Since then, we've helped countless tour groups, birthday crews, and bachelorette parties hit every stop on their list and get home safely.

What Booking Winery & Brewery Tour Transportation With Party Bus in Indianapolis Looks Like
Bus Options Perfect for Any Winery or Brewery Tour in Indianapolis, Indiana
A tight crew of ten hitting four taprooms calls for something different than a 40-person corporate outing to Brown County wine country — and that's why we offer vehicles across the full size range. A 15-passenger minibus handles a bachelorette crawl through Fountain Square with ease, with reclining seats and climate control for the ride between stops. A 25- to 35-passenger minibus is the go-to for larger birthday groups or company outings hitting multiple breweries in one afternoon.
When a full group of 50+ wants to charter a day into the Hoosier Hills wine trail, a 56-passenger charter bus delivers undercarriage storage, onboard restrooms, and the legroom you want for a full-day haul south of I-465. Call 317-352-2863 to find the right fit for your headcount.

Winery & Brewery Tour Transportation Services Available in Indianapolis, Indiana and the Following Cities
Party Bus in Indianapolis serves the entire Central Indiana region — not just downtown. If your group is gathering in Carmel and wants a day trip to the Morgan County wineries, or you're based in Fishers and planning a night through the Broad Ripple taproom scene, we handle the route for you. We also coordinate pickups from Bloomington, Muncie, and Lafayette for groups making the drive into Indianapolis for a brewery crawl.
Our network of vehicles covers the full metro area, so no matter where your crew is starting from, we get everyone on board and on time. Call 317-352-2863 to set up your route.
Indianapolis Brewery Crawls: From Taproom Row to Fountain Square
Indianapolis has one of the most walkable craft beer scenes in the Midwest when the weather cooperates — but trying to coordinate an Uber surge for 20 people between Sun King Brewing (135 N College Ave) and Metazoa Brewing (140 S College Ave) at 9 p.m. on a Friday is where the evening starts to unravel. An Indianapolis brewery bus keeps the whole group moving together from stop to stop, whether you're hitting Beholder Brewing in Irvington, Flat 12 Bierwerks on Columbia Avenue, or threading through the Mass Ave arts district taprooms in one evening. Your group decides the pace; we handle the route.
No one splits off to grab their car, and no one has to watch their drink count because they're driving. Call 317-352-2863 to build your crawl itinerary.
Day Trips to Indiana Wine Country: Brown County and Beyond
Brown County wine country sits roughly an hour south of downtown Indianapolis on SR-46, and the drive down is genuinely scenic — rolling hills, covered bridges, and vineyards tucked into the Hoosier Hills. The catch is that SR-46 through Nashville, Indiana narrows considerably once you're past Columbus, parking at the wineries is either gravel lots or roadside pull-offs, and most groups are already deep into their tastings by the time they need to drive home. A day-trip charter bus out of Indianapolis is the obvious answer.
Groups headed to Oliver Winery (8024 N State Road 37, Bloomington) — Indiana's largest winery and one of the most-visited in the country — or Chateau Thomas Winery in Plainfield can board near downtown and step off at the tasting room entrance without anyone ever touching the wheel. For a full-day run hitting two or three estates, the onboard restroom on a charter bus means the group isn't hunting for a gas station between stops. Call 317-352-2863 to plan your wine country day trip.
Indianapolis Distillery Tours: Small-Batch Spirits Across the City
Indiana's craft distillery scene has grown fast, and Indianapolis is where a big chunk of it lives. Indiana Whiskey Company (1142 W Washington St) pours small-batch bourbons just west of White River State Park; Brew Link Distilling operates out of Plainfield with a solid lineup of whiskeys and gins; and Hotel Tango Distillery (702 Virginia Ave), a veteran-owned operation in Fountain Square, is one of the most visited craft spirits stops in the city. A distillery crawl that hits three of these in a single afternoon on the south side requires real coordination — street parking near Virginia Avenue on a weekend evening is minimal, and the distances between stops on the west side aren't walkable.
An Indianapolis minibus handles the rides between Hotel Tango, Indiana Whiskey, and a final stop at Cardinal Spirits (922 S Meridian St) without a single parking headache. Call 317-352-2863 to set your distillery route.
Indiana Beer, Wine & Spirits Festivals: Plan Your Group Transportation Early
Central Indiana's festival calendar fills up fast, and the transportation headaches at these events are just as predictable as the crowds. The Indiana State Fair in August draws over a million visitors to the fairgrounds on E 38th Street — the Ag/Hort Building craft beer showcase pulls serious crowds, parking lots along 38th fill before noon on weekends, and rideshare wait times spike badly by mid-afternoon. The Indy Winter Farmers' Market and Indiana Brewer's Cup pull dedicated craft beer crowds.
BrewHaHa, held annually in Muncie, is a popular multi-hour beer festival that draws groups from across Central Indiana — a charter bus from Indianapolis makes the 60-mile trip on I-69 far better than a five-car caravan trying to park in downtown Muncie. For any festival where surge pricing will hit $40-per-person on the ride home, one flat-rate charter bus for the whole group wins on math alone. Call 317-352-2863 to lock in your festival transportation before they book up.
Build Your Own Indianapolis Winery & Brewery Tour Itinerary
Not every great tour follows a pre-packaged route, and Party Bus in Indianapolis doesn't require one. Tell us your starting point — a hotel in Broad Ripple, a private residence in Carmel, a restaurant in Fountain Square — and we build the pickup around your itinerary. Want to start with a wine tasting at Easley Winery (205 N College Ave), work through the Massachusetts Avenue taprooms, and close the night at a distillery near White River State Park?
We coordinate the stops, the bus waits at each venue while your group is inside, and we get everyone home when the last pour is done. The party bus or minibus in Indianapolis you're booking is reserved for your group for the full block of hours — so there's no hustle to be back by a certain time. Call 317-352-2863 and tell us where you want to go.

