Explore The Sacramento Charter Bus & Party Bus Amenities
Not every group trip to Sacramento calls for the same ride. A 15- to 30-passenger party bus typically includes a full-length bar setup, color-changing LED lighting, flat-panel TVs, Bluetooth audio, and wraparound perimeter seating — right for a bachelorette night through Midtown or a birthday crawl along K Street. Sprinter vans and Sprinter limos are a smart pick for smaller groups, with leather seating, USB charging, and tinted windows.
For larger groups heading to a Sacramento Republic FC match at Heart Health Park or a corporate summit at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center, a full-size charter bus adds onboard restrooms, overhead storage, undercarriage luggage bays, reclining seats, and WiFi — no pit-stop juggling required. Amenities vary by vehicle, but comparing them side by side on Partybus-rental.net takes about 30 seconds. Check out the party bus amenities guide or the charter bus amenities guide to see exactly what's available.

Sacramento Party Bus Prices
Sacramento party bus and charter bus rental prices vary based on vehicle type, your date, and how long you need the bus. To give you a general idea of what to plan around: 14-passenger Sprinter limos typically run $150–$275/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $175–$325/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $225–$400/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $275–$475/hour; and 40–56 passenger charter buses generally run $130–$275/hour or $1,100–$2,200/day. Peak dates — Sacramento Kings playoff runs, Aftershock Festival weekend in October, and prom season (April–May) — push rates toward the higher end and reduce availability fast.
Those ranges are ballpark figures to help you plan; the quote moves with your specific date, vehicle, and itinerary. The fastest way to get pricing for your trip is to fill out the quick online form or call 833-458-7001 — you can have a quote in about a minute. See the party bus prices page for a deeper breakdown.

See Sacramento Party Bus Options in One Place
Here's the honest pitch: Partybus-rental.net is not a bus company, and that's actually the best part. Because this site connects you to a large network of transportation providers serving Sacramento — not just one fleet — you get options. Different vehicle types, different price points, different availability windows.
You're comparing, not just accepting whatever one company happens to have open on your date.
The process couldn't be simpler. Enter your trip details — group size, date, pickup and drop-off — and within seconds you'll see vehicle options and pricing side by side. No account, no back-and-forth, no callbacks.
If you'd rather talk it through, a support team is available every day at 833-458-7001 to help you request a custom quote around your headcount, timeline, and budget.
Sacramento has specific transportation pain points: limited parking and street closures around Golden 1 Center on Kings game nights, gridlock on I-5 and Business 80 during the State Fair, and Midtown bar crawls where parking on K Street and L Street is an exercise in frustration. Partybus-rental.net helps you skip all of it — one bus, one plan, one quoted rate. That's the whole point.
Group Transportation Options in Sacramento
Whatever's bringing your group to Sacramento, Partybus-rental.net makes it easy to find the right bus for it. From airport transfers and Kings game shuttles to wedding day transportation, bachelorette nights through Midtown, Aftershock Festival shuttles, corporate event transportation, and Lodi wine tours — there's a bus in the network ready for your trip. Call 833-458-7001 to get moving!
Sacramento International Airport Group Shuttles and Transfers
Sacramento International Airport (SMF) (6900 Airport Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95837) handled 13.9 million passengers in 2025 across two terminals — Terminal A and Terminal B — connected by an elevated walkway. Commercial bus pickup at SMF is coordinated through the Ground Transportation Center on the lower level of each terminal's baggage claim, with commercial vehicles using designated staging lanes. SMF does not allow unscheduled curbside lingering for oversized vehicles, so timing your pickup around when the full group has cleared baggage claim is essential.
For groups flying into SMF and heading downtown — about 12 miles south on I-5 — a minibus or Sprinter van keeps the whole group together instead of splitting into three rideshares at the curb. And for large conventions arriving at SMF heading to the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center (1400 J St, Sacramento, CA 95814), a charter bus handles luggage in undercarriage bays and delivers everyone straight to the J Street entrance. Review the official SMF ground transportation page before your travel date for current staging protocols.
Call 833-458-7001 to get your airport shuttle quote set up!
