Rent My Party Bus always the way to go! Been using the Black Onyx for 4+ years. They have kept this bus in top notch order - all lights, seats, and condition of the bus is like-new everytime. The driver Antonio is by far our favorite driver! He made our entire group feel comfortable and sets the vibe right off the start with his opening announcements! Will for sure rent again!

FAQ

Can we play our own music?

Yes, you can connect via Bluetooth and be the DJ.

How much does it cost to rent The Black Onyx Party Bus?

Full rates are posted right on this page — see the rate card above. Rates vary by day and hours, and Saturdays book first. Call or text 612-226-1188 to lock in your date.

Is there a deposit to reserve the bus?

Yes, your reservation is secured with a deposit. The remaining balance is typically due before your trip (we’ll confirm timing during booking).

 

How far in advance should I book?

Weekends (especially spring–fall) book fast. For the best time slots, book 2–6+ weeks ahead. Sometimes we can still pull off a day of event but it’s a lot harder.

What’s included in the rental?

A professional driver, the bus, and all onboard features (sound system, lighting, photo spots, etc.). You’ll also get a clear itinerary plan before pickup.

How many people fit on The Black Onyx Party Bus?

This bus seats up to 40 passengers comfortably.

Where can you pick us up and drop us off?

We can pick up/drop off anywhere in the Twin Cities (and beyond). 

Can we make multiple stops?

Yes, you can make as many stops as you like as long as it’s within your time frame. 

How long should we book The Black Onyx Party Bus for?

Most groups book 3–5 hours for dinner + bars, or 6+ hours for a full night out.

What if we run late at pickup?

We recommend having your group ready early. Late starts may reduce drive time and stops, depending on the schedule

Can we add overtime during the trip?

Usually yes if the bus is available.

Can we decorate the bus?

Light, removable decorations are usually fine (think balloons, banners, table décor). No confetti, glitter, silly string, or anything permanent.

Do you allow food on the bus?

Small snacks are usually okay. If you want to bring a full meal/catering, ask us first so we can plan for cleanup.

Is there a cleaning fee?

A standard cleaning policy applies. Excessive mess may result in an additional cleaning charge—keep it simple and you’re good.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancellation terms depend on how close you are to the reservation date. The cancellation policy is listed in our Terms & Conditions.

How much should we tip the driver?

A 20% driver gratuity is required on all rentals and is added at booking — your quoted total already covers it, so there’s nothing to figure out on the night. If your driver goes above and beyond, extra cash tips are appreciated but never expected.

Does the Black Onyx run in winter?

Yes — the Black Onyx runs year-round and is fully heated, so it stays warm through a Minnesota January. Winter dates are popular for holiday light tours and birthdays, and if a snowstorm ever makes travel unsafe, we’ll work with you to reschedule.
