Getting a group around New Orleans without a plan is a recipe for a long, frustrating night. Parking in the French Quarter can start at $20 for short stays and easily exceed $50 near popular event venues on Saints game days or festival weekends. Rideshares surge to three or four times their base rate when the bars on Frenchmen Street let out at 2 a.m., and pulling together enough cars for a group of 20 means waiting 45 minutes on a crowded curb in the Louisiana heat.
Party Buses New Orleans cuts out all of that. With one booking, your entire group travels together from start to finish—no splitting up, no surge pricing, no one getting lost on the way to the next stop. We offer transparent, all-inclusive pricing, a 24/7 reservation team that actually picks up the phone, and a wide range of vehicles so you never pay for seats your group doesn't need.
Whether it's a Sprinter limo for 12 or a motorcoach for 56, Party Buses New Orleans has the right bus at the right price—every time. Call 504-264-9423 to get started.
From airport runs at MSY to late-night Bourbon Street crawls and everything in between, Party Buses New Orleans covers every type of group transportation in New Orleans. Here's a look at the full range of services we provide across the city and the surrounding region.
Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) (900 Airline Dr, Kenner, LA 70062) sits about 15 miles from the French Quarter, and the ride into the city via I-10 can stretch to 45 minutes or longer during busy travel windows—especially during Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, or any big Saints home stretch. Rideshare pickups at MSY are routed through designated transportation network company lanes on the Ground Transportation level, and surge pricing during busy arrival periods can catch groups off guard entirely.
A Party Buses New Orleans airport shuttle bus takes the guesswork out of the trip. One vehicle handles your entire group, all the luggage fits in the undercarriage bays, and your group arrives at your French Quarter hotel or Warehouse District venue without the stress of multiple rides. We handle outbound departures just as smoothly—your group loads up curbside at the hotel, beats the I-10 congestion to the departure level at MSY, and everyone makes their flight together.
New Orleans was practically built for bachelor and bachelorette parties, and Party Buses New Orleans is the best way to experience every block of it. From the balcony bars on Bourbon Street to the jazz clubs on Frenchmen Street, your group's itinerary can stretch across the city without anyone worrying about how to get from one stop to the next.
Our 15- to 50-passenger party buses are purpose-built for nights like these—full-length bar, LED lighting, premium Bluetooth sound, and wraparound seating that keeps everyone together no matter how long the night runs. For a smaller bridal crew, our 14-passenger Sprinter limo keeps it intimate and upscale. Best of all, there's no surge pricing when the bars let out at 3 a.m. and no one has to figure out how to get five separate rides on a crowded Bourbon Street curb.
Call 504-264-9423 to build your custom New Orleans itinerary.
Celebrate your next milestone birthday, Sweet 16, or quinceañera in true New Orleans style on a Party Buses New Orleans party bus. Rolling through the city in a fully decked-out party bus—LED lighting synced to your playlist, bar stocked for the adults, and everyone together in one celebratory space—is the kind of experience guests talk about long after the candles are blown out.
Our party buses range from compact 15-passenger options for close friend groups up to 50-passenger limo buses that can accommodate a full quinceañera court. We serve groups across the metro from New Orleans to Metairie, Kenner, Chalmette, and well beyond. Just tell us your headcount and itinerary, and we'll match you with the right bus for the occasion.
ADA-accessible options are available at no extra charge—just let us know when you call 504-264-9423.
New Orleans is one of the best music cities on earth, and Party Buses New Orleans makes sure your group gets to the show without the parking nightmare. Smoothie King Center (1501 Dave Dixon Dr, New Orleans, LA 70113) regularly hosts massive touring acts, and surface lots off Poydras Street charge $30 or more on concert nights with the surrounding streets clogging up for blocks in every direction. For performances at the Mahalia Jackson Theater for the Performing Arts (1419 Basin St, New Orleans, LA 70116), street parking along Basin Street is extremely limited and largely unavailable during sold-out performances.
Book a party bus or charter bus from Party Buses New Orleans and your group gets dropped at the venue entrance, enjoys the show, and steps back onto the bus when it's done—no hunting for a spot, no walking six blocks in the heat, and no waiting 30 minutes for a surge-priced rideshare on the way home.