Sacramento Bachelor and Bachelorette Party Bus Rentals
Midtown Sacramento's grid of bars, restaurants, and nightlife venues between 16th and 21st Streets makes it one of the easiest party crawl footprints in Northern California — everything is walkable once you're there, but actually parking near the grid on a Friday or Saturday night is not. Street parking on K Street, L Street, and 19th Street fills completely by 9pm, and private lots charge $20+ on weekend nights.
A Sacramento party bus rental solves this cold: your group loads up, gets dropped at your first stop, and the bus stages while you move through the night. Popular stops include Badlands Sacramento on K Street, Harlow's (2708 J St, Sacramento, CA 95816) for live music, and Bottle & Barlow (1000 K St) for craft cocktails. End the night at Old Ironsides (1901 10th St, Sacramento, CA 95811) or 1016 Club without anyone managing a carpool at midnight.
A 15- to 30-passenger party bus with LED lighting and Bluetooth audio keeps the energy up from the first stop to the last. See the bachelor and bachelorette transportation page for more on what to expect.
Sacramento Birthday Party Bus Rentals, Sweet 16s, and Quinceañeras
Sacramento's event venue scene has grown fast — the metro area now has dozens of dedicated banquet halls and event spaces that host quinceañeras and Sweet 16 celebrations for the area's large Latino community. Venues like Visions Banquet Hall (2030 W El Camino Ave, Sacramento, CA 95833), Royal Banquet & Conference Center (3540 Marysville Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95838), and Eden Hall (2225 Watt Ave, Sacramento, CA 95825) regularly book large-group transportation for these celebrations.
A Sacramento birthday party bus seating 15 to 50 passengers makes the arrival part of the event — and for quinceañeras, a white or black party bus with color-matched LED lighting is a guest-favorite entrance moment. For adult milestone birthdays heading to dinner in the Fab 40s neighborhood or a night out in East Sacramento, a Sprinter limo or 20-passenger party bus is the right fit. Use the online quote tool to check availability for your specific date — Sacramento's event calendar is busy spring through fall, and popular dates book out fast.
Concert and Live Event Bus Rentals in Sacramento
Sacramento's biggest concert headache isn't the show — it's the aftermath. After Aftershock Festival wraps each October at Discovery Park (1000 Garden Hwy, Sacramento, CA 95833), the Garden Highway bottlenecks hard and the I-5 on-ramp backs up for over a mile as 40,000+ attendees try to exit simultaneously. Rideshare surge pricing during that window regularly triples from normal rates, and the designated rideshare pickup zone at the festival fills with wait times of 30–45 minutes after headliners end.
A Sacramento concert bus rental stages outside the congestion zone and waits while your group exits — no surge, no hunting for your car in a packed gravel lot. For shows at Golden 1 Center (500 David J Stern Walk, Sacramento, CA 95814), official venue guidance lists drop-off locations on 4th Street, J Street, and I Street near the arena. The concert transportation page has more on what to expect.
For Aftershock or Beyond Wonderland Sacramento, book 6–8 weeks minimum before the event date.
Corporate Event and Employee Shuttle Transportation in Sacramento
Sacramento is the state capital, which means conventions, legislative events, and government agency gatherings move in and out of downtown all year. The SAFE Credit Union Convention Center (1400 J St, Sacramento, CA 95814) draws trade shows, association meetings, and state agency conferences that regularly require shuttle circuits between downtown hotels — the Hyatt Regency Sacramento, Kimpton Sawyer, and Sheraton Grand are all within a few blocks — and the convention floor.
Parking downtown near J Street runs $15–$30/day in nearby garages on normal days, and significantly more during major conventions when surface lots fill before 9am. A 35- to 40-passenger charter bus or minibus keeps the entire team on one schedule and eliminates the parking coordination entirely. For legislative sessions at the State Capitol (1315 10th St, Sacramento, CA 95814), a minibus with A/C and reclining seats is the smart fit for staff groups arriving from hotels on L Street and K Street.
Call 833-458-7001 to discuss multi-day shuttle contracts and group rates for Sacramento corporate events.
Private Event Transportation in and Around Sacramento
Sacramento's biggest private event pain points cluster around a handful of annual situations. The California State Fair at Cal Expo (1600 Exposition Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95815) runs late July through mid-August and draws 500,000+ visitors — Exposition Boulevard clogs by late morning on weekends, and the parking lots fill by noon during headliner concerts on the grandstand stage. A private charter bus or party bus drops your group at the Cal Expo front gates while everyone else circles the lot.
