It's the right-sized vehicle for wedding guest shuttles between downtown Raleigh hotels and venues like The Merrimon-Wynne House (500 N Blount St, Raleigh, NC 27604), corporate team shuttles between the Raleigh Convention Center (500 S Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC 27601) and nearby hotels, or group airport transfers to and from Raleigh-Durham International Airport (2400 John Brantley Blvd, Morrisville, NC 27560).

A quick shuttle between NC State's Carter-Finley Stadium (4600 Trinity Road, Raleigh, NC 27607) and downtown hotels will price out very differently than a full-day corporate outing or a multi-stop wedding weekend itinerary. On game days, bus parking passes must be purchased in advance, and buses enter Gate E to park around PNC Arena; buses without a pass cannot be accommodated. Want to skip the guesswork?
