Do you find the kids being restless midway through the vacation? We have a solution for that. Right in the middle of the holiday, the kids start missing home, so, give them something fun and exciting to do instead…like a stop at Midway Sports and Entertainment Park!

US Coachways Detroit charter bus rental customers have raving reviews about their visits. ‘The kids loved the rock climbing and Go Karts. It has everything to revive the holiday mood just when they are starting to miss their friends, computers, television sets and bed. So, we always have something fun to do in the middle of the vacation,’ says Linda, a regular traveler who has been using US Coachways for business and personal reasons.

Apart from go-karting and rock-climbing, which are rather risky games too risky for the toddlers, there are stuff like miniature golf, bumper cars and water wars there too. Let the kids loose and let them choose their preferred activity and remember not to hawk over them. Let them take control over that bumper car and offer your advice only when asked.

Midway offer birthday packages too, so, ask them for their special promotional prices beforehand. And in the meantime, if you need a shuttle bus for your large event or party, US Coachways is more than ready to provide you with a hassle-free Detroit charter bus rental quote.

The Real American – A One Man Show

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 21:39:20 -0600

When it comes to art and culture in San Francisco, not many will disagree with us when we say that we are unique even in our own country. While New York may be known for its fast pace work life and being a big believer of dreams, San Francisco floats above the rest of the cities in the country for…being a little different. We are ‘notoriously’ known for being the first city to vote for making gay marriages legal. While other cities approached the topic gingerly.

Basically, San Francisco makes for a great vacation spot just because of the above fact…and more. There appears to be no ‘your typical American culture’ here in this city and it is so amazing to trail the development of the city over countless years through mere visits to museums and not to mention through art too.

‘The Real American’ is a show that just ended recently and our San Francisco charter bus rental customers who were lucky enough to have caught the show by Hoyle, a one-man-show who literally had the audience enraptured from the beginning right to the end. The next time the show is up, we do recommend catching it and if you are lucky, Hoyle will bring his show to your city.

US Coachways is a leading San Francisco charter bus rental company and we look forward to serving you soon.

Literally, Taking A Hike

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 22:56:38 -0600

Taking a hike will never have a better meaning than this…as in literally taking a hike in the middle of summer in LA! Schools and charitable organizations are quickly putting their plans together for summer at this point in time and if you are one of our regular Los Angeles charter bus rental customers who are heading over to sunny city, here are some great hiking trail suggestions.

If you are not already in love with nature, we are sure you are going to go absolutely green after a visit to gorgeous Escondido Falls. There is the winding amazing hiking trail that will take your breath away and when you are done (after about forty five minutes to an hour of hiking), you can sit down to take in the view of either the beach or the pretty waterfalls.

Inspiration Point Loop Trail is precisely that…you hike around the loop which starts and end at Will Rogers. While there are no waterfalls here, our Los Angeles charter bus rental customers say that the sight of LA basin is astonishing too.

For those of you who plan to hike in larger groups, please do not hesitate to get in touch with our friendly sales representatives to find out the details about our charter bus rental packages.

The Salsa Project by ART San Antonio

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 18:09:53 -0600

Most of the cities in the United States have their very own ART organizations. As different as they may be, their missions remains pretty much the same – to promote, educate art-related activities and entertainment and also to reach out to the community an youth. At the end of the day, their aim is to bring on quality performances. San Antonio is no different; therefore, we have a very strong arts organization in the form of ART San Antonio which actively promotes awareness, form collaborations with other art providers and then present it to the surrounding communities. US Coachways is always on the lookout for fabulous projects like this to introduce to our San Antonio bus charter rental customers.

This brings us to a recent project that ART San Antonio has been working on which is called The Salsa Project: Tito Puente Birthday Celebration. The event will feature the many talents from Tito Puente All Stars and the organizers also managed to rope in some special guests including Tito Puente Jr. For those of you who are keen to catch the live show, it is going to be at Tropicano Riverwalk Hotel in the Romeo and Juliet room. The price of the tickets are set at $20 per person if bought now…well worth the price but if you decide to buy the price at the venue itself, you are going to have to pay $10 more for the admission ticket.

Grab US Coachways’ reliable San Antonio bus charter rental package right now if you are going in large groups. The number to call would be 1-855-BUS-CHARTER.