Farm-to-Fork Festival each September takes over Capitol Mall and shuts down stretches of downtown Sacramento streets for the weekend, making car-based group logistics genuinely difficult. A private event bus rental in Sacramento handles all of it — one vehicle, one drop-off, one pickup window. For large family reunions spread across Sacramento and Elk Grove, or corporate team-building days at venues like Golfland Sunsplash (1893 Whiterock Rd, Rancho Cordova, CA 95670), a charter bus keeps everyone on the same schedule without the seven-car caravan.
Book your private event bus at least 4–6 weeks out; Sacramento weekends fill up faster than most people expect.
Sacramento Prom and Homecoming Party Bus Rentals
The Sacramento metro area — including Elk Grove Unified, Sacramento City Unified, Folsom Cordova Unified, and Roseville Joint Union — runs prom season from late April through late May, and homecoming falls in October. That's a lot of high schools holding formals within a compressed window, and demand for party buses spikes hard during both periods. Sacramento-area prom bus demand in particular is intense — the region has more than 30 high schools across the metro, and the best vehicles get snapped up by December or January for May dates.
For prom: book by January or expect to pay significantly more — or find nothing available. A 20- to 30-passenger party bus is the most popular configuration for prom groups heading to venues like the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center, Arden Hills Resort, or Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova. The prom transportation page has everything you need to know about coordinating the pickup plan.
Call 833-458-7001 as soon as your date is confirmed — waiting until March for a May prom is a real gamble.
Sacramento School Field Trip and Student Group Bus Rentals
Teachers and trip organizers in Sacramento have no shortage of strong field trip destinations — but coordinating cars, managing carpool liability, and finding parking at high-traffic venues adds a layer of stress that a charter bus eliminates entirely. The California State Railroad Museum (125 I St, Sacramento, CA 95814) and the California Museum (1020 O St, Sacramento, CA 95814) are two of the region's most popular school group destinations, both in downtown Sacramento where bus drop-off requires advance coordination and no-show parking for private vehicles is essentially nonexistent.
The Sacramento Zoo at William Land Park (3930 W Land Park Dr, Sacramento, CA 95822) has a dedicated school group entrance and recommends that bus groups contact them in advance for coordinated drop-off. For university groups — Sacramento State, UC Davis, or Sacramento City College — charter buses with WiFi and power outlets handle longer drives to Bay Area venues, Reno, or Los Angeles without the road trip coordination headache. ADA-accessible vehicles are available through the network; note it when requesting your quote.
See the school event transportation page for more. Call 833-458-7001 to build your field trip plan!
Sacramento Kings Games and Sporting Event Bus Rentals
Golden 1 Center (500 David J Stern Walk, Sacramento, CA 95814) sits in the heart of downtown Sacramento's arena district — and that location, which is fantastic for walkability, is the exact reason parking is so painful. The closest garages (800 K Parking, Downtown Commons garage on 7th Street) charge $25–$40 on game nights and fill completely for high-demand matchups. Street parking within six blocks is metered and typically gone two hours before tip-off.
After the game, the K Street rideshare queue backs up immediately and wait times of 20–30 minutes are normal on a sold-out night.
A Sacramento Kings game charter bus or party bus bypasses the whole situation. Drop-off locations near the arena include 4th Street, J Street, and I Street, and pickup at the end of the night is already arranged, so your group skips the rideshare queue entirely. For Sacramento Republic FC matches at Heart Health Park (1600 Exposition Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95815), on-site parking is available but tight during sellouts.
Check the official Golden 1 Center parking and directions page before game day for current lot assignments and road closures. Call 833-458-7001 to lock in your game-day bus!
Sacramento Wedding Transportation and Guest Shuttle Service
Sacramento's wedding venue scene spans downtown lofts, Gold Hill wine-country estates, Elk Grove banquet halls, and Folsom lakeside venues — which means guests arriving from Sacramento hotels face real distance and navigation challenges on wedding day. The drive from downtown Sacramento hotels to a venue like Vizcaya (2019 21st St, Sacramento, CA 95818) or Citizen Hotel ballroom is manageable, but a ceremony at a venue like Villa Florentina (El Dorado Hills) or Sunridge Golf Club adds 25–35 minutes of freeway time each direction.
