A few of the companies we’ve worked with
The Casements (The Rockefeller Home)
No trip to Ormond Beach is complete without visiting its most famous residence, The Casements (25 Riverside Dr, Ormond Beach, FL 32176). Known as the winter home of oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller, this historic mansion is an architectural gem set right on the banks of the Halifax River. Groups can tour the restored home to see period memorabilia, Rockefeller's personal effects, and the Boy Scout historical exhibit. The surrounding Rockefeller Gardens offer a lush, manicured landscape perfect for a leisurely group stroll or a picnic lunch by the water.
Parking in the historic district can be tight, especially when there are weddings or cultural events taking place at the venue. When you rent a charter bus from Charter Bus Rental Company Ormond Beach, your driver can drop your group off right at the front entrance, allowing immediate access to the tours. While your group explores the history of the Gilded Age, your bus will handle the parking logistics. Afterward, your passengers can board a cool, climate-controlled bus—a welcome relief from the Florida humidity—before heading to the next stop on your itinerary.
Tomoka State Park
For groups interested in nature, history, and outdoor recreation, Tomoka State Park (2099 N Beach St, Ormond Beach, FL 32174) is a must-visit destination. Located a few miles north of the city center, this 2,000-acre park was once home to the Timucuan Native Americans. Today, it is a haven for bird watchers, hikers, and history buffs. Your group can visit the massive statue of Chief Tomokie, explore the nature trails, or set up a group picnic under the shade of ancient live oaks draped in Spanish moss. The park is also a prime spot for renting canoes or kayaks to explore the Tomoka River.
Traveling to state parks with a large group often requires hauling coolers, hiking gear, and picnic supplies. A full-size charter bus rental provides ample undercarriage storage, meaning you won’t have to cram equipment onto laps or in crowded trunks. Plus, the high vantage point of a motorcoach offers excellent views of the marshes and wildlife along North Beach Street as you approach the park entrance. Charter Bus Rental Company Ormond Beach can coordinate with park rangers regarding bus entry fees and designated oversized parking areas to ensure a seamless entry.
Andy Romano Beachfront Park
If your group wants the quintessential Florida beach experience without the chaos of the main tourist strips further south, Andy Romano Beachfront Park (839 S Atlantic Ave, Ormond Beach, FL 32176) is the ideal location. This 4-acre park offers direct beach access, a splash pad for younger travelers, clean restrooms, and covered picnic pavilions. It is widely considered one of the best public beach access points in Volusia County because of its amenities and accessibility.
However, the parking lot at Andy Romano Beachfront Park is notoriously competitive and often fills up early in the morning. By booking a minibus or charter bus, you bypass the need to hunt for ten different parking spaces. Your driver can drop your group curbside with all your beach chairs and umbrellas, then park off-site until you are ready to leave. After a day in the sun and sand, there is nothing better than retreating into the air-conditioned comfort of a private bus rental, where you can relax in reclining seats and recharge your devices using onboard power outlets on the way to dinner.
Ormond Memorial Art Museum & Gardens
Located in the heart of downtown, the Ormond Memorial Art Museum & Gardens (78 E Granada Blvd, Ormond Beach, FL 32176) is a cultural sanctuary dedicated to war veterans. The museum features rotating exhibits of local and national art, while the surrounding rainforest-like gardens offer a serene escape with turtle ponds, waterfalls, and winding paths. It is an excellent destination for senior groups, art clubs, and educational field trips looking for a quieter, reflective experience.
Navigating Granada Boulevard during peak hours can be stressful for drivers unfamiliar with the area. With Charter Bus Rental Company Ormond Beach, your group can enjoy door-to-door service. This is particularly beneficial for groups with mobility concerns, as our fleet includes ADA-accessible buses upon request. We can drop your passengers near the garden entrance so they can enjoy the art and nature without a long walk from a distant parking garage.
The Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail
Sometimes, the journey is the destination. The Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail—locally known simply as "The Loop"—is a 30+ mile double loop of roadways that traverse some of the most beautiful natural scenery in Northeast Florida. The route takes you through tunnels of live oak trees, past expansive marshes, and along the Atlantic Ocean. It offers unobstructed views of the diverse ecosystems that make this region unique, including barrier island dunes and historic sugar mill ruins.
