Arlington Heights Party Bus

Arlington Heights Party Bus Rental

Northwest suburb bar crawls, Chicago round trips, wedding transportation, and birthday nights out — a private party bus that keeps your whole crew together from Vail Avenue to River North and back.

The Northwest Suburbs Deserve Better Than Five Ubers

Arlington Heights is the entertainment hub of the northwest suburbs. The downtown corridor on Vail Avenue and Campbell Street has a concentrated bar and restaurant scene that rivals plenty of Chicago neighborhoods. Add the Metropolis Performing Arts Centre, a growing wedding venue circuit in the surrounding area, and easy access to I-90 and the Northwest Tollway for Chicago runs — it's one of the most active party bus markets outside the city.

The logistics problem in Arlington Heights is the same one every suburb faces: your group is spread across Arlington Heights, Palatine, Rolling Meadows, and Buffalo Grove, everyone wants to go out, and no one wants to be the person who doesn't drink because they're driving. Surge pricing on rideshares on a Saturday night in the suburbs adds up fast, and you never know if a driver is actually coming from 40 minutes away.

A party bus solves the northwest suburb logistics problem completely. One pickup loop through your group's addresses, everyone on the bus together, the night starts on the bus not in a parking lot, and you get home safely without anybody doing math on surge prices at 1am. Royal Carriage Limousine serves Arlington Heights and the entire northwest suburb corridor regularly.

Arlington Heights tip: Downtown Arlington Heights has a designated drop-off and staging zone near the Vail Avenue entertainment district. We know where to park between stops so the bus is always nearby. If your bar crawl route spans more than a few blocks — say, starting at Metropolis Square and ending at one of the spots near the Metra station — we'll choreograph the bus movement to match your group's pace.

Vail Avenue Bar Crawl

The downtown Arlington Heights entertainment strip — Rack House, Moody's Pub, The Tap House, and more along Vail and Campbell. The bus stages nearby while your group hops between spots on foot. No one designates, no one misses a stop, no one's calling Lyft at midnight.

Arlington Heights to Chicago

Suburb-to-city route: pickup loop through Arlington Heights and nearby towns, I-90 or I-94 into Chicago, River North or Wicker Park bar circuit, return to the northwest suburbs. One of the most popular routes we run — makes a Chicago night out easy for suburban groups.