New Orleans is a major destination for national conventions and corporate events, drawing hundreds of thousands of business travelers each year to the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center (900 Convention Center Blvd, New Orleans, LA 70130). Parking in the Warehouse District during major conventions can reach $40 or more per day, and trying to move a team of 30 or 40 people across multiple rideshares is slow and expensive.
Party Buses New Orleans handles corporate event shuttles of every scale—from daily loops between the Hyatt Regency New Orleans (601 Loyola Ave, New Orleans, LA 70113) and the Convention Center, to executive transfers in our 14-passenger Sprinter limo for VIP arrivals at MSY. We also set up employee shuttle services, team-building event transportation, and ongoing commuter routes for companies with offices across the Greater New Orleans metro. Onboard WiFi and power outlets make it easy for your team to stay focused right up to the venue entrance.
New Orleans never runs out of reasons to celebrate, and Party Buses New Orleans provides private event transportation for every occasion. Heading to the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival at Fair Grounds Race Course (1751 Gentilly Blvd, New Orleans, LA 70119)? Parking at Jazz Fest can cost $20 or more and requires a significant walk from remote lots—a party bus or charter bus drops your group at the gate and picks everyone up when the last set wraps.
Going to a second-line parade in the Tremé? Navigating street closures and post-parade traffic in personal vehicles is a headache; a private bus keeps your group together and gets everyone home without the confusion.
From wine-and-dine nights in the Garden District to family reunions spanning multiple days across the city, we build custom itineraries around your schedule and your group's specific needs. Call 504-264-9423 any time to get started.
Prom and homecoming season in New Orleans fills up the Party Buses New Orleans fleet fast—and for good reason. A prom party bus replaces the caravan of parent drop-offs with one polished, exciting experience that starts the moment your group boards. Students arrive together, the pre-prom energy builds on the ride over, and everyone gets home comfortably at the end of the night.
We serve high schools across Orleans Parish, Jefferson Parish, and St. Tammany Parish with prom and homecoming bus rentals ranging from 15-passenger party buses for small friend groups to 40-passenger limo buses for the full squad. Booking well in advance is critical—prom season in the metro area sees our fleet fill quickly, and last-minute rentals are rarely available in April and May. Lock in your date and headcount early by calling 504-264-9423 or using our online quote tool.
Teachers and chaperones across South Louisiana trust Party Buses New Orleans for school field trip transportation because we're reliable, communicative, and available 24/7 to help you sort out every detail. New Orleans is one of the great educational cities in America—students can spend a full day at the National WWII Museum (945 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA 70130), explore living ecosystems at the Audubon Nature Institute, or trace the history of American jazz at the New Orleans Jazz Museum at the Old U.S. Mint (400 Esplanade Ave, New Orleans, LA 70116).
Charter buses in our fleet come equipped with reclining seats, onboard TVs for educational content on the way over, and undercarriage storage so students aren't hauling bags through the exhibit halls. ADA-accessible buses are available at no additional charge. Whether you need a 15-passenger minibus for a small group or two 56-passenger motorcoaches for a full grade level, we have the right fit.
Call 504-264-9423 to build your field trip itinerary.
Game days in New Orleans bring out enormous crowds, and the parking situation around Caesars Superdome (1500 Sugar Bowl Dr, New Orleans, LA 70112) is notoriously congested. Surface lots in the Superdome corridor charge $40 to $60 on Saints game days, and post-game traffic on Poydras Street and I-10 can add a full hour to any trip home. For Pelicans games at adjacent Smoothie King Center (1501 Dave Dixon Dr, New Orleans, LA 70113), the logistics are nearly identical.
A Party Buses New Orleans sports charter bus solves all of it. Charter buses are directed to designated bus parking near the Superdome's south entrance off Girod Street, putting your group steps from the gate. For fan groups wanting the full rolling tailgate experience before kickoff, our 15- to 50-passenger party buses come loaded with a built-in bar, LED lighting, and premium sound to keep the energy building from your starting point all the way to Sugar Bowl Drive.
A New Orleans wedding deserves transportation as spectacular as the city itself. Whether you're saying your vows in a historic St. Charles Avenue mansion, a Garden District estate, or an intimate ceremony in the French Quarter, Party Buses New Orleans provides seamless wedding shuttle service for every part of the weekend.
