Pasadena’s Premier Charter Bus Service for Major Events & Academic Transfers
Expert Logistics for Large-Scale Events and Historic Streets.
Pasadena presents a dual transportation challenge: managing the massive influx of traffic for large events like the Rose Bowl and Rose Parade, and navigating the narrow, protected streets of Old Town. Our drivers are trained in event-specific staging and historic district protocols, ensuring your group avoids traffic gridlock and arrives exactly where they need to be—whether it’s a tight parking spot near Caltech or a designated drop-off at the stadium.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you handle transportation logistics for the Rose Bowl or Rose Parade?
A: We begin planning logistics months in advance, coordinating with event organizers. We secure necessary parking and access permits and utilize specific drop-off/staging zones far from public congestion, ensuring your group avoids traffic bottlenecks and arrives at the venue entrance efficiently.
Q: Are charter buses allowed to drive directly through Old Town Pasadena?
A: Access for large charter buses within the historic core of Old Town is highly restricted and difficult due to narrow streets and pedestrian traffic. We typically use agile Mini Buses for transfers and utilize approved perimeter drop-off points, allowing your group easy access without impacting historic area navigation.
Q: Do you provide transfers for groups visiting Caltech or JPL?
A: Yes. We frequently provide high-end, punctual transfers for visiting faculty, corporate partners, and student groups to Caltech and JPL. We understand the professional environment and ensure our vehicles and drivers maintain the highest standards of discretion and punctuality.
Q: What is the best vehicle size for a Rose Bowl game day shuttle?
A: For large groups (40+ people), the Motor Coach is the best choice, offering maximum capacity and under-bus storage for tailgating gear. For smaller, executive suites, a Mini Coach is more appropriate.
Q: Are there special fees associated with booking during the Rose Parade season?
A: Yes. Due to extremely high demand, road closures, and extended driver hours, pricing during the Rose Parade and Rose Bowl game period (New Year’s Day) is premium. We advise booking up to a year in advance to secure the best rates and availability.
