We have a range of large vehicles available for transporting your group, from a 6-passenger van to a 56-seat biodiesel tour bus. We even have a comfortable and fun sleeper bus. In addition, some of our drivers can also serve as environmental educators.

All vehicles, of course, are powered by biofuels. Our van runs on ethanol, and all buses run on biodiesel.

Fuel for local or in-state trips will likely be B100 (100% biodiesel). Trips out of state may require using B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petroleum diesel), depending on what fueling stations are available.

EcoVan

Shuttles up to 6 passengers happily and comfortably. Good for small tours. Runs on ethanol.


BioBus

Our smallest "bus" is a 1971 Mercedes Benz bus that comfortably transports 15 passengers, but can fit up to 18, depending on the size of the passengers.


Transit Bus

Your basic solution to getting up to 30 people from point A to point B. This bus has luggage racks for passengers' convenience.


MetroTrans Bus

Seats up to 34 passengers and also has luggage racks. This bus is for transport within the Triangle only (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and other local towns) [why? would make uses clearer]. Sorry, no long-distance trekking with this buss. It's still a great bus, though, and could, for example, get your party from event to reception in dandy fashion.


Tour Buses

We have three tour buses, which seat 44, 48, and 56 people. Each comes with a PA system. They are built for comfort, with plus-sized seats and on-board bathrooms.


Party Bus

This is quite a bus, with on-board stereo system, extra-wide seats, bathrooms, and sleeper berths for up to 11 sleeping passengers. You can basically live on this bus.

It's a little more trouble and expense for us (and our driver), but sometimes the Party Bus is what you need. Be sure to read the rates & notes carefully so you won't be surprised.
