A few of the companies we’ve worked with
The Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and Promenade
No trip to the Grand Strand is complete without a visit to the iconic Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. Stretching 1.2 miles along the oceanfront from the 14th Avenue North Pier to the 2nd Avenue North Pier, this wooden walkway is the heartbeat of downtown Myrtle Beach. It is home to the famous SkyWheel Myrtle Beach (1110 N Ocean Blvd, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577), which towers nearly 200 feet above the Atlantic, offering breathtaking panoramic views. Your group can enjoy arcades, souvenir shops, and classic seaside snacks like funnel cakes and saltwater taffy. For lunch or dinner, venues like RipTydz Oceanfront Grille & Rooftop Bar (1210 N Ocean Blvd, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577) offer plenty of space for large parties.
Parking near the Boardwalk, particularly during the summer months or during events like the Carolina Country Music Fest, is notoriously difficult and expensive. Public lots fill up fast, and street parking is scarce. When you book a charter bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Myrtle Beach, your driver can drop your group off right near Plyler Park or a designated loading zone along Ocean Boulevard. Your group can step right out into the action while your driver handles parking the bus at a remote lot. When you are ready to leave, just a quick call brings the bus back to the curb for a seamless pickup.
Broadway at the Beach
Address: 1325 Celebrity Cir, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
Broadway at the Beach is South Carolina's most popular travel destination, and it is an absolute must for groups. This massive outdoor entertainment complex features unique shopping, outstanding dining, and world-class attractions all centered around a 23-acre lake. It is home to Ripley's Aquarium of Myrtle Beach, WonderWorks, and the Hard Rock Cafe. For nightlife, "The Avenue" at Broadway offers a cluster of bars, clubs, and dueling piano venues perfect for bachelor and bachelorette parties. Whether you are taking students to the aquarium or treating your corporate team to a dinner at Paula Deen's Family Kitchen, there is something here for everyone.
While there is ample parking at Broadway, the complex is huge. Getting a caravan of 10 cars to park near each other is nearly impossible, and walking from one end to the other can be tiring, especially for seniors or young children. A private shuttle bus rental allows you to designate specific drop-off and pick-up points closest to your chosen attractions. If your group wants to split up—with some heading to Topgolf and others shopping—your charter bus can act as a shuttle, circling the complex to keep everyone moving comfortably. Plus, with a driver, your group can enjoy the nightlife on The Avenue without worrying about designated drivers.
Brookgreen Gardens
Address: 1931 Brookgreen Garden Dr, Murrells Inlet, SC 29576
Located just south of Myrtle Beach in Murrells Inlet, Brookgreen Gardens is a National Historic Landmark and a stunning cultural destination. It features the largest collection of American figurative sculpture in the country, displayed amidst spectacular botanical gardens. It also houses the Lowcountry Zoo, focusing on native animals of the South Carolina Lowcountry. It is a fantastic destination for senior tour groups, school educational trips, and wedding parties looking for a sophisticated and scenic backdrop. The "Nights of a Thousand Candles" event in December is a major draw, transforming the gardens into a twinkling wonderland.
Brookgreen Gardens is about a 30 to 40-minute drive south of central Myrtle Beach via US-17. Coordinating a convoy of cars down the highway can be stressful, and you risk attendees getting separated at traffic lights. A charter bus rental keeps your group cohesive. The ride down allows your tour guide or group leader to use the onboard PA system to give a history lesson on the Lowcountry or simply let passengers relax in reclining seats. We can arrange drop-off right at the Welcome Center, ensuring guests with mobility issues have the easiest access possible.
The Market Common
Address: 4017 Deville St, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
For a more upscale, relaxed urban village atmosphere, take your group to The Market Common. Built on the grounds of the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, this beautifully designed district offers high-end retail shops, a movie theater, bowling, and some of the best dining in the city. It’s surrounded by parks, lakes, and walking trails, making it a great spot for a leisurely afternoon. It is an excellent destination for corporate spouses' outings or a relaxed day of shopping for wedding guests before the big event.
