3 reasons to leave the driving to someone else while exploring Austin
With warmer weather on the way, you won't want to miss any summer festivals, concerts, outdoor recreation, or other Austin adventures. But don't feel like you have to limit your excursions to a select few — instead, share all that this charming city has to offer with as many friends, family, and fellow travel enthusiasts as possible.
But how are y'all getting to these fun events? GOGO Charters Austin works with local drivers to get everyone, in groups big or small, in the same vehicle, whether you need a minibus or charter bus.
Here are the top three tips every group traveling in Austin should know.
1. Plan your transportation ahead of time
When traveling with large groups of people, making sure everyone arrives on-time and together is no small feat. Setting up a carpool caravan and designating a driver more often than not wastes time you'd rather spend exploring, while traversing Austin public transportation can be daunting for out-of-towners. Forgo all these roadblocks by booking private transportation rental beforehand.
You can rely on GOGO Charters Austin to provide a comfortable and efficient transportation service for any itinerary. With a certified professional doing the driving, navigating, and parking, your group will spend less time worrying about how you're going to get there and more time enjoying Austin's sights, flavors, and experiences.
2. Take advantage of group discounts
Whether you're planning a school field trip to the Bullock Museum or a family reunion at the Typhoon Texas waterpark, many Austin adventures offer discounted group rates. Well, the same goes for transportation. Renting a charter bus is the most efficient and cost-effective transportation option for your group, costing less per person than traditional rideshare services.
Even if your group manages to arrange a carpool, driving to each destination in separate cars means paying for multiple parking spaces once you arrive. When you weigh these multiple parking fees against just one for a bus, it's a no-brainer.
3. Pack like a pro
Think of all the stuff you're going to want to bring with you when exploring the wonders of Austin: photography equipment, souvenirs, picnic materials, and other travel accessories. Now make sure your group can traverse the city unencumbered by reserving a transportation option with plenty of room to securely store your gear en route.
With a GOGO Charters rental, your ride can include spacious luggage bays for suitcases and coolers, as well as overhead storage bins for things you'd like to keep in the cabin. Don't worry about taking your belongings with you — your personal driver will watch over whatever is left on the bus while you walk around Austin uninhibited.
