Northern California Wine Country Tours & Brewery Crawls from Chico Deserve a Designated Driver
Rather than splitting your group into a convoy of designated drivers for a weekend wine tour through Lodi, a craft brewery crawl in Sacramento's Midtown, or a vineyard-hopping day trip to Napa Valley, rent a charter bus so your group can travel together without coordinating a convoy. Chicocharterbus.com connects Chico groups with winery tour buses and party buses from a large network of independent providers, so everyone stays together, nobody plays designated driver, and the celebration starts the moment you board.

Corporate Groups and Conference Attendees Departing Chico Need Reliable Long-Distance Shuttles
Get your executive team, conference delegation, or corporate retreat group from Chico to SAFE Credit Union Convention Center (1400 J St, Sacramento, CA 95814), the Moscone Center (747 Howard St., San Francisco, CA 94103), or any other Northern California venue without the chaos of coordinating a dozen rental cars. Chicocharterbus.com makes it easy to compare corporate charter bus rentals from a network of independent operators serving Chico, with vehicles ranging from executive sprinter vans for small leadership teams to full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches for larger company groups. At Moscone Center, North and West shuttle cutouts require advance confirmation and the cutouts are for loading and unloading, not parking. Your group can plan a building-specific pickup and drop-off instead of counting on a parking spot at the venue.
Events using the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center's full J Street frontage for attendee pickup or drop-off need a Transportation Management Plan that addresses loading, parking, and transportation such as buses. For your group, that means coordinating the bus pickup through the event plan rather than assuming the full frontage is available. Fill out one quick form to compare packages and pricing, or call 530-767-8550 any time for a custom quote!
Multi-Day Charter Bus Packages Let Chico Groups Travel Farther Without the Stress
You're never limited to a single-day rental when your group's itinerary demands more. Multi-day long-distance packages are available through Chicocharterbus.com's network of independent bus companies, perfect for Chico groups planning extended trips to Los Angeles, Portland, Las Vegas, or any destination that requires an overnight stay. Federal hours-of-service rules allow up to 10 hours of driving after 8 consecutive hours off duty, so factor hotel accommodations into multi-day itineraries that require additional driving time.
A live support team is available 365 days a year at 530-767-8550 to walk you through multi-day bus pricing, overnight logistics, and everything else your long-distance trip requires. Because Chicocharterbus.com connects you with a large network of bus companies, you're never stuck with whatever one fleet has available! Using one platform to organize an extended trip is a no-brainer.
