How to Get Around

There are a lot of options for traveling around Dallas, but not all offer the right solution for group transportation. While many people rely on DART, taxis, and rideshare apps, these options can’t accommodate groups easily and costs can quickly add up.

Renting a personal bus for your group is the most efficient and cost-effective solution for every member of your group. Avoid your group getting separated, lost, or disbanded with a bus rental dedicated to your personalized trip.

As the top-rated bus rental company in the state of Texas, Longhorn Charter Bus will make the whole process easy. Our network of bus rentals includes a wide variety of options, ranging from compact minibuses all the way to spacious motorcoaches.
