Visit Buffalo in the Luxury, Comfort and Convenience of a Charter Bus

Known as the "City of Light" because of its early embrace of electricity, Buffalo has long been a beacon of arts and culture, food and progressive thinking. With an extensive network of city parks laid out by famed city planner Frederick Law Olmstead, and a culture that blends the best of Midwestern and Northeastern traditions, Buffalo is a popular destination, with something to satisfy a wide array of tastes and interests.

The Many Great Reasons to Take a Charter Bus to Buffalo

Organizing a group trip can often be a thankless job. There's one sure way, though, to earn the admiration and approval of your participants—take them to and from Buffalo on a charter bus from US Coachways. There's no other mode of travel that offers all these benefits:

• Dependability — Cancellations and delays are virtually unheard of with a charter bus. Your driver has the resources to learn about potential traffic problems in advance and find alternate routes to get you there on time. In addition, because of our longstanding relationships with charter bus service providers nationwide, it's usually easy for us to find a replacement coach, if necessary.
• Affordability — On a charter bus, you'll share many of the costs of travel. That consistently makes charter bus travel one of the most cost-effective ways to take a group anywhere.
• Stress-free travel — On a charter bus, everyone gets to relax. Your driver will negotiate traffic, check the GPS, watch the time and find parking. There's no TSA security checkpoint, so you can keep your shoes on and bring all your personal toiletries. You'll be on the same coach for the entire trip and your luggage will be with you—you won't have to sprint to make a connection or worry about lost bags. Your devices won't interfere with navigation, either. Stay connected at all times.
• Flexibility — You won't have to choose from a handful of prepackaged trips. You tell us when you want to leave, where you want to go, when you want to stop, how long you want to stay and when you want to return.
• Comfort — The seats are big, with more leg room than any mode of travel. There's no middle seat, either, so you won't be bumping elbows the whole trip. You can also take a stroll down the wide aisles at any time.
• Safety and security — You'll have a highly skilled and trained professional driving the bus. The limited access to your coach also makes it easy to monitor who comes and goes, so you'll feel safe and secure.
• The multiple uses of the bus — It's more than just a way to get you there and back. It's the ideal place for a group meeting, whether you're prepping for a big meeting or debriefing on the way home. It's also a great place for some peace and quiet in the midst of a busy time in Buffalo.
• Access to the HOV (high occupancy vehicle) lane — Minimize the risk of getting stuck in traffic
• Have a positive impact on the environment — When you share a charter bus with others, you take a number of private vehicles off the roads, lowering carbon emissions.

Experience a True Cultural Crossroads in Buffalo

The diversity that epitomizes Buffalo can be found just about everywhere:

• The food — Spend a couple days here and you won't be surprised that National Geographic put Buffalo at #3 among "The World's Top Ten Food Cities" in 2015. It's not just that it's the birthplace of hot wings (initially served at the Anchor Bar in 1964). Buffalo-style pizza offers a unique take, somewhere between the thick crust in Chicago and the thin-style found in New York City. You'll find some of the best pierogies and kielbasa in the country here, along with other iconic Buffalo cuisine, such as haddock fries, pastry hearts, sponge candy and the beef on weck sandwich. Buffalo also boasts a vibrant international culinary scene, with Bangladeshi, Ethiopian, Lebanese, Venezuelan, Puerto Rican, Russian, Ukrainian, Pakistani and Burmese offerings among its dozens of ethnic eateries.
• The visual and performing arts—You'll find more than 50 art galleries in Buffalo, including the Burchfield-Penney Art Center, located on the campus of Buffalo State College. The city's theater district offers productions from more than 20 professional acting companies, and Shea's Performing Arts Center hosts touring Broadway shows in its 4,000 seat theater. The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, known for its creative collaborations with popular musicians (such as the Grateful Dead) performs regularly at Kleinhaus Music Hall.

Buffalo has long been an incubator for a wide range of musical genres and performers, from the jazz stylings of Spyro Gyra and Buffalo native Grover Washington, Jr., to the grunge rock of the Goo Goo Dolls and the indie folk/pop of Ani DiFranco. You'll find large and small venues throughout the city offering music to appeal to nearly any taste.

• The historical attractions — History buffs will find plenty to do and see in Buffalo. Check out the Darwin D. Martin House, one of famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright's "prairie" houses, designed and built around 1905. The Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park, in the downtown area, lets you visit a guided missile cruiser, a destroyer and a submarine. At the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site, you can see where our nation's 26th president was sworn in after the assassination of William McKinley. Visit the Buffalo Fire Historical Society Museum and see the oldest active fireboat in the world—the E.M. Cotter—which arrived in Buffalo in 1900.
• Enjoy professional sports — Buffalo has a long and storied sports history, which plays a vital role in the city's identity and culture. Though the city's fans have been a little snake-bit—think "Music City Miracle" or "Wide Right"—they are still loyal. Whether it's the Bills (NFL), Sabres (NHL) or the Bisons (minor league baseball), the house is always packed and the action is world-class.
• The shopping — There's plenty to satisfy your retail craving in Buffalo. For the mall experience, visit the Walden Galleria or the Fashion outlets of Niagara Falls USA. For boutiques and one-of-a-kind artisanal shops, walk down East Aurora or Hertel Avenue. Buffalo also offers plenty for bargain, thrift and consignment shoppers, including some of the best antique malls and outlets in the state of New York.

We'll Help You Find the Ideal Coach for Your Group

You've taken the first step toward a successful outing to Buffalo—you've decided to travel by charter bus. It's just as important, though, to make certain you have the best coach for your group and your trip.

At US Coachways, we'll listen carefully to learn the details of your excursion—how many participants you expect, how far you'll be traveling, what you'll need to bring or want to take home, and any other special needs of your entourage. We'll work closely with our vast national network of charter bus vendors to find the coach that's best-suited for you.

If you're traveling to Buffalo with a small-to-medium-sized group, we suggest the mini-bus. It comes in a number of sizes, seating anywhere from 24 to 35 comfortably. For larger groups, the full-sized bus is a great fit, with accommodations for up to 57 and an on-board bathroom. Multiple bus rentals are always an option and ADA-accessible buses are usually available.

With most charter buses (except for some school buses), you can expect plush, high-back bucket seats, climate control, a great sound system and plenty of storage space. Other modern conveniences, such as Wifi, DVD players and monitors, public address systems, electrical outlets, leather seats and hardwood floors, may be available for an additional charge.
