Airport transfers: IND, FWA. University shuttles: Purdue, IU, Notre Dame. Corporate events: Indiana Convention Center. Sports teams: Lucas Oil, Gainbridge Fieldhouse. School field trips, church groups, private tours, and more.
Seasonality & Timing
Spring and Fall are peak seasons due to academic schedules and major sporting events. Summer sees demand for family reunions and vacation tours. Winter requires reliable heating and road-ready vehicles for comfortable travel.