The Market Common is designed to be walkable once you are there, but getting a large group there from North Myrtle Beach or the hotel strip can be a trek. A minibus rental is perfect for this. Your driver can drop your group off at Grand Park for a picnic or directly in front of the shops on Deville Street. You’ll have plenty of storage space in the overhead bins for shopping bags, and the climate-controlled cabin offers a welcome respite from the South Carolina humidity after a day of walking.
Barefoot Landing
Address: 4898 Hwy 17 S, North Myrtle Beach, SC 29582
Situated along the Intracoastal Waterway in North Myrtle Beach, Barefoot Landing is a sister complex to Broadway at the Beach but offers a slightly more laid-back, rustic atmosphere. It features the Alabama Theatre, House of Blues Myrtle Beach, and Alligator Adventure. It’s a prime spot for groups who want dinner and a show. You can enjoy a meal at Greg Norman Australian Grille overlooking the water and then walk over to catch a live concert or a variety show.
Traffic crossing into North Myrtle Beach on Highway 17 can get heavy, especially in the late afternoon when everyone is heading to dinner shows. A charter bus rental lets your group bypass the stress of driving. Your driver can drop you right at the entrance of the Alabama Theatre or House of Blues, saving your group from long walks across the parking lots. If you are attending a concert at the House of Blues, a party bus is the ultimate way to pre-game comfortably and ensure everyone gets back to their hotel after the encore.
Myrtle Beach State Park
Address: 4401 S Kings Hwy, Myrtle Beach, SC 29575
Sometimes you just want to escape the neon lights and high-rises. Myrtle Beach State Park offers a pristine mile of beach, a fishing pier, and a maritime forest with nature trails. It’s perfect for school biology field trips, church picnics, or family reunions that want a traditional beach day with picnic shelter facilities. It’s one of the few places along the Grand Strand where you can see the coast exactly as it looked before major development.
State parks charge entry fees per vehicle, and parking lots can fill up quickly on weekends. By consolidating your group into one charter bus, you streamline the entry process (check with the park regarding bus entry fees beforehand). Our charter buses come with massive undercarriage storage bays, which are perfect for hauling coolers, beach chairs, umbrellas, fishing gear, and picnic supplies—items that would cramp a standard car or SUV. After a long day in the sun and sand, there is nothing better than stepping into a cool, air-conditioned bus for the ride home.
The Carolina Opry Theater
Address: 8901 N Kings Hwy, Myrtle Beach, SC 29572
Voted the "Top Attraction in Myrtle Beach" by CNBC, The Carolina Opry Theater is a landmark of the local entertainment scene. Calvin Gilmore’s variety show blends high-energy music, comedy, and dance in a 2,200-seat theater. It’s a staple for tour groups and senior travel organizations. In November and December, their "Christmas Show of the South" is a massive draw, bringing in busloads of visitors from all over the country.
Coordinating arrival for a specific showtime with a large group in separate cars is a recipe for disaster. If one car gets stuck in traffic, your whole group is delayed. A charter bus ensures everyone arrives simultaneously. The theater is very bus-friendly, with specific drop-off lanes. Your driver will drop you at the front doors and be waiting right there when the curtain closes. Plus, the onboard restrooms on our full-size coaches are a great convenience before sitting down for a two-hour performance.
Family Kingdom Amusement Park
Address: 300 S Ocean Blvd, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
For a dose of nostalgia, head to Family Kingdom Amusement Park. It’s a classic seaside amusement park featuring the Swamp Fox wooden roller coaster and a variety of thrill rides and kiddie rides right on the oceanfront. It’s a favorite for youth groups, sports teams celebrating a tournament win, and graduation trips.
Located right on Ocean Boulevard, traffic here is bumper-to-bumper during the season. Navigating multiple vehicles through this area is stressful and dangerous for keeping a group together. A bus rental keeps your headcount secure. We can arrange a drop-off point that avoids the worst of the boulevard traffic, getting your thrill-seekers to the rides faster. Your bus acts as a central meeting hub, and the air-conditioning provides a comfy haven if the summer heat becomes too intense.