With spring in full swing, families are quickly putting their plans together for outdoor adventures and when it comes to family-friendly fun, there is no other place like Six Flags Texas. The theme park is pulling out all the stops with their fun 2012 season’s new entertainment itinerary. On top of the award-winning rides and entertaining shows, there are two new ones that will be presented by WONKA NERDS and others.

Being a premier park, the organizers know how to put together entertaining and funny shows that will leave park-goers with lots of memories when they go home and we recommend having some fun while watching those slapstick shows. The shows will run from early June to mid August 2012. Please head over to their official website for the details. We are sure our Dallas charter bus rental customers will soon be organizing group trips to catch the shows too. If you don’t want to miss out on the fun, please do contact us early to book an affordable and luxurious ride from us.

Just like our specially-priced Dallas charter bus rental package for Six Flags, the park is also offering Opening Day weekend special ticket promotion. Buying their Season Pass, suffice to say, will help you save more money. From the looks of it, the lineup is definitely going to be a crowd magnet not only for foreigners but for the locals too.

It’s fun traveling with kids but it can also be a big problem, depending on how well adjusted your kids are, or how susceptible they are to boredom. For parents, it is an absolute MUST to do a little bit of research ahead of time so that there is something fun for the kids to do when they come to Houston. One of the best entertainment centers for kids that was recommended by some of our regular Houston charter bus rental customers is Zuma Fun Centers which is located south Houston along the Southwest Freeway.

What do they have for kids there? There is a mini golf course, bumper boats, kiddy rides, go-kart race track, batting cages, and for the less adventurous ones, a video arcade center. Make the most out of your trip here by booking a group package deal. Just like our Houston charter bus rental, the more, the merrier, the cheaper.

Anyway, for those of you who are looking for a fab place for that fab birthday party…yes, you can have yours at Zuma and they even have a birthday party package deal which looks pretty awesome.

If you decide to make your way here to Zuma in a group, remember that the number to call for the best charter bus deal that you can find in Houston TX is 1-855-BUS-CHARTER.

Checking Out The Farmers Markets

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Sun, 11 Mar 2012 15:23:42 -0600

The locals love their farmers market and if you are here during spring time, US Coachways encourages you to spend half a day checking them out. The location for the Farmers Markets is at popular and strategic places, so you won’t miss them. Since you are using our Chicago charter bus rental service, just let the bus driver know of your and you will be there in no time.

For those of you heading towards the South side of Chicago, there are two popular Farmers Markets there…one along the 61st St which happens on Saturdays and another on 67th Street on Sundays. For confirmation of changes of location and availability, we urge our customers to perform checks on their preferred search engine before heading over. The same applies to another two Farmers Markets located on the West which are the Austin and Lawndale Farmers Market.

According to our regular Chicago charter bus rental customers, there are another two in the north but we are only able to confirm the Andersonville Farmers Market.

Checking out Farmers Markets is such an invigorating thing to do. It connects you to, number one, people; and number two, it brings you back to nature. It is a place that is like a bridge between the community and the nourishing, delicious food at the table. Do check them out if the chance presents itself.

Florida For History And Nature Lovers

When it comes to having fun in Florida, there is really no end to the number of options there is out there. It all depends on who, how and when you are going to head over with but as what some of our Florida charter bus rental customers would say, every day is the perfect day for an outing in Florida.

College and university-going kids might not like Fort Lauderdale much but it is the perfect place to be for couples and seniors. Located right beside the sea, it is an entertainment hub with museums, shopping malls, beaches and lots of historical sites to explore and learn about. Florida Keys is another sleepy city in Florida.

Ways To Use Android Devices For Travelers

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 22:23:49 -0700

Organizing a group trip can be mind-boggling. Never done it before? You are going to floored with the number of things that needs to be ironed out before the trip rolls around. However, thank goodness for technology that getting the bus charter trip together is now a whole lot easier…and gasp…even slight more fun than before.

First of all, you can hunt down your favorite bus charter on the phone or tablet and book the bus right up, there and then. Make a phone call at the flick of the hand or a tap of the finger…and there you have it, you are done! You can use the phone’s app to actually make lists too, for things that you might need to bring along for the trip and also maybe reminders about phone calls you need to make. Set up the reminders and you can have the peace of mind of organizing other stuff that is important too.

