TOP Coach Bus Destinations in Richmond

Providing Coach Bus Rentals For All Events & Attractions in Richmond

Richmond is one of Virginia’s most popular destinations for group travel, thanks to its rich history, thriving arts scene, and beautiful outdoor spaces. Whether you’re planning a school field trip, corporate outing, wedding, or private tour, Richmond Coach Bus Service will help you explore the best that Richmond has to offer. Keep reading to learn more about our top ten destinations in and around the city!

The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (vmfa)

The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is one of the largest comprehensive art museums in the United States—and it’s completely free to visit! Your group can explore more than 5,000 years of art from around the world, including ancient Egyptian artifacts, European masterpieces, and an impressive collection of Fabergé eggs. The museum also hosts rotating exhibitions, film screenings, and special events throughout the year.

If you’re traveling with a large group, Richmond Coach Bus Service can drop you off right at the entrance on North Arthur Ashe Boulevard and pick you up when you’re ready to leave. Parking for oversized vehicles is available in the VMFA’s main lot, but it fills up quickly during peak hours. We recommend scheduling your visit on a weekday morning or afternoon for the best experience.

Maymont

Maymont is a 100-acre historic estate and public park that offers something for everyone. Your group can tour the beautifully restored Gilded Age mansion, stroll through Japanese and Italian gardens, visit native wildlife exhibits, and enjoy a picnic by the carriage house. Maymont is a popular destination for school field trips, family reunions, and wedding photoshoots.

Charter buses are not allowed to park inside the main entrance on Hampton Street, but there is a designated drop-off zone where passengers can disembark safely. After dropping off your group, your driver can park the bus along nearby streets or return at a scheduled pick-up time. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes, as the grounds are expansive and hilly in some areas.

Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden

Located in Henrico County just north of downtown Richmond, Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden is a stunning 50-acre oasis featuring themed gardens, walking trails, and a glass conservatory filled with exotic plants. Highlights include the Rose Garden, Children’s Garden, and Asian Valley. The garden hosts seasonal events such as Butterflies LIVE!, Dominion Energy GardenFest of Lights, and outdoor concerts.

Richmond Coach Bus Service makes it easy to plan a group visit to Lewis Ginter. We’ll drop you off at the main entrance on Lakeside Avenue and wait in the designated bus parking area until your tour is finished. Group rates are available for parties of 15 or more, and advance reservations are recommended during peak seasons.

Historic Downtown Richmond

Experience the heart of Richmond by exploring its historic downtown districts, including Shockoe Slip, Shockoe Bottom, and Capitol Square. Highlights include the Virginia State Capitol designed by Thomas Jefferson, St. John’s Church where Patrick Henry gave his famous “Give me liberty or give me death!” speech, and the Edgar Allan Poe Museum dedicated to the legendary writer’s life and works.

Navigating downtown streets can be challenging for large vehicles, but our drivers are experts at maneuvering through tight spaces and busy intersections. We’ll coordinate drop-offs and pick-ups at convenient locations near your itinerary stops, so your group can focus on enjoying the sights without worrying about traffic or parking meters.

Richmond National Battlefield Park

History buffs won’t want to miss a visit to Richmond National Battlefield Park, which preserves key sites from the Civil War’s Eastern Theater. The park encompasses more than 3,000 acres across multiple units, including Chimborazo Hospital, Fort Harrison, Cold Harbor, and Glendale. Interpretive centers feature exhibits, artifacts, and ranger-led programs that bring the past to life.

Since the park’s sites are spread out over several miles, having a private bus is the most efficient way to see them all in one day. Your charter bus can transport your group between visitor centers and trailheads while providing a comfortable place to rest and recharge between stops. Pack a lunch and enjoy it at one of the park’s picnic areas surrounded by history.

Science Museum of Virginia

Located in the former Broad Street Station, the Science Museum of Virginia offers interactive exhibits on physics, chemistry, engineering, and natural history. Highlights include the Dome theater, which screens planetarium shows and IMAX films, as well as hands-on labs where visitors can conduct experiments and build prototypes. The museum is ideal for school groups and STEM enthusiasts of all ages.

Charter bus parking is available in the museum’s surface lot off West Broad Street, with additional space for overflow vehicles. Groups should allow at least two hours to explore the exhibits and catch a show in the Dome. Don’t miss the outdoor displays of vintage locomotives and aircraft on the museum grounds.

Kings Dominion

If your group is looking for thrills, head north on I-95 to Kings Dominion, Virginia’s premier amusement park. With more than 60 rides, shows, and attractions—including 12 roller coasters and a 20-acre water park—there’s no shortage of excitement here. Popular coasters include Intimidator 305, Twisted Timbers, and Dominator. Planet Snoopy offers kid-friendly fun for younger visitors.

Richmond Coach Bus Service provides direct transportation to Kings Dominion’s group entrance, where your party can enter together and receive discounted admission rates. Buses are permitted to park in a designated lot near the front gate for the duration of your visit. Remember to stay hydrated and wear sunscreen, especially during the summer months.

Busch Gardens Williamsburg

For another great theme park option, take your group east to Busch Gardens Williamsburg. This European-themed park features world-class roller coasters, live entertainment, animal encounters, and authentic cuisine from countries like Germany, Italy, and France. Seasonal events such as Howl-O-Scream and Christmas Town draw visitors from across the region.

Traveling with Richmond Coach Bus Service means you won’t have to worry about navigating I-64 or paying for parking at Busch Gardens. We’ll handle all the logistics while you relax and enjoy the ride. Group packages are available for schools, churches, and corporate outings, with customizable options to fit your schedule and budget.