For the bridal party, our 14-passenger Sprinter limo keeps the getting-ready experience polished and photo-ready. For guest shuttles between a ceremony at St. Louis Cathedral (615 Pere Antoine Alley, New Orleans, LA 70116) and a reception in the Warehouse District or Uptown, our minibuses and charter buses run smooth, timed loops that keep everyone on schedule. Out-of-town guests especially appreciate not having to navigate New Orleans' one-way streets and scarce parking.
ADA-accessible buses are available at no added charge—just let us know when you call 504-264-9423.
South Louisiana's River Road corridor is home to some of the most breathtaking plantation estates and unique tasting experiences in the country—and getting your group there without navigating the narrow two-lane highways along the Mississippi is exactly what Party Buses New Orleans is built for. From Oak Alley (3645 LA-18, Vacherie, LA 70090) and Laura Plantation to the swamp tour launches off Highway 90, a private charter bus or party bus turns the drive itself into part of the experience.
Closer to the city, New Orleans' craft cocktail and brewery scene is thriving year-round. A private pub crawl bus hitting the live music clubs on Frenchmen Street, the cocktail bars of Magazine Street, or the taprooms in Mid-City keeps your whole group together from first stop to last. Our party buses come with a full bar, LED lighting, and Bluetooth sound so the celebration never has to pause between stops.

Our family reunion had relatives flying in from everywhere and we needed a way to move thirty people around together. This was the answer. Big enough for the whole crew, easy for the older folks to get in and out, and the kids loved the lights. We caught up and laughed the entire ride. Brought everyone together in a way separate cars never would have.

Buddy's bachelor party and we wanted something memorable without it being a logistical disaster. This nailed it. We hit a few spots, kept the playlist running on the sound system all night, and the bar on board kept things rolling between stops. Tons of space so it never felt packed even with the whole group. Easy to set up, even easier to enjoy.
Vanessa
Booked this for a night out celebrating my promotion with friends. We wanted to feel fancy and not deal with a single thing, and that's exactly what happened. The LED lights and music had us hyped from the first stop, and rolling around New Orleans together beat splitting into rideshares. Felt like the main characters all night. Already planning the next excuse to book again.
Eli
Used this for a corporate client event, shuttling a group between a few venues over the evening. It looked sharp pulling up, the inside was comfortable and roomy, and the sound system let us keep a nice vibe going between stops. Clients were impressed, which made me look good. Smooth from start to finish. Would use again for any business outing.
Party bus rental prices in New Orleans range from $125 to $250 per hour depending on vehicle size and the time of year. Full-size charter buses run $150 to $300 per hour.

Large vehicles including charter buses and full-size party buses are generally prohibited from traveling through the interior streets of the French Quarter, including Bourbon Street itself. For Quarter destinations, buses typically drop off and pick up along the Canal Street or Rampart Street perimeter—both within a two-minute walk of Bourbon—while the bus waits off-site until your group is ready. Our team works out all of these logistics at booking so your group always has a clear pickup plan before the night even starts.
Mardi Gras is the single busiest transportation window of the year in New Orleans. Street closures, parade routes, and crowd barriers make advance planning absolutely essential. Party Buses New Orleans coordinates Mardi Gras party bus rentals with established drop-off and pick-up zones along parade routes, typically on Canal Street or along the Uptown route near Napoleon Avenue and St. Charles Avenue.
Buses for Mardi Gras fill up extremely early—often by November or December for the following February season—so securing your reservation as soon as your dates are confirmed is strongly advised.
The right bus size depends on your headcount and itinerary. For a tight friend group of 10 to 14, our Sprinter limo is an upscale, intimate option that sets the tone immediately. Groups of 15 to 25 are a great fit for our mid-size party buses, which include a full bar, LED lighting, and premium sound.
For larger bachelorette groups of 30 to 50, our full-size limo buses keep everyone together in one vehicle for the entire night without exception. Call 504-264-9423 and we'll help you match the right bus to your crew size and stops.
Absolutely. Party Buses New Orleans regularly runs trips between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, along the River Road plantation corridor (including Oak Alley and Laura Plantation), and to destinations throughout south Louisiana and the Gulf Coast. We also handle long-distance trips to other major Louisiana and Gulf South cities.
Just let us know your route when you call 504-264-9423 and we'll build a quote around your full itinerary.
