Most private party buses are designed to comfortably fit anywhere from 10 up to 30 guests, making them a smart pick for birthdays, bachelorettes, and big group celebrations. Whether you’re rolling with just your closest circle or rallying the whole crew, you’ll find options sized just right—without feeling like you’re crammed into a sardine can.
If you have a larger group, there are even full-size party buses (think Prevost or Grech Coach) that can accommodate 40 or more. For most Nashville outings, though, groups of 10–30 are the sweet spot for a lively, roomy ride.
Wondering if the whole crew can fit? Our luxury party bus comfortably seats up to 20 passengers—plenty of room for birthdays, bachelor or bachelorette squads, or just rallying your favorite people for an unforgettable night on the town. Everyone has a spot, so no need to pick favorites.
The best part? You don’t need to wait for business hours or play endless rounds of phone tag. With Rowdy Bus, you can lock in your reservation online 24/7—whether you’re planning a Friday night bash or a Tuesday afternoon adventure. Grab your phone, visit our site, and secure your spot in minutes, even if it’s the weekend or after hours.
For our public (per-person) tours, there’s a minimum: at least 10 guests are needed for the ride to be confirmed. If you grab a single ticket or just a few spots, don’t worry—you won’t be charged unless enough partiers sign up to reach the magic number. If the minimum isn’t met, the tour won’t run, and you’ll keep your cash. So, rally your crew or join the waitlist and let the good times come together!
You can book your Rowdy Bus adventure any day of the week—yes, even that late-night burst of inspiration counts. Our booking system is always online and ready when you are, whether you’re planning at midnight or over your lunch break.