While many people drive The Loop in convertibles or on motorcycles, experiencing it from a charter bus offers a unique advantage. The large, panoramic windows of a modern motorcoach allow every passenger an unobstructed, elevated view of the scenery. Plus, with a driver navigating the winding roads of Highbridge Road and Walter Boardman Lane, everyone in your group can focus on taking photos and spotting wildlife rather than watching the road. It’s the perfect relaxing activity for corporate groups or family reunions.
Destination Daytona
Just west of Ormond Beach at the intersection of US-1 and I-95 lies Destination Daytona (1637 N US Hwy 1, Ormond Beach, FL 32174), a massive complex anchored by Bruce Rossmeyer’s Harley-Davidson. Even if you aren't a motorcycle enthusiast, this complex is a major attraction featuring restaurants, retail shops, a luxury hotel, and a massive pavilion that hosts concerts and events throughout the year. It is a high-energy destination perfect for large groups looking for entertainment, food, and shopping all in one place.
For large corporate events or bachelor parties heading to Destination Daytona for a concert or festival, a party bus rental is the ultimate travel solution. You can keep the energy high with onboard entertainment systems, LED lighting, and AUX sound systems while you travel. Plus, having a designated driver ensures that your group can enjoy the bars and restaurants at the complex responsibly before heading back to your hotel or the next stop on your itinerary.
Bulow Creek State Park
History and nature collide at Bulow Creek State Park (3351 Old Dixie Hwy, Ormond Beach, FL 32174), home to the Fairchild Oak, one of the largest live oak trees in the South. For groups interested in the Old Florida landscape, this park offers hiking trails that lead to the ruins of the Bulow Plantation, a sugar plantation destroyed during the Second Seminole War. The park provides a quiet, educational atmosphere for school groups and history tours.
The park is located somewhat off the beaten path, making navigation tricky for those in separate cars. A charter bus rental ensures your group stays together and doesn't get lost on the way to the trailheads. The drivers navigate the local roads of Volusia County and will ensure you arrive comfortably. With plenty of overhead storage for backpacks and water bottles, your group will be prepared for a day of exploration.
Shopping and Dining on Granada Boulevard
Granada Boulevard serves as the main artery of Ormond Beach, stretching from the mainland across the Halifax River to the barrier island. This corridor is lined with boutique shops, cafes, and some of the city's best restaurants, ranging from upscale dining to casual beachside grills. Whether your group wants to grab a burger at Grind Gastropub (49 W Granada Blvd, Ormond Beach, FL 32174) or enjoy seafood with a view near the bridge, this is the place to be.
Parking along Granada can be scarce, especially on weekends and evenings. By booking a minibus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Ormond Beach, you can arrange for a convenient drop-off right in the center of the action. Your group can split up to shop and dine at their leisure, then meet the bus at a pre-arranged time and location for pickup. This flexibility allows you to enjoy the vibrant downtown atmosphere without the headache of feeding parking meters or walking blocks to your car.

Can we bring food and drinks on the bus?
Yes, most of our charter buses allow food and drinks on board. We want you to be comfortable! However, we ask that you avoid glass containers and messy foods to keep the bus clean for your group and future passengers. If you plan to bring alcoholic beverages, please let your reservation specialist know in advance, as this is often permitted for groups where all passengers are of legal drinking age, though a refundable cleaning deposit may apply.
Do your buses have WiFi and power outlets?
Yes! We understand the importance of staying connected. Most of the buses in our fleet—from minibuses to full-size coaches—are equipped with modern amenities including high-speed WiFi and power outlets at every seat. You can also request vehicles with reclining seats, flat-screen TVs, and DVD players. If these amenities are a priority for your group, please mention them when booking so we can match you with the perfect vehicle.
How far in advance should I book my Ormond Beach bus rental?
To ensure the best availability and pricing, we recommend booking your charter bus as soon as your travel dates are finalized. Ideally, you should aim to book at least 3 to 6 months in advance. However, if you have a last-minute trip, don't hesitate to call us! Our large fleet often allows us to accommodate short-notice requests, getting you the transportation you need even in a pinch.
Is there a restroom on the bus?
Full-size charter buses (typically seating 56 passengers) come equipped with an onboard restroom for your convenience, making them perfect for longer trips or all-day events. Smaller vehicles, such as minibuses and sprinter vans, usually do not have restrooms due to their compact size. If a restroom is a requirement for your group, please let our reservation team know, and we will ensure you are paired with the appropriate motorcoach.
