Onboard Restrooms
Many of our 18-passenger minibuses are equipped with clean, convenient onboard restrooms, so you won’t have to make unnecessary stops during your trip. This feature is especially useful for longer drives to Fredericksburg wineries, Lake Travis resorts, or wedding venues outside the city limits.
Onboard TVs
Keep your group entertained with flat-screen TVs and DVD players on every bus. You can screen a corporate training video on the way to a conference at the Austin Convention Center, play a movie for kids during a school field trip to the Thinkery, or watch highlights of last night’s Longhorns game en route to DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium.
Power Outlets
Never worry about your phone or laptop running out of battery during your trip. Our minibuses feature multiple power outlets and USB ports at every seat, so you can stay charged and productive whether you’re commuting from Round Rock, working remotely between client meetings downtown, or live-tweeting a concert at Moody Amphitheater.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Beat the Texas heat with advanced climate control systems that keep the cabin cool and comfortable even on the hottest summer days. Each row has its own adjustable air vents, allowing passengers to set their preferred temperature whether you’re stuck in I-35 traffic or cruising down Mopac Expressway.
Leather Seating
Relax in plush, ergonomic seats upholstered in high-quality leather or fabric, depending on the model. With generous legroom, reclining backs, and optional armrests, you’ll ride in comfort from pickup to drop-off—whether your destination is a boardroom in Westlake Hills or a barbecue joint in Lockhart.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Communicate clearly with your entire group using the built-in PA system. Tour guides can narrate points of interest along South Congress, team leaders can relay instructions before a corporate retreat in Dripping Springs, and wedding planners can coordinate timing for bridal party arrivals at Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.
