A few of the companies we’ve worked with
National Museum of the U.S. Air Force
If there is one absolute "must-see" destination in Dayton, it is the National Museum of the United States Air Force. As the world's largest and oldest military aviation museum, this facility is located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and offers a staggering collection of more than 360 aerospace vehicles and missiles. For school field trips, veteran reunions, and history tour groups, this is the crown jewel of Dayton tourism.
Your group can walk through four massive hangars that cover the history of flight from the early years to the space age. Highlights include the Memphis Belle, a B-29 Superfortress, and the Presidential Gallery, where you can walk through the actual aircraft used by Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, and more. Because the campus is so expansive, walking from the parking lot to the entrance can be a trek. When you book a charter bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton, your driver can drop your group off right at the front entrance. We can easily accommodate large school groups with multiple 56-passenger charter buses, ensuring every student and chaperone arrives together and on time. There is ample bus parking available, making this one of the most bus-friendly attractions in the state.

Carillon Historical Park
Dayton is the birthplace of aviation, but its history of innovation goes far beyond just airplanes. Carillon Historical Park is a 65-acre open-air history museum that serves as the perfect destination for educational tours and private sightseeing groups. The park features over 30 historic buildings and structures, showcasing the region's contributions to transportation and technology.
The centerpiece of the park is the Wright Brothers Aviation Center, which houses the 1905 Wright Flyer III—the only airplane designated a National Historic Landmark. Groups can also see the first automobile self-starter, a 19th-century schoolhouse, and the massive Deeds Carillon bell tower. Visiting an open-air museum with a large group can be tricky if everyone drives separately, as parking can fill up quickly during special events like the "A Carillon Christmas." A private minibus rental ensures your group stays together. Plus, after a long day of walking the grounds, your group will appreciate the air-conditioned comfort of a private bus waiting to take them to dinner or back to the hotel.

The Dayton Art Institute
Perched atop a hill overlooking downtown Dayton and the Great Miami River, The Dayton Art Institute is as architecturally stunning as the art it houses. Founded in 1919, the museum's building was modeled after the Villa d'Este near Rome and the Villa Farnese at Caprarola, making it a beautiful backdrop for wedding photos and corporate events. Inside, the collection spans 5,000 years of art history, including impressive Asian, African, and American collections.
For wedding parties, the Dayton Art Institute is a premier venue. However, navigating the hill and finding parking can be difficult for guests dressed in formal wear. Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton specializes in wedding shuttle services. We can transport your guests from their hotels to the museum for the ceremony and reception, ensuring everyone arrives safely and on time. No one has to worry about navigating unfamiliar city streets or finding a designated driver after the champagne toast. Whether you are visiting for a guided art tour or a private gala, a charter bus adds a touch of elegance and convenience to your visit.

Boonshoft Museum of Discovery
For groups traveling with children, the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery is the ultimate destination in Dayton. This unique facility combines a science center, a natural history museum, a children's museum, an aquarium, and a fully enclosed zoo all under one roof. It is a favorite spot for elementary school field trips, scout troops, and summer camps.
Coordinating transportation for dozens of energetic children requires safety and organization. A school bus might be the traditional choice, but a modern charter bus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton offers a significant upgrade. With onboard DVD players and TV monitors, you can keep the kids entertained with educational movies during the drive. Plus, with onboard restrooms available on our larger coaches, you can minimize unscheduled pit stops. We will handle the logistics of drop-off and pick-up at the DeWeese Parkway entrance so teachers and chaperones can focus on keeping the kids engaged and accounted for.

The Oregon District
If your group is looking for entertainment, dining, and nightlife, look no further than the Oregon District. This historic neighborhood, located just east of downtown, features some of Dayton's best preserved Victorian-era architecture. Today, the brick-lined streets are bustling with eclectic boutiques, art galleries, coffee houses, bars, and some of the city's top-rated restaurants like Salar Restaurant and Lounge or The Trolley Stop.
This is the perfect destination for bachelor and bachelorette parties, corporate team-building dinners, or birthday celebrations. Parking in the Oregon District can be scarce, especially on weekends when the streets are busy. By booking a minibus or sprinter van with Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton, you eliminate the need for parking altogether. Your driver can drop your group off right at the corner of 5th Street and Wayne Avenue, allowing you to explore the district on foot. Best of all, having a private charter bus means you have a built-in designated driver for the entire evening, ensuring everyone gets back home or to the hotel.

2nd Street Market
For a taste of local flavor, the 2nd Street Market is a fantastic stop for tour groups and foodies. Operated by Five Rivers MetroParks, this enclosed market is located in a historic freight house and features dozens of local vendors selling fresh produce, artisan breads, cheeses, flowers, and handmade crafts. It is a vibrant community hub that offers a great lunch stop for groups touring the city.
The market is particularly busy on Saturday mornings. Trying to coordinate a convoy of cars to find parking in the nearby lots can be a nightmare. A charter bus rental simplifies this experience. Your driver can drop your group curbside, where you can spend an hour or two sampling local treats and shopping for souvenirs. There is plenty of overhead storage on our buses for any goodies you pick up. Once everyone has had their fill of local cuisine, your bus will be waiting to whisk you away to your next destination.
600 E 2nd St, Dayton, OH 45402
Schuster Performing Arts Center
The Benjamin and Marian Schuster Performing Arts Center is the heartbeat of Dayton's performing arts scene. Home to the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, Dayton Opera, and Dayton Ballet, this world-class venue also hosts traveling Broadway shows and major concerts. The architecture itself is a marvel, featuring a "starfield" ceiling in the Wintergarden that depicts the Dayton sky as it appeared on the eve of the Wright Brothers' first flight.
This venue is a popular destination for senior citizen groups, theater clubs, and corporate galas. Arriving in a luxury charter bus sets the tone for a sophisticated evening. Instead of your group members walking long distances from parking garages in formal attire (possibly in inclement weather), Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton provides door-to-door service. We can arrange a pick-up after the show, so your group can discuss the performance while relaxing in reclining seats on the ride home.
1 W 2nd St, Dayton, OH 45402
Cox Arboretum MetroPark
Escape the city bustle without leaving Dayton at the Cox Arboretum MetroPark. This 189-acre facility is a sanctuary of trees, shrubs, and special plant collections. Groups can explore the Butterfly House, walk the trails through the hardwoods, or climb the Tree Tower for a panoramic view of the grounds. It is an excellent location for photography clubs, nature lovers, and anyone seeking a peaceful retreat.
For wedding ceremonies, the Arboretum is a top choice in the region. If you are planning a wedding here, consider a wedding shuttle bus to transport guests from the ceremony at the Arboretum to a reception venue downtown. This keeps your timeline running smoothly and ensures out-of-town guests don't get lost navigating between locations. Our buses have ample storage for photography equipment, picnic supplies, or wedding decorations, making your day at the park effortless.
