Local planning
Where we collect you. Roswell requests most often begin in Downtown Roswell, North Main, Country Club Estates and Dexter Highway area. Name the building and the entrance. Staging space and approach angle decide the pickup more than the postcode does.
Common destinations. Destinations named for Roswell include International UFO Museum & Research Center, Roswell Convention & Civic Center, Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art and Bottomless Lakes State Park. Each one loads differently. Ask the venue where a bus can wait, and agree a meeting corner in case the curb is taken when you come out.
Busy weekends. Local calendars around Roswell UFO Festival, Eastern New Mexico State Fair, Roswell Jazz Festival and UFO 5K Run concentrate demand into a handful of weekends. If your trip lands on one of these, book sooner than you think you need to.
What people book here. Downtown Roswell UFO museum tour; Roswell to Carlsbad Caverns day trip (1.5 hrs); Roswell to Ruidoso ski trip (2 hrs). List the stops in the order you want them and be realistic about the finish — that is what the price is built on.
Beyond Roswell. Trips that continue into Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Rio Rancho or Santa Fe are quoted as one itinerary. The New Mexico guide covers statewide staging and long-distance planning.
Roswell UFO Festival and Eastern New Mexico State Fair and other Roswell events come with street closures and organizer transportation notices; read them before locking a route. Choose a meeting point outside the heaviest foot traffic, set a firm departure deadline for the group, and expect traffic to compress well before the published start time.
Corporate groups using Roswell Convention & Civic Center are usually several movements rather than one headcount: hotel-to-venue transfers in waves, an evening event, and airport runs on different flights. List each movement with its own time and passenger count so the quote reflects the real number of vehicles and hours.
Bottomless Lakes State Park may not have large-vehicle access at every entrance, so confirm the usable gate, turnaround space, and closing time before the trip. Count coolers, gear, and extra luggage in the request, and keep a weather alternative ready; outdoor itineraries are the ones most likely to change on the day.
Vehicle fit
Pick by confirmed headcount, then by luggage and trip length. Your contract names the exact vehicle, its seating capacity and what is on board.
| Group size | Usual fit | Why | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6–14 passengers | Stretch limo or Sprinter van | Tight downtown streets, valet-style arrivals, and shorter time blocks. | See limousines |
| 14–24 passengers | Mid-size party bus | The most-requested size on our own sites; standing room, sound, and a restroom-free footprint that fits most venue curbs. | See party buses |
| 24–40 passengers | Large party bus or mini coach | Wedding shuttles, corporate transfers, and big birthday groups that need everyone on one vehicle. | Compare large buses |
| 40+ passengers | Full-size coach bus | Luggage bays, restrooms, and highway comfort for long days, tournaments, and multi-city itineraries. | See coach buses |
How pricing is built—hours, mileage, day of week, season, stops—is explained on the pricing page. Every quote is trip-specific and all-inclusive.

Questions
Yes. We run trips in Roswell and right across New Mexico with our own buses and our own chauffeurs. Booking is quick and it all happens by phone, live chat, or email, so you never have to drive anywhere to sort it out. Tell us the date, where you are starting, and where you are headed, and we will get you a price. The agreement is signed electronically once you are happy with it.
Every Roswell quote is priced for the specific trip: vehicle type, date and day of week, hours, mileage, group size, number of stops, and season all change the number. Quotes are all-inclusive—driver gratuity, taxes, fuel, and ordinary fees are in the written price; tolls and any specifically disclosed exceptions are listed separately. Ask for a written quote rather than relying on a range.
Party buses on the Bus 2 Ride fleet pages seat 8–45 passengers, limousines seat 8–22, shuttle and coach buses run 8–56. Go one size up from your headcount. Between the coolers and the coats it fills faster than people expect; Sprinters handle 8 to 14.
Yes. Multi-stop itineraries are the most common request in Roswell—for example, Downtown Roswell UFO museum tour or Roswell to Carlsbad Caverns day trip (1.5 hrs). List every stop in order with an expected wait time at each so the quote covers the full time block rather than a point-to-point estimate.
UFO Festival (July) is the only true peak; Eastern NM State Fair in fall adds moderate demand. Across Bus 2 Ride's own sites, groups request quotes a median of 30 days ahead, but Friday and Saturday dates around major local events tighten first. For Roswell UFO Festival and Eastern New Mexico State Fair, request a quote as soon as the date is fixed—4–8 weeks out is comfortable, and wedding groups typically ask three months or more ahead.
No. Sending the form starts it. We check what we have free on your date, send a written price, and the bus is yours once you sign. Roughly half up front, the rest before the trip — your agreement spells out the exact terms for Roswell.
Date, group size, and stops are enough to start. We check what is free on your date and come back with one all-in price for Roswell, NM.
