A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Minnetrista Museum & Gardens
No trip to Muncie is complete without visiting the cultural heart of the city: Minnetrista Museum & Gardens. Located at 1200 N Minnetrista Pkwy, Muncie, IN 47303, this 40-acre campus is the legacy of the Ball family, the industrialists who famously founded the Ball Corporation. Minnetrista offers a unique blend of history, nature, and art that appeals to groups of all ages. Your group can explore the historic homes of the Ball family, wander through themed gardens that change beautifully with the seasons, and engage with rotating exhibits that highlight local history and art.
When you rent a charter bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Muncie, visiting Minnetrista becomes a breeze. Parking multiple vehicles here can disjoint your group, but a charter bus can drop everyone off right at the main entrance for easy access to the Welcome Center. After your tour, your driver will be waiting to whisk you away to your next stop. It’s the perfect location for educational field trips, garden club outings, or corporate team -building days. Don't forget to visit the Oakhurst Gardens and the Nature Area while you are there.
National Model Aviation Museum
Did you know Muncie is considered the model aviation capital of the world? The National Model Aviation Museum, located at 5151 E Memorial Dr, Muncie, IN 47302, is a fascinating destination dedicated to the history and hobby of building and flying model aircraft. This museum is an absolute must-see for STEM-focused school trips, scout troops, and hobbyist groups. Inside, your group will find an impressive collection of model aircraft spanning the history of the hobby, interactive exhibits on aerodynamics, and a deep dive into the technology behind flight.
Traveling here with a large group is made simple with a private bus rental. The museum is located on the extensive grounds of the International Aeromodeling Center, which spans over 1,000 acres. Having a charter bus allows your group to easily navigate between the museum building and the flying fields where competitions often take place. Instead of worrying about coordinating a caravan of cars to find the specific site, your driver can navigate the grounds effortlessly. With plenty of storage space on our full-size motorcoaches, you can even bring along your own model planes or picnic supplies to enjoy a day watching the skies.
Ball State University & David Owsley Museum of Art
Ball State University is a cornerstone of the Muncie community, and the David Owsley Museum of Art is its crown jewel. Located in the Fine Arts Building at 2021 W Riverside Ave, Muncie, IN 47306, the museum houses a collection that rivals those in much larger cities, with over 11,000 works of art representing cultures from six continents. Admission is free, making it an excellent budget-friendly stop for school groups, art appreciation societies, and prospective students touring the campus.
Navigating a college campus with a large group can be a logistical nightmare due to restricted parking zones and heavy pedestrian traffic. By booking a shuttle bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Muncie, you eliminate the stress of finding visitor parking. We can arrange for drop-off and pick-up at designated areas near the Fine Arts Building or the Emens Auditorium. This is particularly helpful for campus tours where you might want to visit multiple buildings, such as the Shafer Bell Tower or Scheumann Stadium. Your group can stay cool in the air conditioning between stops, recharging their devices in our power outlets before heading out to see the next campus highlight.
Muncie Children's Museum
If you are planning a field trip for younger students or a day out for a family reunion with lots of little ones, the Muncie Children's Museum is the place to be.

From the "Big Rig" truck exhibit to the "Tot Spot" for toddlers, there is endless entertainment that focuses on science, art, and community.

We can drop your group off right at the front doors so you don't have to navigate busy downtown streets with a crowd of children. Plus, with onboard DVD players, you can play educational cartoons or movies to keep the excitement manageable during the drive.
Cardinal Greenways
For active groups looking to experience the natural beauty of Indiana, the Cardinal Greenways is a fantastic destination. As the longest rail-trail in Indiana, it spans 62 miles, stretching from Marion through Muncie to Richmond. The historic Muncie Depot, located at 700 E Wysor St, Muncie, IN 47305, serves as a great starting point or gathering spot for groups. Whether you are a cycling club, a walking group, or a corporate team looking for a healthy outdoor activity, the Greenway offers paved paths perfect for exploration.
Logistics can be tricky when planning a point-to-point hike or bike ride. A charter bus rental is the perfect solution.

Our full-size charter buses offer ample undercarriage storage, perfect for transporting bicycles, hiking gear, and coolers for a post-trail picnic. Enjoy the fresh air and exercise knowing that a comfortable, climate-controlled ride is waiting to take you to your next destination or back home to rest.

This 1,275-acre park features a large reservoir perfect for boating, fishing, and swimming, along with miles of trails for hiking and horseback riding. It also has campsites and picnic shelters, making it an ideal location for large company picnics, family reunions, or scout troop adventures.
When you head out to the reservoir with a large group, you are likely bringing a lot of gear—coolers, food, sports equipment, and maybe even camping supplies. A charter bus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company Muncie provides the storage space you need to haul everything comfortably.
