14 Passenger Sprinter Limo
The 14-passenger Sprinter limo is the move for smaller groups that still want an arrival worth talking about — think bridal party pickups on the morning of the wedding, executive transfers downtown on Salina Street, or a tight group heading to a sold-out show at The Landmark Theatre. Rates typically run $200–$325/hour on weekdays and $225–$350/hour on weekends, with per-day options from $1,550–$3,150. Call 680-895-3210 for exact pricing on your date.
Common features may include:
- Climate Control
- Bluetooth Sound System

Sprinter Van Rental with Driver
Need to move a smaller team without the party-bus footprint? The Sprinter Van Rental with Driver is a clean, practical fit for corporate airport runs to Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR), hotel-to-venue shuttles during conference season, or a tight family group heading out on I-90 to Rochester. Weekday hourly rates run $200–$275, weekend rates $225–$375, and per-day bookings range from $1,400–$2,750.

15 Passenger Party Bus
The 15-passenger party bus is one of the most popular options for smaller Syracuse groups — a bachelorette group bar-hopping through Armory Square, a birthday group hitting Destiny USA before a late night out, or a tailgate group riding together to a Syracuse Orange home game at the Dome instead of hunting for metered parking on Irving Avenue. Weekday rates run $200–$350/hour, weekends $250–$350/hour, and per-day from $1,400–$2,850.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
18 Passenger Party Bus
An 18-passenger party bus is a great fit when your group is slightly larger than a Sprinter can handle but you still want a single vehicle keeping everyone together. Perfect for a corporate happy hour circuit through the Armory Square bar scene, a Sweet 16 night out, or a group headed to a concert at Empower FCU Amphitheater at Lakeview without sorting out parking along Willow Bay Drive. Weekday rates start at $275/hour, weekends from $275–$400/hour, per-day $2,100–$2,600.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
20 Passenger Party Bus
The 20-passenger party bus hits a sweet spot for mid-size groups — big enough that splitting into cars becomes a genuine headache, small enough to keep the energy tight. Wedding guest shuttles between a hotel block on Erie Boulevard and a reception venue in the suburbs, a corporate outing to a Syracuse Chiefs game at NBT Bank Stadium, or a prom group rolling through DeWitt and Fayetteville — this is the vehicle. Weekday rates $250–$350/hour, weekends $275–$350/hour, per-day $1,950–$2,800.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
25 Passenger Party Bus
A 25-passenger party bus is where the full-group experience really kicks in — wraparound seating, LED lighting, premium sound, and everyone on the same ride from the first stop to the last. Runs to Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona (about 35 minutes east on I-90 to Route 365) are a natural fit, as are bachelorette itineraries starting in Armory Square and ending somewhere on the North Side. Weekday rates $250–$350/hour, weekends $275–$375/hour, per-day from $1,850–$2,900.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
28 Passenger Party Bus
The 28-passenger party bus is the right call when your headcount lands between a standard party bus and a minibus — enough room for a comfortable wedding guest shuttle loop, a full sports travel group, or a company outing where nobody wants to carpool on I-81. Especially useful for groups heading from the university area to venues in Camillus or Liverpool where parking is easier but the drive is not. Weekday rates $250–$350/hour, weekends $275–$375/hour, per-day $2,150–$2,700.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
30 Passenger Party Bus
The 30-passenger party bus is built for the kind of group where keeping everyone on one vehicle is non-negotiable — large family reunions, milestone birthday celebrations, or fan groups heading to JMA Wireless Dome for a primetime Orange game when parking along South Crouse Avenue is already gone two hours before kickoff. Comfortable seating, climate control, and a sound system that actually keeps up. Weekday rates $300–$375/hour, weekends $325–$425/hour, per-day $2,350–$3,050.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
40 Passenger Party Bus
A 40-passenger party bus makes the most sense when your group is large enough that a single standard party bus won't cut it but you'd rather not coordinate two vehicles. State Fair groups heading to the Great New York State Fair at the State Fairgrounds on State Fair Boulevard — where parking runs around $12 and lots fill early during the final weekend — love this option. Weekday rates $300–$350/hour, weekends $325–$500/hour, per-day $2,300–$3,500.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
50 Passenger Party Bus
When the group hits 50, the 50-passenger party bus keeps everyone under one roof and on one timeline. Corporate event groups shuttling between the Oncenter Convention Center on South State Street and downtown hotels, large concert groups heading to Empower FCU Amphitheater, or a massive graduation party circuit — this is the vehicle that makes it manageable. Weekday rates run $300–$450/hour, weekends $325–$500/hour, per-day from $2,150–$4,050.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
15-35 Passenger Minibus
The 15–35 passenger minibus is the workhorse of corporate and school travel — reclining seats, overhead storage, climate control, and enough maneuverability to navigate tighter drop-off zones that full-size buses can't reach. School field trips to the Erie Canal Museum or MOST (Milton J. Rubenstein Museum of Science and Technology), employee shuttle circuits, or airport groups connecting through SYR — the minibus handles all of it cleanly. Weekday rates $200–$250/hour, weekends $200–$275/hour, per-day $1,100–$2,150.
Common features may include:
- Climate Control
- Bluetooth Sound System
- PA System
- Overhead Luggage Racks
40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
For the biggest groups and the longest hauls, a 40–56 passenger charter bus is the answer — undercarriage storage for luggage, onboard restrooms for runs down the Thruway, and enough capacity to move an entire sports roster, a church group, or a conference delegation in a single trip. Teams traveling to away games, corporate groups heading to Albany or Rochester for the day — the charter bus handles the distance without the pit-stop scramble. Weekday and weekend rates both run $200–$350/hour, per-day from $1,350–$2,850.
