This was way more fun than we ever thought. We rented the Purple Rain bus and it was magical and seen from several blocks away. Ashley the driver was very personable, knowledgeable, and aided choreographing our adventure. Definitely spacious and sound system was amazing. Cannot wait to book again.
Rachel! Gall dang! What an excellent time! We had the good fortune of having her pilot the Prince themed Purple Rain bus for our most recent employee party and it was nothing short of fabulous. I work in an industry where we get party buses for not only for our employee parties but also events such as Twins opening day, bachelor parties, etc and I have to say I will keep coming back to this company based on the excellent service, easy booking, and beyond that, the wonderful staff who make the experience! 100% recommend!
We had the BEST time on the Purple Rain Party bus!! Our driver was Antonio, he was fun and helpful throughout! We had a rowdy group of Mature adults dancing, singing laughing all night long!!
I had the best time on purple rain with Rachel she’s the best driver
Purple rain bus was so much fun! I recommend this bus and the company is super friendly!
