Group Transportation to Busch Gardens

National Charter Bus has access to one of the largest networks of motorcoaches in the region to transport groups of all sizes to events at Tampa's premier theme park. From large school groups to relatively small corporate groups, National Charter Bus will find the best form of group transportation for all of your travel needs. If you're traveling with multiple school classes, renting a 56-passenger full-sized charter bus is the best transportation solution for your large academic group. We also have the resources to build a custom fleet of buses for your school trip to Busch Gardens. Even if you're planning a family event like a vacation or big reunion, we have access to various models of minibus for your trip. Forget the hassle of waiting on family members to arrive or organizing a caravan of multiple vehicles. A minibus rental will keep everyone together throughout the entire trip for a day of family fun at Busch Gardens.

Traveling with a large group of students can be stressful, so why not make the trip a little easier with a modern charter bus built for comfort and efficiency? Choose a bus equipped with amenities like WiFi, televisions with DVD players, reclining seats, on-board restrooms, and more, to make your Tampa trip even better. Students won't have to endure traveling in a traditional school bus in Florida's hot and humid weather. Cool off in a climate-controlled bus after a long day of enjoying rides and animal encounters.

Busch Gardens also offers a variety of event space rentals for private events like corporate meetings, holiday parties, business award ceremonies, and similar gatherings. Reserving group transportation options for colleagues to attend a unique occasion at Busch Gardens will help your event run smoothly, no matter the size. Providing a shuttle bus will give colleagues or special guests a VIP experience for your big business event. Shuttle buses will also help them avoid the hassle and costs associated with parking at a busy theme park. Your professional driver will handle the pickup and dropoff process for whatever your event may be, so your guests can focus on enjoying the afternoon or evening.

Busch Gardens Travel Tips

The theme park stretches across 335 acres, including a 65-acre Serengeti Safari experience. If you only have an afternoon in the park, be sure to follow a few of these tips:

Prioritize attractions according to your group's interests. Visitors can generally split Busch Gardens attractions into two categories: thrill rides and animal encounters. If your group is excited by roller coasters, stick to the most popular rides first as the lines can get long. If animals are more your speed, be sure to pre-register for available animal tours and experiences.
Dress appropriately. Florida weather is notoriously finicky, especially in the spring and summer months. Dress in comfortable shoes since you'll be doing a lot of walking, and plan for hot weather in the spring and summer. Winter and fall visitors may want to bring a light jacket, as Tampa can dip below freezing temperatures on rare evenings.
Consider a Quick Queue. The Busch Gardens Quick Queue functions the same way as a Fast Pass at other theme parks. The price of a Quick Queue depends on the time of year. During peak season, the passes can vary between $50-80 a guest. Lines for popular coasters like Cheetah Hunt can often peak at one-hour wait times during summer months. If you're a group of adrenaline junkies looking to ride each roller coaster during the park's peak season, a Quick Queue may be worth the investment.
Don't forget to catch a show. Although these aren't usually the first stop for visitors, many of these shows are a fun way to beat the beaming Florida heat. Enjoy everything from elaborate concerts to family-fun time with popular Sesame Street characters.
Timing is everything. The animals tend to be most active when temperatures have cooled down, which is usually in the early morning and early evening. Arriving right when the park opens will give your group more time to explore and beat the crowds, but you may not get a glimpse of some furry friends until much later in your visit.

Take on the Rest of Tampa

Busch Gardens isn't the only popular attraction in Tampa! The theme park can get very busy, and that isn't always ideal for large groups planning a trip. There are plenty of other locations in Tampa and the surrounding area that offer both entertaining and educational opportunities for all types of groups. Wherever you choose to plan your trip, you can rely on National Charter Bus to safely transport everyone from beginning to end.