A Sacramento wedding shuttle bus keeps guests on your timeline, eliminates the "I got lost on Highway 50" call at 6:15pm, and means nobody has to manage the drive home after dinner and an open bar. A 35-passenger minibus running hotel-block-to-venue loops is the most common configuration for Sacramento wedding weekends. For the bridal party itself, a 14-passenger Sprinter limo handles the morning venue circuit with room for dress bags, flowers, and the whole group.
Call 833-458-7001 early — May through October is Sacramento's busiest wedding season and weekend dates go fast.
Lodi Wine Country and Sacramento Pub Crawl Bus Rentals
Move over, Napa — Lodi, California is 35 miles south of Sacramento on Highway 99, and it's one of the most underrated wine touring regions on the West Coast. The Lodi American Viticultural Area (AVA) covers 100,000+ acres and includes more than 85 wineries along routes like West Turner Road and East Woodbridge Road. Popular stops include Michael David Winery (4580 W Highway 12, Lodi, CA 95240), Jessie's Grove Winery (1973 W Turner Rd, Lodi, CA 95242), and LangeTwins Family Winery (1525 E Jahant Rd, Acampo, CA 95220) — all of which welcome tour groups but require coordination for large buses in advance.
A Lodi wine tour bus rental from Sacramento makes the math obvious: your group rides together, nobody gets stuck with the Designated Driver lottery, and the round trip timing is entirely on your schedule. Closer to Sacramento, a Midtown pub crawl hitting Weatherstone Coffee & Records (812 21st St) through Shady Lady Saloon (1409 R St, Sacramento, CA 95811) and on to Tank House BBQ (1925 J St) is a natural party bus itinerary — just know that Midtown weekend nights mean zero street parking near R Street. The bus handles all of it.
Call 833-458-7001 to build your Lodi wine tour or Sacramento pub crawl itinerary!

Frequently Asked Questions About Sacramento Party Bus Rentals
How does this website work?
Partybus-rental.net helps you compare bus rental options; it is not the bus company and does not rent, own, or operate vehicles. When you submit the quote form, your trip details go through a booking company so you can review pricing and available vehicles for your date. You compare the options and book through the process shown with your quote.
How much does a party bus cost in Sacramento, California?
Sacramento party bus rental prices vary based on the vehicle type, how long you need it, and the specific date. General ranges to help you plan: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $150–$275/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $175–$325/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $225–$400/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $275–$475/hour; and 40–56 passenger charter buses run $130–$275/hour or $1,100–$2,200/day. Rates push higher during peak periods — Aftershock Festival weekend (October), Sacramento Kings playoff home games, prom season (April–May), and the California State Fair (late July–mid-August).
Those ranges are planning figures, not quotes — the quote depends on your specific trip. Fill out the quick online form or call 833-458-7001 and you can have pricing in about a minute. See the party bus prices page for more detail.
What is Partybus-rental.net?
Partybus-rental.net is a bus quote-comparison website — not a bus company, and not a transportation operator. It doesn't own vehicles or provide trips directly. What it does is connect you to a large network of transportation providers serving Sacramento and surrounding areas, so you can compare vehicle types and rates in one place instead of calling company after company.
Think of it as the fast route from "I need a bus" to "here are your options" — in about 30 seconds online or one quick phone call.
Where do charter buses park at Golden 1 Center for Kings games?
Golden 1 Center sits in downtown Sacramento's arena district, and dedicated oversized vehicle or charter bus parking is not available on-site. On game nights, the closest garages — including the 800 K Street Parking Garage and the DOCO garage on 7th Street — fill quickly and charge $25–$40. The practical move for group buses is a drop-off near 4th Street, J Street, or I Street, with the bus staging at a pre-arranged location nearby and returning for pickup at an agreed time after the final buzzer.
This eliminates the post-game rideshare queue entirely. Review the official Golden 1 Center parking and directions page before your visit for current road closure and access information.
Where does the bus drop off at Discovery Park for Aftershock Festival?
Aftershock Festival is held at Discovery Park (1000 Garden Hwy, Sacramento, CA 95833) each October, typically drawing 40,000+ attendees over multiple days. The festival uses both the Garden Highway and Jibboom Street entrances, and traffic backs up significantly in the two hours before gates open and for 45–60 minutes after headliners end. The festival designates separate rideshare, shuttle, and general parking areas — exact drop-off zone assignments are released closer to the event each year on the official Aftershock site.