The same way you use the phone to find a bus charter company through the internet, hotels, package deals, tours, attractions, restaurants, cafes, malls, parks, museums, find them all on the tablet and phone…it is amazing what technology has done to make traveling easier. Of course, if it is compatible with your phone or tab, try out Wikitude. It is an app that utilizes your phone/tab’s camera to give you a real 3D look at places of interest…sort of a 3D tour guide.

And during times of emergency, the devices can be life savers. Assuming that you have made a booking at your preferred hotel and there has been some kind of a mistake, the mishap can be saved with a hotel finder. All you need is internet access and GPRS and the application will find you hotels near to where you are within seconds. The best part out of this is that it is all free.

Using bus charter services means that you have time to worry less about transportation and pay attention to the small details during your trip, which means you will love apps that can help you record and track your vacation. It even records down the routes that you have taken and photos captured by the camera and uploaded onto the internet. It is sort of like vacation blogging…LIVE.

During a holiday, it is never nice to run out of cash, therefore, in times of need, you will thank the apps and your wonderful device for helping you do the exchange rate calculating and also finding the nearest money changer or bank.

So, make full use of technology and your phone/tablet during your bus charter travels. And remember your chargers!

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 20:07:40 -0700

With the bone-chilling winter weather somewhat out of the way, we are sure that many people are itching to bring out their summer clothes and head out doors…especially the kids. So, for those of you who are craving for some outdoor fun in the fun, here’s an idea…try making a grab for our charter bus Philadelphia packaged and head out to Bowman’s Hill Wildflower Preserve.

And it’s not just all flower power too because here is the place where picnics are held, where people hop on bikes, go kayaking or simply laze around in the most natural and therapeutic manner possible in a city as busy as Philadelphia. While some choose to chill out and learn about or just admire the flora and fauna, others like to get active with horse-riding…yes, there is a long trail here. But if you are really into the flower power stuff, learn up about the woodlands, the habitat, hills and meadow to know which flower is in bloom. It is fun for the kids to learn about each different species hands on.

It’s a 100 acre landscape of natural beauty, that’s what this is.

Heading out in a group and hunting down the best charter bus Philadelphia deal you can find on the internet? You’re in luck. When it comes to charter bus rental, US Coachways’ got your back. Give us a call for the details.

Accommodation Budget – Should It Be A Concern?

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:33:11 -0700

There are many things that people worry about when it comes to budget travel and one of the biggest budget buster is actually accommodation. Luckily for many tourists who are heading over to Connecticut, the options when it comes to cheap sleeps is almost endless. From small motels to home stays; from dorms to small hotels, there are plenty of them over here and we often do not hesitate to point them out to our bus charter Connecticut customers.

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites is one such hotel. In one hotel, you have multiple options so that customers can choose one that suit their budget. The amenities are great and hotel clean. Another fantastic budget-stay option would be The Omni New Haven Hotel at Yale. According to some of our bus charter Connecticut customers, the package that comes with free breakfast is a MUST because of the view from the top of the hotel building.

When it comes to finding a good accommodation, remember that it is not top priority. If you are vacationing with your family members or friends, the priority is to reserve it for food, entertainment and transportation. As long as you keep your perspective and expectations right, there shouldn’t be a problem with your budget.

Happy traveling and exploring Connecticut!

Denver Restaurants For Great Dates

nospam@example.com (Lady Limelight) — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 21:19:14 -0700

Looking for a nice restaurant to eat out with your spouse or partner? Here are a few suggestions.

There is no denying that when it comes to pricing, Angelo’s is one of the best. The ambiance is not as romantic as some may like it to be but it is extremely casual and the restaurant, at the point of writing this, does not take table reservations. They can’t promise you a romantic ambiance but they do promise some of the best pizzas around.

For health-conscious Denver charter bus rental customers, your best bet would be Root Down Restaurant located along 33rd Ave. The dishes available in this restaurant use organic local products which should be perfect for folks who like local, fresh ingredients and upon request, they can prepare vegan and gluten-free dishes too.

And after a fulfilling dinner, head over to the White Chocolate Grill. As the name suggests, the outlet serves up some of the best desserts around. Located on Lone Tree, the location is a little off downtown area but the molten chocolate soufflé will be well worth the drive.

In the meantime, remember to check out some of our available Denver charter bus rental packages which we can tailor-make for just about any event.

As a reminder, if you are doing this in a group, please check out our Phoenix charter bus rental rates.
