Local planning
Where we collect you. Staten Island requests most often begin in St. George, Tottenville, Great Kills and New Dorp. Send the exact address, including which side of the street. That is what sets the drive time we quote you.
Where groups go. Destinations named for Staten Island include Staten Island Ferry terminal, Empire Outlets, Snug Harbor Cultural Center, Richmond County Bank Ballpark and Staten Island Museum. 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.
Book these early. Local calendars around St. George Waterfront events, Staten Island Yankees games, Richmond County Fair and Staten Island Half Marathon concentrate demand into a handful of weekends. Availability tightens around them, so get the date held rather than shopping it.
Itineraries groups ask about. Forest Avenue Italian restaurant crawl; St. George waterfront to Manhattan via party bus (over Verrazzano); Staten Island to NJ Shore via Outerbridge; South Beach and Midland Beach boardwalk loop. Give us the full sequence rather than the highlights; the last stop is usually the one that moves the number.
Beyond Staten Island. Trips that continue into Albany, Amherst, Binghamton or Bronx are quoted as one itinerary. The New York guide covers statewide staging and long-distance planning.
Richmond County Bank Ballpark set the schedule for game-day groups in Staten Island: the official start time fixes the arrival window, and the exit crowd fixes the pickup. Ask the venue where commercial vehicles stage, agree on one post-event meeting corner that everyone can find, and give the driver a 30–45 minute cushion after the final whistle rather than a fixed minute.
For a Staten Island night out anchored on Forest Avenue Italian restaurant crawl, fix the stop order and the last pickup time before requesting a quote, and name one group contact for the driver. Curb space is not guaranteed at busy venues, so agree on a pickup corner a short walk away, and check each venue's group entry policy so a bus full of people is not turned away at the door.
Richmond County Fair and Italian Festival on Forest Avenue and other Staten Island 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.
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.
From our own booking data
Staten Island does not yet have 25 company-owned-site requests with a usable city field, so we do not publish Staten Island-only group size or lead-time figures. These nationwide numbers still apply to how groups size vehicles and when they request a quote.
Groups that end up on a coach or shuttle bus are typically 35 people, with the middle half running 25 to 50.

Questions
Yes. We run trips in Staten Island and right across New York 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 Staten Island 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. Round up rather than down. Luggage and coolers eat seats, and a Sprinter covers 8 to 14 if you want something that parks easily.
Yes. Multi-stop itineraries are the most common request in Staten Island—for example, Forest Avenue Italian restaurant crawl or St. George waterfront to Manhattan via party bus (over Verrazzano). 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.
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 St. George Waterfront events and Staten Island Yankees games, 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 Staten Island.
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 Staten Island, NY.