For large charter buses, confirming the commercial vehicle drop-off zone directly with festival operations before the event day is the right call. Book your Aftershock bus at least 6–8 weeks ahead; availability for October festival weekend goes fast across the Sacramento region.
How far is Sacramento from the Lodi wine country, and does a charter bus work for that trip?
Lodi is about 35 miles south of downtown Sacramento on Highway 99 — typically a 35–45 minute drive depending on traffic. A charter bus or minibus handles this route comfortably, and most Lodi wineries have parking areas that can accommodate tour-size vehicles, though it's worth calling ahead for large groups (20+) to confirm access and group tasting availability. The practical advantage of a bus on this route: Highway 99 south of Sacramento is an easy run, the wineries are spread across flat agricultural roads with easy bus access, and the round trip timing is completely on your schedule.
For a group of 15–30, a minibus is the right fit; for 30+, a full charter bus with undercarriage storage handles the wine haul on the way back, too.
What's the best vehicle for a Sacramento Midtown bar crawl?
For a Midtown bar crawl — typically running between R Street, K Street, J Street, and the 16th–21st Street corridor — a 20- to 30-passenger party bus is the most popular choice. The streets in this area are standard Sacramento grid width and party buses navigate them without issue. The real advantage over driving is that Midtown weekend parking near the R Street Corridor and K Street fills completely by 9–10pm, and moving between stops means finding a new spot each time.
A party bus with LED lighting, Bluetooth audio, and onboard bar setup keeps the energy up between stops and handles all the logistics your group doesn't have to. A 14-passenger Sprinter limo also works well for smaller groups of 10–12 who want the same experience at a lower rate.
How far in advance should I book a bus in Sacramento?
For most Sacramento trips outside peak periods, 4–6 weeks of lead time is workable. But for high-demand dates, waiting is a real gamble — and here's what that looks like specifically:
- Prom season (April–May): Book by January. Dozens of Sacramento-area high schools hold proms in a 6-week window. The best vehicles are claimed by December for May dates. Waiting until March typically means higher rates or limited selection.
- Aftershock Festival (October): Book 6–8 weeks out minimum. October festival weekend is one of the busiest bus rental periods in the Sacramento calendar.
- California State Fair (late July–mid-August): Book 3–4 weeks ahead; Cal Expo weekends during the Fair have heavy demand.
- Sacramento Kings playoffs: If a playoff run extends into May, same-week booking becomes very difficult. Get ahead of it.
For weddings, quinceañeras, or any booked-venue event: lock in transportation as soon as the venue is confirmed. Sacramento's spring-through-fall event calendar is busy, and the earlier you call 833-458-7001, the more options you'll have.
Popular Sacramento Party Bus Destinations
Sacramento and the surrounding region have no shortage of destinations that draw group transportation — from arena district game nights to Lodi wine trails to Gold Rush-era river towns. These are six of the most popular spots that groups book buses to in the Sacramento area, along with the logistical details you'll actually need. Your destination might not be on this list, and that's fine — you can find a bus for anywhere in the region.
Call 833-458-7001 and a support team will help with the routing.
Golden 1 Center
Golden 1 Center (500 David J Stern Walk, Sacramento, CA 95814) is home to the NBA's Sacramento Kings and hosts major concerts and events year-round with a seating capacity of 17,608. The arena sits in the heart of downtown Sacramento's Downtown Commons (DOCO) development — great for walkability, genuinely difficult for group parking. The closest garages charge $25–$40 on event nights and reach capacity for high-demand games.
The rideshare pickup area on 7th Street backs up 20–30 minutes after events end. Charter bus and party bus drop-off locations near the arena include 4th Street, J Street, and I Street, putting your group steps from the box office while everyone else circles the block. After the event, your bus picks the group up at a prearranged time — no queue, no surge pricing.
