Norbert Thompson was so great to work with. He even took care of me when I was the one who messed up the date for the reservation and helped to find a driver right away. Mark Berry was our drive, he was WONDERFUL! On time and even worked to stay close to the venue so that when we were done early we were able to text him and he picked...

Common Questions About Charter Bus rentals in Cleveland

Which cities or regions are you able to serve?

All of the major cities and many smaller cities in the United States are served by our nationwide charter bus services.

How can I determine what kind of bus I require?

Our experts assist you in choosing the best vehicles for your needs based on your schedule, group size, and preferred amenities.

What kinds of charter buses are available?

Metropolitan Shuttle offers motor coaches, minibuses, party buses, executive coaches, limo buses, school buses, shuttle buses, and luxury buses are just a few of the many vehicles we provide.

How many video monitors do the buses have?

Deluxe charter buses will typically have four to six video monitors. Minibuses will have 1-3.

Can I charter a minibus for an overnight trip?

Minibuses are not designed for long-distance travel. They are much lower to the ground and therefore far less comfortable for passengers travelling on the highway. Few, if any, operators will allow their minibuses to travel much more than 100 miles out of a given city.

Who arranges and pays for the driver’s hotel room?

Typically, the client will be responsible for booking the driver’s room on overnight trips. Often, if you ask, hotels will add a complimentary room for the driver when you book rooms for a large group.

If I don’t need the bus for the entire day, will I still need to pay for it for the entire day?

Most charter services have four- or five-hour minimums on vehicle rentals. Therefore, if your event is from 9am to 5pm and you’re booking a vehicle for transportation both to and from, it could cost the same amount to keep the vehicle for the day as it would to have it leave and come back for the return trip. However, there are occasions when we can offer special one-way transfer rates to accommodate those types of circumstances.

Transportation in and Around Cleveland

Visitors to Cleveland can enter the city via the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, which is served by most of the major domestic airlines in the United States, and is a hub for United Airlines. From the airport, the RTA Red Line can take visitors from the airport to downtown in just over twenty minutes. Visitors may also arrive in Cleveland via the Burke Lakefront Airport on the shore of Lake Erie, the Cuyahoga County Airport, or the Akron-Canton Regional Airport (forty-five minutes from Cleveland by car).

By car, Cleveland is accessible via several interstate highways, including Interstate 71, Interstate 77, Interstate 80 / The Ohio Turnpike, and Interstate 90. Visitors may also travel to Cleveland via Amtrak, which has a station on the north end of downtown; or by the Greyhound or Megabus coach companies, both with terminals in downtown Cleveland. Cleveland is also accessible by boat via the Great Lakes.

Fortunately for drivers, Cleveland is one of the friendliest cities in the world for motor vehicles. Due to superior urban planning, Cleveland has very few one-way streets, favorable traffic compared to other major U.S. cities, and frequent and clear signage to let drivers know what district of the cities they are in. Most of Cleveland is laid out in a grid pattern, making it relatively easy to orient for drivers. Rush hour traffic, while light compared to other cities, starts from 7 AM to 9 AM, and then 4 PM to 6:30 PM, usually along I-71, I,77, I-90, I-271, and I-480.

Public bus and rail is handled by the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA), with two light rail lines and a bus rapid transit line. Visitors wanting a more comfortable and customized experience can also charter a bus for transportation around Cleveland.
