Did You Know?

What's the best way to plan a multi-stop party bus route?

Map out your stops in geographic order to minimize drive time between venues. Share the itinerary with your driver in advance so they can plan parking and timing. Limit stops to 3–4 for a 4-hour rental — too many stops eat into your party time. Your driver is a great local resource for route advice.

Did You Know?

Where did the word "limousine" come from?

The term "limousine" originates from the Limousin region of France. Early motor cars had a covered compartment for passengers and an open driver's seat — the driver's hooded cloak resembled those worn by shepherds in Limousin. By the early 1900s, the name stuck for any luxury chauffeured vehicle.
