A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Tempe Town Lake & Beach Park
An oasis in the middle of the desert, Tempe Town Lake is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Arizona. This man-made reservoir offers a stunning contrast to the surrounding red rocks and city skyline. It is the perfect spot for corporate team-building events involving kayaking or paddleboarding, or for school groups attending one of the many festivals held here, such as the Innings Festival or the massive Oktoberfest celebration.
Getting a large group to the lake can be tricky regarding parking, especially during major events when lots fill up fast. When you book a bus rental with Charter Bus Tempe, your driver can drop your group off right near the entrance at 80 W Rio Salado Pkwy, Tempe, AZ 85281. After a day in the sun, there is nothing better than stepping onto a climate-controlled bus, grabbing a cold drink from your onboard cooler, and relaxing in a reclining seat while your driver handles the traffic exiting the park.
Mill Avenue District
If your group is looking for the heartbeat of the city, head to the Mill Avenue District. Located in downtown Tempe just steps from ASU, this historic street is packed with restaurants, shops, breweries, and nightlife. It is a fantastic destination for bachelor and bachelorette parties, alumni gatherings, or just a fun night out with friends. The district is pedestrian-friendly, but getting there and back comfortably is paramount.
Avoid the hassle of finding a designated driver or splitting your group into expensive rideshares. Rent a minibus or party bus from Charter Bus Tempe to serve as your dedicated shuttle for the evening. Your driver can pick you up from your hotel and drop you off at the intersection of Mill Ave & University Dr, Tempe, AZ 85281. Whether you are grabbing a burger at a local pub or dancing the night away, knowing your ride is waiting for you makes the night stress-free.
Arizona State University (ASU) Campus
Home to the Sun Devils, the main campus of Arizona State University is a city within a city. It is a hub for innovation, culture, and, of course, sports. We frequently work with high school counselors organizing campus tours for prospective students, as well as academic departments hosting conferences. A charter bus rental is the most efficient way to tour the sprawling campus, moving easily between the Memorial Union, the incredible ASU Library, and the various colleges.
For sports fans, we offer specialized game day transportation to Mountain America Stadium (formerly Sun Devil Stadium) for football games or Mullett Arena for hockey. Tailgating is a breeze when you have undercarriage storage for your tents, chairs, and coolers. We can drop your group off right near the action at 500 E Veterans Way, Tempe, AZ 85287, and pick you up after the final whistle, saving you from the nightmare of game-day parking fees and gridlock.
ASU Gammage
For lovers of the arts, a visit to ASU Gammage is a must. Designed by the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright, this architectural marvel is one of the premier venues in the country for touring Broadway shows, concerts, and theatrical performances. It is a favorite destination for senior citizen groups, theater clubs, and cultural tour groups.
Navigating the circular drive and parking structures at Gammage can be intimidating for individual drivers, especially before a sold-out show like Hamilton or The Lion King. With Charter Bus Tempe, your group receives VIP treatment. Your driver will drop you off curbside at 1200 S Forest Ave, Tempe, AZ 85281, allowing your group to head straight to their seats while the bus parks off-site. Once the curtain falls, your bus will be ready to whisk you away to a post-show dinner or back to your accommodations.
Papago Park & Hole in the Rock
Just north of Tempe Town Lake lies Papago Park, a stunning expanse of desert landscape that offers easy hiking trails and incredible views. The most famous landmark here is "Hole in the Rock," a natural geological formation that offers a perfect frame for the Phoenix sunset. It is a fantastic stop for photography clubs, family reunions, and outdoor enthusiasts.
While the hike itself is relatively easy, the Arizona heat is no joke. Having a charter bus waiting with high-powered A/C makes a world of difference after a hike. Plus, Papago Park is home to the Phoenix Zoo and the Desert Botanical Garden, making it easy to create a full-day itinerary. Your driver can transport you between these adjacent attractions with ease. The park entrance is located at 625 N Galvin Pkwy, Phoenix, AZ 85008.
Tempe Marketplace
For a shopping and dining extravaganza, bring your group to Tempe Marketplace. This open-air shopping center features over 100 shops and restaurants, along with a vibrant outdoor stage featuring live music. It’s an ideal stop for tour groups looking for a lunch break, student groups on a trip, or corporate teams looking for a casual dinner outing.
With 1.3 million square feet of retail space, there is a lot of ground to cover. A private charter bus allows your group to store their shopping bags securely in the overhead bins or luggage bays, keeping their hands free for more shopping! We can arrange a convenient pickup and drop-off point near the District Stage at 2000 E Rio Salado Pkwy, Tempe, AZ 85281, so you don’t have to carry heavy bags across the massive parking lots.
Tempe Diablo Stadium
Spring Training is a massive event in Arizona, and Tempe is home to the Los Angeles Angels at Tempe Diablo Stadium. Every March, fans flock to the city to enjoy baseball in the beautiful weather. It is a prime destination for corporate outings, family vacations, and die-hard fan clubs. The atmosphere is electric, but the traffic can be intense.
Charter Bus Tempe specializes in sports transportation. We can pick up your group from Sky Harbor Airport or your hotel and take you straight to the ballpark at 2200 W Alameda Dr, Tempe, AZ 85282. Your bus serves as the ultimate tailgating headquarters before the first pitch. Enjoy the game with a hot dog and a cold drink, knowing you have a designated driver ready to take you comfortably to your next destination.
LEGOLAND Discovery Center Arizona
If you are traveling with a younger crowd, perhaps for a field trip, summer camp outing, or a kid's birthday party, the LEGOLAND Discovery Center at Arizona Mills is a top-tier destination. It features rides, a 4D cinema, and millions of LEGO bricks to spark creativity. It is an indoor attraction, making it a perfect escape from the midday sun.
Coordinating a dozen parents in separate cars can be a logistical headache. A school bus or minibus rental keeps all the kids, chaperones, and teachers together, ensuring no one gets lost en route to 5000 S Arizona Mills Cir, Ste 135, Tempe, AZ 85282. Our buses can come equipped with DVD players and flat-screen TVs, so you can put on a LEGO movie to get the kids excited during the drive!