Review the official Golden 1 Center parking page before game day. Address: 500 David J Stern Walk, Sacramento, CA 95814 | Phone: (916) 701-5000
Discovery Park / Aftershock Festival
Discovery Park (1000 Garden Hwy, Sacramento, CA 95833) sits at the confluence of the Sacramento and American Rivers, just off I-5 north of downtown. It's the home of Aftershock Festival each October — one of Northern California's largest rock festivals, drawing 40,000+ attendees daily across multiple stages. The park has both Garden Highway and Jibboom Street entrances, and traffic backs up hard on festival days, with post-show congestion lasting 45–60 minutes after the headliner ends.
Rideshare surge pricing during that exit window is significant and wait times in the designated rideshare zone stretch well past 30 minutes on peak nights. A charter bus or party bus stages away from the congestion and waits while your group exits at your own pace, skipping the surge entirely. For large groups, a 40–56 passenger charter bus with undercarriage storage handles gear and camping equipment.
Confirm commercial vehicle drop-off zone details on the official Aftershock Festival site as the event approaches. Address: 1000 Garden Hwy, Sacramento, CA 95833
SAFE Credit Union Convention Center
The SAFE Credit Union Convention Center (1400 J St, Sacramento, CA 95814) anchors the capital's convention district with 240,000+ square feet of event space and hosts major state agency conferences, trade shows, and association meetings throughout the year. On peak convention days, parking in nearby downtown garages — including the 10th & J Street Garage and Sheraton Grand garage — runs $20–$35/day and fills by mid-morning. The Convention Center's J Street and 14th Street entrances are accessible by bus, with drop-off on J Street directly at the main entrance.
For multi-day convention groups staying at nearby hotels like the Kimpton Sawyer (500 J St) or Hyatt Regency Sacramento (1209 L St), a shuttle minibus running morning and evening loops eliminates daily parking costs and keeps attendees on the conference schedule. A 35-passenger minibus is the right fit for most corporate shuttle circuits in this corridor. Call 833-458-7001 for multi-day shuttle contract pricing.

Old Sacramento Waterfront (along the Sacramento River between I Street and Capitol Mall, Sacramento, CA 95814) is a 28-acre National Historic Landmark district with Gold Rush-era storefronts, the California State Railroad Museum, and the Delta King riverboat hotel. It's one of Sacramento's most visited areas, particularly for school groups, tourists, and private events. Street parking along I Street and 2nd Street in Old Sacramento is extremely limited — metered, enforced, and typically full on weekends by late morning.
Commercial bus drop-off in Old Sacramento uses the designated passenger drop-off area on 2nd Street, with oversized vehicles typically staging on the surface along I-5 frontage roads nearby. For school field trips to the California State Railroad Museum (125 I St, Sacramento, CA 95814), contact the museum's group programs office in advance to coordinate bus arrival and group entrance.

Heart Health Park (Sacramento Republic FC)
Heart Health Park (1600 Exposition Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95815) is the home pitch of Sacramento Republic FC and hosts USL Championship matches. The stadium sits on the grounds of Cal Expo north of downtown, with on-site parking available in surface lots — but those lots reach capacity for sellout matches and Republic FC has a passionate, high-attendance fanbase. Parking at adjacent Cal Expo lots is sometimes used for overflow on high-demand match days.
Group bus drop-off uses the main Cal Expo entrance approach, and oversized vehicles have navigated the lot roads without issue on normal match days. A 25- to 40-passenger party bus or charter bus is a popular configuration for Republic supporter groups coming from Midtown and East Sacramento, where parking is the same weekend-night headache. Check the official Sacramento Republic FC getting here page for current lot and transit information before match day.

Lodi Wine Country
The Lodi American Viticultural Area — 35 miles south of Sacramento on Highway 99 — is one of California's most productive wine regions, with over 85 wineries spread across the Woodbridge and Acampo appellations. The drive is straightforward: Highway 99 South to the Lodi/Turner Road exits. Popular group stops include Michael David Winery (4580 W Highway 12, Lodi, CA 95240), which offers a large tasting room and food menu; Jessie's Grove Winery (1973 W Turner Rd, Lodi, CA 95242), one of Lodi's oldest family estates; and McCay Cellars (250 N School St, Lodi, CA 95240) in downtown Lodi.
Large charter buses have adequate room at most of the rural vineyard properties, but calling ahead for groups of 20+ is always the right call. A minibus handles the Lodi touring circuit comfortably for groups of 15–30. For groups wanting to end the tour in downtown Lodi for dinner, on-street parking on Pine Street and School Street is manageable by bus.
