Limo Services

This year was a milestone in my daughter’s life.  She was finally going to get married to the man of her dreams.  After months and months of planning and tears and anger from all members of the family everything was figured out. Except one of the most important things: the transportation.  We had to figure out how to transport 25 people from our house to the church and then again to the reception.  After scouring the Internet for ideas we finally landed on several limos. 

While talking to one of the companies they explained that to keep my beautiful daughter and the rest of our family safe on this special day that we should probably buy limousine insurance.  Being the father that I am, pretty much clueless, I was unaware that there was even such a thing.  So after hours of hunting the internet and calling around I finally figured out the ins and outs.

I’m putting up this helpful guide in order to help the rest of the clueless patrons out there stay safe on their special days.

The most important thing that you need to know before buying limo insurance is that most states across the nation require limos to have liability insurance.  This type of insurance protects the drivers and owners of the limos against damage to people or property.  There are two types of liability insurance: combined single limit or split limit.

Basically combined single limit covers property and bodily injury.  Split limit covers a certain limit of injury and limits how much the insurance will pay out. 
The next piece of the puzzle is uninsured or under insured coverage.  In laymen’s terms this means if your limo is struck by someone who is uninsured or cannot afford the damage coverage the limo company will take care of the balance.

Finally there is full coverage or collision and comprehensive insurance.  Most companies carry this type of insurance because limos are expensive to run and maintain.  This insurance covers anything from crashes, bodily harm to any other mistake that may have been made on your special day.
   
From now on my rule of thumb is to ask the company what kind of insurance they have.  I want to make sure that nothing goes wrong with my special day and I’m sure you will too. Overall the wedding and the rides went off without a hitch.  You’ll be happy to know that my little girl is married and safely riding off the airport for her honeymoon. 

Why Choose a Charter Bus?

A long distance trip on a charter bus can be uncomfortable and time consuming. But, what if a charter bus company could offer comfortable seating, a smooth ride, friendly drivers, and full facilities?  Sounds like the perfect situation for going to visit grandma or a business trip. 

The most efficient way to travel long distances in a large group is on a charter bus.  Each charter bus experience is customized to fit your group, whether your group is taking a business trip to an important convention or your entire family has gathered for a meet up, they know exactly how to serve you for the perfect trip.  They will listen to you and your ideas and combine them with the best practices to create a trip of a lifetime for your group. 

One of the main objectives is to get to know each and every person that plants themselves in a seat.  On a regular bus you may get placed next to someone you dislike or have no desire to sit with.  That is why charter buses take the time to make sure that they can create a perfect match between you and your neighbor.  Most are more than willing to move patrons to different seats so that everyone can get the most out of their experience.  Maybe dear Aunt Maude keeps telling you about her days as a Canadian police officer and you just want to sleep. It’s okay! Completely understandable. Just move over next to Uncle Bill and drift into a comfortable, perfect sleep.

Long business trips can be tedious and dull.  But, they are also a great time for members of your company to bond and make life long friendships.  Placing your employees in “activity” groups allows them to bond, make new friends, and network with other departments.  Large companies and associations will benefit greatly from the time spent together on charter buses. 

Most charters come equipped with microphones and surround sound.  Whether it is a trip with your family, business associates, or friends these microphones come in handy.  Bring along trivia questions, whether it’s work related or just a fun competition, to test the knowledge of your fellow bus mates.  The speaker system allows for a fun game of trivia or maybe even send someone up to belt out some karaoke. 

Are your kids complaining about the long bus ride?  People have created many fun games that can be played on the road. Pit them against their seat partners to see who can come up with the most answers before their trip is over.   From iSpy to find the state plates, most charters are dedicated to keeping your youngsters out of trouble, happy and having fun. 

Taking a charter bus is a stress-free, no hassle way to travel.  Play games; make new friends, or just sleep.  Whatever you are looking for in your charter bus experience, it’s out there. 

Memorable Group Tour: Charter Bus Service

Planning a group tour or vacation including your extended family? If you’re looking to have an affordable, enjoyable, and comfortable trip, try using personal charter bus services. With a charter bus rental, you can schedule your own stops and get the most out of your trip. You are free to be with your group in a more intimate setting while having the luxury of controlling every aspect of the trip.

If traveling in a large group going on tour or on vacation, a charter bus is the perfect way to get you from one destination to the next. Buses have the capability to take you and your group anywhere in the country, literally. Buses hold up to 100 passengers; if you’ve got a group larger than that you may have to look into booking two buses, which means double the fun! Prices vary based on how far your group is traveling, unfortunately, the farther you go the higher the prices. What I’ve found, ironically, organizing a group tour will be less expensive than traveling solo.

Are you sick of traveling in confined uncomfortable spaces? Airplanes make me claustrophobic and I can’t stand breathing in stale air for multiple hours! Charter buses are built to provide passengers a comfortable travel space on their long distance journeys and have windows you can open! Each bus is equipped with televisions and DVD recorders to provide entertainment to travelers and allowing them to listen to music or watch movies if they please. Worried about pit stops? No need, lavatories are available on each bus. Do you tend to over-pack? Also not a problem with charter bus services, there is a very large luggage compartment to fit everything you’ve packed and more.

No matter what the reason for your trip; business, church, school, etc, a bus service can accommodate to your needs. Some tours have been pre-arranged to certain cities which is an added benefit if your group is interested in seeing multiple attractions and making the most of your journey. No matter what the reasoning for your tour, we stop where you stop and wait for you before continuing on to the next destination. Leaving your group with some unforgettable memories is our primary goal when traveling with charter bus.