Client Reviews of Our Winery & Brewery Tour Transportation in Indianapolis
Did a winery day with friends and the bus made it completely carefree. We hopped between tasting rooms without anyone worrying about getting back, and the ride between stops was comfortable and fun. The booking was easy and they confirmed our route ahead of time. Plenty of room to relax and chat as we went. It turned a simple outing into a perfect day trip out of Indianapolis. We can't wait to do it again.

Booked the bus for a pub crawl and it was the best way to do it. We bounced between spots, kept the music going on the bus, and nobody had to sit out or stress about getting around. Roomy inside with a great vibe and a smooth ride. Setting it up took no time and they were on schedule all night. Everyone in our group said it was the most fun we've had in ages.

We planned a tasting tour for a birthday and the bus was ideal. Comfortable, spacious, and the perfect home base between stops where we could relax and laugh about the day. Coordinating the pickups was simple and they kept us informed throughout. Not having to worry about the drive let everyone actually enjoy themselves. It made the whole outing feel like a treat. Highly recommend for a group like ours.

Thaddeus K.
Took the bus on a brewery and pub crawl with a big group and it was a fantastic time. The interior was roomy with a great sound setup, and the ride between places kept the party going the whole way. Booking was quick and they confirmed the timing clearly. Best of all, everyone got to indulge and still got around safely together. We're already planning the next one. Couldn't have gone better.
Frequently Asked Questions About our Indianapolis Winery & Brewery Tour Transportation Services
How far in advance should I book a bus for a winery or brewery tour in Indianapolis?
For most weeknight and off-peak weekend tours, two to four weeks out is workable. But Friday and Saturday evenings from May through October — when brewery crawls and winery day trips are most popular — tend to fill quickly. Bachelorette weekends and birthday groups booking a summer Saturday should aim for six to eight weeks out minimum.
Fall foliage weekends, when Brown County and Nashville, Indiana draw the largest day-trip crowds, routinely fill up available vehicles across the region. Call 317-352-2863 as soon as your date is set.
Can we make multiple stops at different breweries and wineries during one rental?
Absolutely. That's the whole point. You give us the list of stops — whether it's three taprooms on Mass Ave, a winery in Plainfield followed by two Fountain Square distilleries, or a full-day run down to Oliver Winery and back — and we coordinate the route and timing.
The bus stays with your group the entire block of hours, so no one is racing back to meet a pickup window.
What size bus works best for a brewery crawl in Indianapolis?
For groups of 10 to 20, a 15- to 20-passenger minibus is the right fit — maneuverable enough for the tighter streets in Irvington and Fountain Square and comfortable for the rides between stops. Groups of 20 to 35 move up to a larger minibus. When you're planning a full company outing or a combined friend group past 40 people, a charter bus with undercarriage storage and onboard restrooms makes a long day into wine country much more comfortable.
Call 317-352-2863 and we'll match you to the right vehicle.
Is the bus available to wait while our group is inside a tasting room?
Yes. Your rental is a dedicated block of hours, not a point-to-point drop-off. The bus waits at or near each venue while your group is inside, then moves on when you're ready.
For wineries in tighter areas like the Oliver Winery lot on SR-37 or street-adjacent spots in Fountain Square, we work out the waiting spot so the bus is right there when you walk out.
Can I bring bottles and wine purchases onto the bus?
Most guests pick up bottles at estate wineries or distilleries for the ride home — that's completely fine. Coordinate with our reservation team when you book if your group is planning a significant number of purchases, since undercarriage storage on larger vehicles is available for cases and bags. Open containers during transit follow Indiana's open container rules, so if you have questions about what's permitted, our team can walk you through the specifics when you call 317-352-2863.
Do you serve areas outside Indianapolis for winery and brewery tours?
Yes. Our network of vehicles covers the full Central Indiana region — including day trips south to Brown County and the Hoosier Hills wine trail, runs up to the Carmel arts district breweries, and festival transportation to Muncie, Bloomington, and Lafayette. Long-distance day trips with a full charter bus are available; just give us the route and the headcount and we'll build the quote.
Call 317-352-2863 for availability and an all-inclusive price.
