Greenwood Park Mall

As one of the premier shopping destinations in the Indianapolis metro area, the Greenwood Park Mall (1251 US-31 N, Greenwood, IN 46142) is a magnet for tour groups, senior outings, and holiday shopping excursions. Spanning over a million square feet, this indoor and outdoor shopping complex features more than 150 stores, including major anchors like Macy's and Von Maur, alongside a variety of dining options like The Cheesecake Factory. Coordinating a large group shopping trip can be chaotic if everyone drives separately—parking spots are hard to find during peak weekends, and coordinating meet-up times can be frustrating.

When you rent a charter bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood, we make the shopping experience seamless. Your driver can drop your group off right at the main entrance or near the outdoor lifestyle center, eliminating the long walk from the outer parking lots. While you shop 'til you drop, you don't have to worry about carrying heavy bags from store to store. Simply head back to the bus to stash your purchases in the spacious overhead bins or the undercarriage luggage bays. Whether you are planning a Black Friday marathon or a leisurely afternoon of browsing, a private bus rental ensures your group stays together and enjoys a VIP retail experience.

Freedom Springs Greenwood Aquatics Park

Beat the Indiana heat with a group trip to Freedom Springs Greenwood Aquatics Park (850 W Stop 18 Rd, Greenwood, IN 46142). This isn't just a community pool; it is a full-blown water park destination perfect for summer camps, youth groups, and end-of-year school celebrations. The park features a lazy river, tube slides, a splash pad for younger children, and a lap pool. It is a favorite summer hotspot for residents of Johnson County and beyond. However, coordinating transport for dozens of excited kids and lifeguards/chaperones requires serious logistical planning.

Forget the stress of organizing a parent carpool chain. With a Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood school bus rental or charter bus, you can transport your entire camp or class in one safe, unified vehicle. After a long day of swimming and sun, students will appreciate the cool, air-conditioned ride home. Our buses offer plenty of storage space for coolers, towels, and swimming gear, keeping the aisles clear and safe. Plus, with a driver at the wheel, chaperones can focus on headcounts and supervision rather than navigating traffic on Stop 18 Road.

Mallow Run Winery

For a more sophisticated group outing, Mallow Run Winery (6964 W Whiteland Rd, Bargersville, IN 46106) offers a delightful escape just minutes from the heart of Greenwood. Famous for its Picnic Concert Series, wine tasting room, and beautiful vineyard views, Mallow Run is a top destination for bachelorette parties, wedding showers, and corporate team-building retreats. The venue frequently hosts food trucks and live music on the weekends, drawing crowds from all over central Indiana. Naturally, enjoying local wines responsibly is a priority for any group visiting a vineyard.

This is where a party bus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood becomes your best asset. By booking a private shuttle, you automatically secure a designated driver for your entire group. Everyone can enjoy the wine tastings and the festive atmosphere without worrying about who has to drive home. Your bus can pick you up from a central location in Greenwood or Indianapolis, shuttle you to the winery for an afternoon of relaxation, and ensure everyone gets home safely. With amenities like an AUX/Bluetooth sound system, you can keep the vibe going with your own playlist on the way there and back.

Craig Park & Old City Park

Greenwood takes pride in its parks system, and the crown jewels are undoubtedly Craig Park (10 E Smith Valley Rd, Greenwood, IN 46143) and the revitalized Old City Park (304 S Meridian St, Greenwood, IN 46143). Craig Park is the hub for major community events, including the massive Greenwood Freedom Festival, while Old City Park features a stunning promenade and one of the most unique playgrounds in the state. These parks are ideal destinations for family reunions, church picnics, and community festivals.

During major events like the Freedom Festival, parking in the immediate vicinity can be nearly impossible to find. A charter bus rental allows your large group to bypass the parking headache entirely. Your driver can drop your group near the festival grounds or pavilions and park off-site, returning to pick you up when the fireworks end or your picnic concludes. Whether you are hauling picnic supplies, sports equipment, or just a large group of relatives, the storage capabilities of a full-size charter bus make outdoor gatherings in Greenwood a breeze.

Hickory Stick Golf Club

For corporate groups and avid golfers, Hickory Stick Golf Club (4422 Hickory Stick Blvd, Greenwood, IN 46143) offers a challenging and scenic Irish-style links course right here in Indiana. It is a popular spot for charity tournaments, bachelor parties, and executive outings. However, transporting a large group of golfers along with their clubs can be a challenge in standard passenger vehicles or rideshares. Standard trunks simply don't have the room for multiple golf bags.

Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood offers the perfect solution with our spacious motorcoaches. The undercarriage luggage bays provide ample room to securely store golf clubs for every member of your party, ensuring they arrive in pristine condition. Your group can relax in the climate-controlled cabin, perhaps reviewing the course map or enjoying a pre-game snack, while your driver handles the navigation to the clubhouse. After 18 holes, a comfortable, air-conditioned bus is the perfect welcome sight for tired legs.

Rascal's Fun Zone

Located just a stone's throw south of Greenwood, Rascal's Fun Zone (629 N U.S. 31, Whiteland, IN 46184) is the ultimate destination for high-energy group entertainment. With indoor and outdoor go-karts, mini-golf, bumper boats, and a massive arcade, it is a go-to spot for birthday parties, youth sports team celebrations, and school rewards trips. Keeping a large group of excited kids organized in a busy entertainment center starts with the ride there.

A private bus rental ensures that your group arrives together, allowing you to check in and start the fun simultaneously. No waiting for stragglers who got stuck at a red light on US-31. Our buses can be equipped with flat-screen TVs and DVD players, allowing you to play movies to keep the kids entertained during the drive. Whether you are bringing a dozen kids in a sprinter van or an entire grade level in a fleet of charter buses, Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood ensures the fun starts the moment you board.

Otte Golf & Family Fun Center

For a laid-back afternoon of family-friendly competition, Otte Golf & Family Fun Center (681 Sheek Rd, Greenwood, IN 46143) is a local staple. Featuring a driving range, miniature golf, and batting cages, it provides a great variety of activities for diverse age groups. It is an excellent stop for church youth groups, day camps, or extended families looking for an affordable outing. Its location right off I-65 makes it incredibly accessible, but organizing a convoy of cars for a large group can still be tricky.

Streamline your outing by renting a minibus from Charter Bus Rental Company Greenwood. We can pick your group up from your church, school, or neighborhood and shuttle you directly to the fun center. If your itinerary includes multiple stops—perhaps a round of mini-golf at Otte followed by lunch at a nearby restaurant—your driver will stick to your schedule perfectly. You won't have to worry about losing anyone in traffic between stops, and everyone gets to enjoy the air conditioning between activities.

Day Trips to Indianapolis Sporting Events

Greenwood’s proximity to Indianapolis makes it the perfect launching pad for sports fans. Whether you are heading to Lucas Oil Stadium (500 S Capitol Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46225) for a Colts game or Gainbridge Fieldhouse (125 S Pennsylvania St, Indianapolis, IN 46204) for the Pacers, staying in Greenwood and shuttling into the city is a smart move. Hotels in Greenwood are often more affordable than downtown Indy, and with a charter bus, you avoid the exorbitant event parking fees downtown.

Your group can tailgate in the parking lot or simply enjoy the ride into the city without the stress of game-day traffic on I-65. A private charter bus rental allows your fan group to pre-game responsibly on the way to the stadium. There is plenty of room for coolers, grills, and chairs in the storage bays of a 56-passenger coach. After the game, your driver will be waiting at a designated spot to whisk you back to Greenwood, avoiding the post-game gridlock and surge pricing of rideshare apps.
