Excellent experience!

My experience with BusBank was exceptional. I worked with David Baird on a very last minute, very demanding, complicated trip and he delivered on requests that I would have thought to be impossible. In fact, other companies told me it was. My client asked for 18 matching buses to be secured just days ahead of their event. David met every demand, every deadline, and made my client and my company feel completely secure and confident by maintaining open communication through the entire process. BusBank crossed oceans to make our trip work. The day of the event, there was not a single issue. Everything went off without a hitch thanks to the hard work of David and his team. I’ve never worked with a company so determined to please their customers in any way they can. If you need one bus or an entire fleet, I would recommend this company over any other out there.

Things to know when planning your trip to NOLA
