texas. It is anchored by the massive H Mart and features dozens of restaurants and karaoke bars.
This area is incredibly popular, and the parking lots are notoriously jammed, especially on weekends and evenings. Don't let parking frustration ruin your appetite! Hire a private shuttle bus from Charter Bus Carrollton to drop your dining group right at the storefronts. Whether you are doing a multi-stop food tour or heading to a specific venue for a karaoke night, drivers will handle the logistics while you enjoy the culinary delights. A minibus is the perfect size for navigating these busy plazas while keeping your group together.

Frequently Asked Questions About Carrollton Group Travel Transportation
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus in Carrollton?
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 distance traveled. For example, a local day trip will be priced differently than a multi-day interstate journey. To get the most accurate price, we recommend calling our reservation team at 945-294-2650. We provide free, transparent quotes tailored to your specific itinerary with no added fees.
Can we bring food and drinks on the bus?
Yes, you are allowed to bring food and drinks on our buses! We recommend sticking to snacks and beverages that are less likely to make a mess (avoid glass bottles if possible).
Do you service areas outside of Carrollton?
Absolutely! While we love serving our local Carrollton community, Charter Bus Carrollton operates throughout the entire Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and beyond. Whether you need a charter bus to Dallas, a shuttle to Fort Worth, or a long-distance charter to Austin, Houston, or San Antonio, we have you covered. We can even facilitate out-of-state trips for sports teams and corporate groups.
Is there storage space for luggage or equipment?
Yes, our full-size charter buses come equipped with spacious undercarriage storage bays that are perfect for luggage, sports equipment, musical instruments, or trade show materials. Inside the cabin, there are overhead bins for personal items like backpacks and purses. If you are renting a minibus, storage space may be more limited, so be sure to discuss your equipment needs with our team so we can match you with the right vehicle.
How far in advance should I book my bus?
We recommend booking your charter bus as soon as your travel dates are confirmed. For peak travel seasons (such as spring and summer) or major holidays, it is best to book at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best rates. However, we understand that last-minute trips happen, and our 24/7 team will do everything possible to accommodate short-notice requests.
