Rent a Bus To Visit Gainesville Neighborhoods
With a charter bus or minibus rental from Gainesville Charter Bus, you’ll be able to travel comfortably to all of Gainesville’s top districts.

Duckpond
The historic Duckpond district offers tree-lined streets with preserved architecture of Victorian mansions. The area also has a variety of eclectic boutiques, local eateries, and even a farmer’s market on select weekends. This neighborhood is a lovely place to experience old-fashioned Gainesville culture. The tight roads around the historic houses and businesses aren’t ideal for large-scale vehicles, so have your bus driver drop your group off and meet you when it’s time to roll on to your next stop! You can always take advantage of free WiFi and reclining seats on the bus as you rest.

Downtown
Downtown Gainesville isn’t just the central business district; it’s a hotspot for locals to have some fun! This area is the place to be if you’re seeking a little night time adventure. Take a tour of a historical theatre, head to the High Dive for a night of live music, or try out some arcade games at Arcade Bar, the perfect hangout space for groups of friends with kids.

Innovation District
On the southern side of the University of Florida campus, this high-tech district is focused on supporting and providing resources for innovators and new businesses. Book a private charter bus to easily traverse this neighborhood with your team of entrepreneurs, and get to your work appointments without a hitch! You’ll want to consider reserving a vehicle with onboard WiFi to help your team stay on top of work.

Midtown
Another popular place for those who want a good time, the Midtown neighborhood borders University of Florida’s campus. On any given night, this neighborhood is bustling with college-aged and young adults. Explore bars, restaurants, cafes, and other venues that attract a rowdy (but generally fun-loving) crowd.
