Local planning
Planning group transportation in Port Arthur
Where we collect you. Port Arthur requests most often begin in Downtown Port Arthur, Lakeshore Drive, Griffing Park and Pear Ridge. A street address beats a neighborhood every time. Where a 40-foot vehicle can stop is a narrower question than where you live.
Common destinations. Destinations named for Port Arthur include Museum of the Gulf Coast, Janis Joplin memorial, Pleasure Island, Buu Mon Buddhist Temple and Sea Rim State Park (nearby). Loading rules vary by venue. Pick a meeting corner up front so nobody is hunting for the bus at the end of the night.
Book these early. Local calendars around Mardi Gras of Southeast Texas (shared with Beaumont), CavOILcade Festival, Shrimp Festival and Vietnamese Mid-Autumn Festival concentrate demand into a handful of weekends. Availability tightens around them, so get the date held rather than shopping it.
Itineraries groups ask about. Port Arthur to Beaumont (20 min); Port Arthur to Houston (90 min); Pleasure Island waterfront loop; Cajun restaurant crawl. List the stops in the order you want them and be realistic about the finish — that is what the price is built on.
Beyond Port Arthur. Trips that continue into Houston, San Antonio, Dallas or Austin are quoted as one itinerary; see the Texas guide.
Festivals, concerts, and parades in Port Arthur
