I'm so glad we ended up booking our transportation through Cruise-A-Palooza! The bus was comfortable, clean, and we got to the control the temperature, music, and lights which was really nice!
Dan, our driver, was very punctual and communicative! We had such a great experience, and being on the other side after using their services, I can see why there are so many 5/5 star reviews!

We experienced excellent service with our party bus transportation that was clean, new, and comfortable. We were blown away by our experience with our driver, and for what the atmosphere of the party bus brought to our wedding day. 100% would recommend this as our experience with this party bus transportation made so many memories and moments that made our day so much more special. Some of the most fun we had that day was on the party bus!

Cruise-A-Palooza was such a fun transportation option for our wedding party!! Before our wedding, the company was easy to communicate with and was very responsive (I never waited longer than a couple of hours for a response to a question).
The day of, our driver showed up early and was very nice and professional!! The sound system on the bus was also a blast and got us all excited for the day!
I highly recommend Cruise-A-Palooza for anyone wanting a party transportation experience!

We rented from Cruise-A-Palooza for our wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made! From the moment we booked, the company was incredibly professional. They helped us choose the right car based on our guest list and were super responsive to all our questions.
On the big day, the bus arrived on time and looked fantastic—fully equipped with comfortable seating, mood lighting, and a great sound system. Our driver, Phil was incredibly friendly and made sure everyone felt safe while having fun.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Our driver, Phil, was so kind and funny. He showed up on time and was very professional in how he dressed. He tended to our needs and was quick to assist my mother-in-law who has mobility issues. You can tell that Phil takes pride in his work.
The bus it self was very clean and spacious. We could also adjust the temperature, play music via blue-tooth and pull down the shades to give us some privacy.
I would highly recommend this company to other brides who want a transport service for their big day!

Cruise-A-Palooza did an AMAZING job with my wedding. We had a call to set up the schedule in advance, and a confirmation call the week of. My driver was so kind, and drove safely and efficiently to each location. There were seriously no mistakes- everyone was picked up exactly when we planned, even though we had the driver move to various locations. It was seamless! The bus also had bluetooth, and our group had A LOT of fun listening to music on the way there and back. Could not have asked for a better company!

We highly recommend Cruise-A-Palooza! We are so glad we went with them.

Tom was our driver the day of our wedding. He texted both of us the morning of just letting us know everything was still good for that day. He picked everyone up on time and got us where we needed to be on time. He even offered to run to Kwik Trip to get us anything during the ceremony! If we had to add a stop, he got us there with no hesitation. He was wonderful to work with, as well as the company in general.

Using Cruise-a-Palooza as our shuttle service for guests was one of the best decisions we could have made for our wedding day! They were very communicative and easy to work with throughout the planning stages. The day of, we had a few changes to make last minute, but our driver was very professional, nice, and accommodating for us. The shuttle was prompt and on time making the trips bringing our guests back to the venue following the ceremony and safely back to their hotels at the end of the night. I would absolutely recommend them!

What an absolute delight it was to have Cruise-A-Palooza be a part of our wedding celebrations on July 28th! From the moment we stepped foot onto their stunning party bus, we knew we were in for an unforgettable ride. If I could sum up our experience in one word, it would be "stellar."
The professionalism and dedication displayed by Cruise-A-Palooza's team left us speechless. Right from the start, their communication was impeccable. The booking process was a breeze, and they patiently answered all of our questions and accommodated our specific requests. This level of attentiveness immediately set the tone for the rest of the experience.
On the day of our wedding, the party bus arrived right on time, gleaming and ready to take us on a journey of a lifetime. The attention to detail inside the bus was astounding – from the comfortable seating to the vibrant lighting and high-quality sound system, every element was designed to perfection. It was like stepping into our own private nightclub on wheels!
The real magic, however, came from the staff. Our driver was not only punctual and professional but also incredibly friendly and warm. He ensured that our entire wedding party felt comfortable and safe throughout the journey. He even went above and beyond to adjust the route according to our preferences, allowing us to take in some picturesque views and capture amazing photos along the way.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the atmosphere that Cruise-A-Palooza had created. The LED lights, the well-curated music playlist, and the overall ambiance had everyone dancing, laughing, and creating memories together. The spacious interior of the bus allowed us to move around freely, mingling with our guests and sharing stories in a setting that felt both luxurious and intimate.
As the night drew to a close, our journey with Cruise-A-Palooza came to an end, but the memories will stay with us forever. Our friends and family are still talking about how our wedding celebration was taken to the next level, all thanks to the incredible experience provided by Cruise-A-Palooza.
If you're looking to add an extra layer of excitement, luxury, and pure fun to your event, I wholeheartedly recommend Cruise-A-Palooza. They transformed our wedding day into an extraordinary adventure, and we are immensely grateful for the exceptional service they provided. Thank you, Cruise-A-Palooza, for making our special day even more magical!
In conclusion, if you're considering hiring a party bus company that goes above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable experience, look no further than Cruise-A-Palooza. They are truly a class apart and will elevate your event to new heights.

We could not have asked for a better experience with Cruise-A-Palooza! They provided shuttle service to our venue before the ceremony and back to hotels at the end of the night. Sam was our driver and made it a point to find us at the reception and introduce himself (he even brought a rose). He was so kind to all the guests and provided safe and fun transportation! At the end of the night, he made an extra trip for part of our wedding party that had to stay behind to deal with an issue. We recommend Cruise-A-Palooza to anyone looking for transportation!!!

This is the second time we have used Cruise-A-Palooza, and both times have been awesome experiences! For our wedding day, the set up was super easy, with several different bus sizes to choose from. Staff was great to talk with and answered all of our questions. The week of the wedding, Debbie called us to refresh us of all the important final details for our trip. On the day of the wedding, our driver was very helpful, the drive was smooth even despite a snow storm, and he got us to where we needed to go. Finally, the cost of the bus was much more affordable than competitors. We will be using Cruise-A-Palooza again in the future!

We hired Cruise-A-Palooza for the third time for an event and the third time was our wedding and they were nothing but perfect the entire time with us. Our driver was on time and courteous the entire time. She got us to our venue and picked up our guests and our guests were super entertained with the bus that was available for them. I plan on only booking with cruise-a-palooza if i have any further events for my self or my business.
Thank you to everyone for a wonderful time and making our wedding go off smoothly.