Colonial Williamsburg

Step back in time with a visit to Colonial Williamsburg, the largest living history museum in the United States. Costumed interpreters reenact daily life in the 18th century, demonstrating crafts such as blacksmithing, weaving, and cooking over open fires. Explore historic buildings, attend court sessions, and interact with characters from America’s revolutionary past.

Charter buses are welcome at the Regional Visitor Center, where guests can purchase tickets, pick up maps, and board shuttles into the historic area. The visitor center also offers restrooms, gift shops, and dining options for groups. Plan to spend at least half a day exploring the sights and sounds of colonial Virginia.

Virginia Beach Oceanfront

No trip to eastern Virginia would be complete without a day at the beach! The Virginia Beach Oceanfront boasts three miles of sandy shoreline, a lively boardwalk, and plenty of restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues. Swim in the Atlantic, rent bikes or surreys, and catch free concerts at Neptune’s Park during the summer months.

While parking near the oceanfront can be challenging, Richmond Coach Bus Service will drop your group off close to the action and arrange a convenient pick-up location when you’re ready to head home. Enjoy the sun, surf, and sea breeze without the hassle of driving or finding a spot for your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Richmond Coach Bus Rentals

Richmond Coach Bus Service offers one of the largest fleets in Richmond, with vehicles for every group size and itinerary. You can book a 56-passenger charter bus from top brands like MCI, Van Hool, or Prevost—perfect for long-distance trips to Washington, DC or Virginia Beach—with amenities like WiFi, power outlets, restrooms, and luggage bays. For smaller groups, we have minibuses that seat 15 to 35 people from Grech Motors, Battisti Customs, and LGE Coachworks, ideal for corporate shuttles between downtown Richmond and Short Pump or wedding transportation in The Fan. We also offer party buses (10–50 passengers) built by Tiffany, Grech, and Executive Coach Builders, sprinter vans (10–15 passengers), and school buses. Let us know your headcount and destination, and we’ll match you with the right vehicle.

Bus rental prices in Richmond depend on several factors, including the type of vehicle, trip duration, mileage, and time of year. Charter buses typically cost $145–$550+ per hour or $1,520–$5,000+ per day. Minibuses range from $150–$450+ per hour or $1,520–$3,465+ per day.

Call 804-773-7155 for an instant quote tailored to your itinerary.

Several factors influence the cost of your bus rental: vehicle size (larger buses cost more), trip length (both hours and miles), number of days, and how far in advance you book. Peak season (April–June and September–December) is more expensive due to high demand from graduations, weddings, and fall events. Special features like onboard restrooms, extra luggage space, or luxury finishes may increase the rate. Local traffic patterns—such as rush hour on I-95 or Broad Street—can affect total mileage and time, impacting your quote. One-way trips to cities like Norfolk or Charlottesville may have different pricing than round-trips.

Our fleet includes buses with a wide range of amenities to keep your group comfortable and entertained. Charter buses feature reclining seats, climate control, free WiFi, power outlets or USB ports, TV monitors with DVD players, PA systems, and large undercarriage luggage bays. Many models have onboard restrooms for fewer stops on long trips. Minibuses offer similar amenities in a smaller package—great for navigating Richmond’s narrow streets in Shockoe Bottom or Church Hill. Party buses come with hardwood floors, wraparound seating, color-changing LED lights, Bluetooth sound systems, flat-screen TVs, and coolers for drinks. Sprinter vans have high-back seats, WiFi, and optional tables. If you need ADA accessibility, let us know when you book.

We provide transportation for every type of event and group across Central Virginia. Common uses include wedding shuttles between venues like Maymont and Main Street Station, corporate commuter routes from Midlothian to downtown offices, school field trips to the Science Museum of Virginia or Colonial Williamsburg, and sports team travel for VCU basketball games or youth tournaments in Chesterfield. We also handle private parties, brewery tours in Scott’s Addition, concert trips to Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater, church retreats, and multi-day excursions to Washington, DC, or the Outer Banks. Whatever your schedule, we’ll keep your group moving together.

The fastest way to get a quote is to call our team at 804-773-7155. We’re available 24/7 to help you plan your trip and answer any questions. You’ll need to provide your travel dates, pickup and drop-off locations, headcount, and any special requests (like WiFi or ADA access). We’ll build a custom package and give you an exact price in minutes. You can also fill out the online form on our website, and we’ll reply ASAP. Quotes are free, with no obligation to book.

Richmond has several designated areas for charter bus parking, but it’s important to plan ahead, especially for large events or downtown destinations. For visits to the Virginia State Capitol or museums along East Broad Street, there are bus drop-off zones near 9th and Broad, with long-term parking available at the Diamond (3001 N Arthur Ashe Blvd) or the Main Street Station surface lot. If you’re heading to Brown’s Island for a festival or concert, buses can unload passengers at Tredegar Street and park at nearby surface lots. Always check with your venue about specific parking instructions, as some locations may require advance permits or reservations. For trips outside the city center, many hotels and event spaces in Henrico and Chesterfield counties offer oversized vehicle parking.

Your quote covers the use of the bus for the specified hours or days, fuel, standard amenities (WiFi, TVs, climate control), and mileage based on your itinerary. Tolls, parking fees, and gratuity are not included—plan to cover those separately. If your trip requires the bus to stay overnight outside Richmond, you’ll need to arrange lodging for the driver. We do not require deposits or charge cancellation fees. Once you receive your quote, the price is locked in and won’t change unless you modify the itinerary.

We recommend booking your bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months before your event—to get the best selection and rates. Spring and fall are especially busy due to weddings, graduations, and football season, so vehicles sell out fast. Last-minute rentals are available, but options may be limited and prices higher. If you’re planning a major event like a festival shuttle or multi-day tour, reserve your bus as soon as you have the dates locked in. For weekday corporate shuttles or off-season travel, 4 to 8 weeks’ notice is usually sufficient.