The earlier the better—especially in New Orleans. For standard weekends and events, booking at least four to six weeks in advance gives you the best selection of vehicles and the most competitive pricing. For peak seasons like Mardi Gras (book three to six months ahead), Jazz Fest (late April/early May), Essence Festival (July 4th weekend), and prom season (April to May), availability tightens dramatically.
If you're planning around any of these major windows, call 504-264-9423 as soon as your dates are confirmed.
New Orleans has more legendary venues, live music strips, and must-see attractions per square mile than almost any other city in America. Here's a look at six of the most popular destinations Party Buses New Orleans helps groups reach every single week.
The French Quarter—bounded by Canal Street, Rampart Street, Esplanade Avenue, and the Mississippi River—is the undisputed entertainment capital of New Orleans. Bourbon Street runs straight through its heart, lined with open-container bars, live music venues, daiquiri shops, and balcony lounges that stay busy around the clock every day of the year. Because large vehicles are restricted from most French Quarter streets, Party Buses New Orleans drops groups at the Canal Street or Rampart Street perimeter—both within a two-minute walk of Bourbon—while the bus waits nearby for pickup.
Free street parking is virtually nonexistent in or near the Quarter on weekends, with paid surface lots along the Canal Street edge charging $20 to $40.
Address: Bourbon St, New Orleans, LA 70116
Home to the New Orleans Saints and one of the most recognizable venues in American sports, Caesars Superdome hosts NFL games, college football bowl games, major touring concerts, and the annual Essence Festival—the largest African American music and culture event in the United States, drawing over 500,000 attendees each July 4th weekend. Surface parking around the Superdome corridor reaches $40 to $60 on Saints game days. Charter buses are directed to designated bus parking near the south entrance off Girod Street, dropping your group steps from the gate.
Check the official Caesars Superdome website for current event parking and ingress details before arrival.

Phone: (504) 587-3663
Just outside the French Quarter along the edge of the Faubourg Marigny neighborhood, Frenchmen Street is where New Orleans locals go for live jazz, blues, funk, and brass band music every single night of the week. The 2000 block packs in legendary spots like The Spotted Cat Music Club, Snug Harbor Jazz Bistro, and The Maison—all shoulder-to-shoulder on weekend nights and especially during Jazz Fest. The street is narrow and parking is minimal even on slow nights; during festival season, the block is wall-to-wall.
Party Buses New Orleans drops groups on Esplanade Avenue at the Frenchmen Street intersection for easy access to every venue on the strip.
Address: Frenchmen St, New Orleans, LA 70116
Ranked as the #1 museum in the United States and one of the top museums in the world by TripAdvisor, the National WWII Museum is an essential stop for school groups, history enthusiasts, and corporate event itineraries alike. The campus spans several connected buildings in the Warehouse District and features immersive combat exhibits, a 4D film experience in the Solomon Victory Theater, and a full-service restaurant. Charter bus drop-off is available on Magazine Street near the main entrance; Warehouse District surface lots charge $15 to $20 during peak museum hours, making a single-vehicle group drop-off far more efficient than coordinating separate cars.
Advance group reservations are strongly recommended.

Audubon Zoo sits along the Uptown stretch of Magazine Street and is home to more than 2,000 animals across 58 acres of lush New Orleans landscape, including white alligators, white tigers, and Louisiana swamp exhibits you won't find anywhere else. It's one of the top family and field trip destinations in South Louisiana, drawing school groups from across the region year-round. The zoo is part of the broader Audubon Nature Institute, which also includes the Aquarium of the Americas on Canal Street.
Magazine Street is narrow and on-street parking is extremely limited on weekends—a charter bus or minibus group drop-off at the main gate on Magazine Street keeps your visit on schedule from the moment you arrive.
Address: 6500 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA 70118
Phone: (504) 581-4629
Mardi Gras World is the working studio where the massive floats used in New Orleans' famous carnival parades are designed and built by Blaine Kern Artists—a family-operated tradition going back generations. The riverfront facility offers daily public tours through warehouses filled with giant papier-mâché figures, elaborate float designs, and decades of Mardi Gras history. Parking in the riverfront area costs $10 to $20 on tour days, and vehicle access through the Port of New Orleans Place access road can be tricky for larger groups arriving separately.
Charter buses follow the Port of New Orleans Place road directly to the main entrance; confirm current bus drop-off protocols with the facility before arrival.
