Popular Athens Shuttle Bus Routes

Atlanta to Athens

Athens wedding planners often call Shuttlebus.net for guest transportation from Atlanta to Athens for destination weddings at venues like the Taylor-Grady House or 255 Milledge. One recent group needed a shuttle bus to bring 80 guests from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) to downtown Athens hotels, then run a hotel-to-venue loop on the wedding day. A reservation specialist recommended two 40-passenger shuttle buses for the airport transfer and wedding day service. The airport-to-Athens segment took about 1.5 hours each way, with each bus costing $1,800 for the roundtrip transfer. On the wedding day, the two shuttles ran a 5-hour hotel-to-venue loop at $250 per hour per bus. The total cost for both shuttles for the day was $2,500. The entire Athens wedding shuttle package totaled $6,100 for two days of service.

University of Georgia to Classic Center

~1 Mile

During the University of Georgia’s annual Homecoming Week, the alumni association needed a quick and easy way to shuttle a group of 120 alumni from the UGA Arch at North Campus to the Classic Center for a reunion banquet. The distance is just under a mile, but with downtown Athens traffic and limited parking near the venue, a private shuttle bus was the best solution. The group was split into two 56-passenger shuttle buses, making multiple loops between the Arch and the Classic Center from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Each trip took about 10–15 minutes, allowing everyone to arrive on time and together. The cost for two shuttle buses for four hours, including fuel and Athens parking fees, came to $2,720.

Approximate travel time: 10–15 minutes

Athens to Atlanta Airport Shuttle Bus

~80 Miles

A local Athens-based tech company needed to get 40 employees to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport for a corporate retreat. Rather than having everyone drive separately and pay for long-term parking, the company booked a private airport shuttle bus rental to handle all transportation logistics. The driver picked up employees at the company’s office on Broad Street at 6:00 AM and made one additional stop at a Park & Ride lot off Epps Bridge Parkway to collect a few more team members. The bus followed GA-316 to I-85 South, dropped passengers curbside at the airport's South Terminal, then returned to Athens for a second round-trip later that afternoon.
This airport shuttle bus rental cost $2,400 for the full-day, 8-hour service, which included two roundtrips between Athens and Atlanta Airport.

Estimated travel time: 1.5 hours each way

I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable transportation company to get you where you need to go.

We used Shuttlebus.net to shuttle our alumni group to a UGA football game and it was the best decision ever. The driver was on time, the bus was spotless, and the whole day ran smoothly. Everyone raved about how easy it was getting to and from Sanford Stadium without having to deal with Athens traffic or parking. Will definitely use them again next season.

Popular Athens Party Bus Routes

Athens to Atlanta

~72 miles

A University of Georgia student organization booked a party bus to take 25 members to a concert at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. They were picked up at the UGA Arch in downtown Athens at 4:00 PM, drove straight down Highway 316 to avoid I-85 traffic, and arrived in Atlanta by 6:00 PM—plenty of time before the concert started at 7:30 PM. The driver dropped everyone off at the CNN Center entrance, parked nearby, and waited to take the group back to Athens after the show. The group was back on campus by midnight, and everyone appreciated not having to drive or pay for rideshares to and from the venue. This trip cost $2,200 for an all-day rental.

Approximate travel time: 1.5 hours each way

University of Georgia Campus to Sanford Stadium

~1 Mile (on-campus shuttle)

An Athens-based alumni group needed transportation for 40 guests attending a University of Georgia football game at Sanford Stadium. They booked a 40-passenger party bus to run a continuous shuttle between their downtown Athens hotel and the stadium for a Saturday game day. The bus arrived at the hotel at 9:00 AM, made three trips to drop off guests at the stadium's designated bus drop-off zone on East Campus Road, and then ran return trips starting at 4:00 PM after the game ended. The bus provided onboard storage for coolers and tailgating supplies, and the group used the sound system to play music during the ride. The total cost for the full-day rental was $2,300.

Approximate travel time: 5 minutes each way (on-campus, varies with game day traffic)

Athens to Lake Lanier Islands

~65 Miles

Athens students celebrating the end of finals week booked a party bus to take their group of 30 friends from downtown Athens to Margaritaville at Lanier Islands for a day of sun and fun. Their party bus picked them up at 9:00 am from a central downtown location near Clayton Street, giving everyone plenty of time to load coolers and bags into the undercarriage storage compartments. Onboard, the group enjoyed the party bus's Bluetooth sound system and LED lighting while riding I-85 South to Buford. The driver dropped them off at the main entrance to Lanier Islands for easy access to the water park and beaches. After a full day, the driver returned at 6:00 pm sharp to bring everyone back to Athens comfortably. This Athens party bus rental cost $1,950.

Estimated Travel Time: ~1 hour, 15 minutes

Can I book a party bus for UGA game day transportation?

We pick up anywhere in Athens-Clarke County, including downtown, campus-area hotels, and private residences.

How long in advance should I book a party bus for a UGA game day?

For UGA game days, you should book your party bus as early as possible, ideally 3–6 months in advance.

Shuttlebus.net can often accommodate last-minute requests, but booking early ensures you get the best selection of vehicles and lock in your rate before demand spikes.

Each charter bus picked up employees at the office in Midtown Atlanta at 7:00 AM, drove up I-85 to GA-316, and arrived in Athens by 9:00 AM. The event ended at 4:00 PM each day, and the buses took everyone back to Atlanta. The company was quoted $6,500 for four charter buses for two days, which was less expensive than reimbursing employees for gas, tolls, and parking.

Estimated Travel Time: ~1 hour, 30 minutes

Atlanta to Mercedes-Benz Stadium

~72 Miles

When the University of Georgia Bulldogs made it to the SEC Championship, a group of 30 Athens alumni decided to go all out with a party bus rental to Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. They were staying at the Hyatt Place Athens Downtown and needed roundtrip transportation for the entire day, including a pre-game tailgate and post-game bar crawl in Midtown. Their reservation specialist quoted them a 36-passenger party bus with custom LED lighting, a Bluetooth sound system, and a built-in cooler for drinks. Since the trip would take around 1.5 hours each way and include multiple stops in Atlanta, they were quoted $2,800 for an 8-hour package.

Approximate travel time: 1.5 hours

Atlanta to State Botanical Garden of Georgia

~70 miles

A group of 40 UGA alumni in Atlanta book a 56-passenger charter bus for a Saturday wedding at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia in Athens. The group gets picked up at 8:00 AM in Buckhead to make the 70-mile drive to Athens in time for a 10:00 AM ceremony. After the reception, which ends at 4:00 PM, the bus takes everyone back to the original pickup location in Atlanta.
This trip falls under our full-day rate since the service spans more than five hours. The quote comes out to $2,050 for the charter bus, including driver and fuel. That comes out to just over $50 per person for the entire day, making it an affordable and stress-free option for getting a large group to and from Athens in one day.

Estimated Travel Time: ~1.5 hours each way

We regularly handle out-of-town and rural venue transfers for both local and destination wedding groups.

How do you handle guest transportation for a downtown Athens wedding with limited parking?

Shuttlebus.net solves downtown Athens wedding parking problems by running continuous shuttles between hotels and the venue. We’ll pick up guests at their hotels or a designated parking lot and drop them off curbside at your venue, whether that’s a Broad Street ballroom or a reception at The Foundry. After the reception, the driver will make sure everyone gets back comfortably to their hotel or car, so no one has to worry about finding a late-night spot or walking alone.

How do you handle transportation for a wedding with multiple venues, like a church ceremony and a separate reception hall?

Shuttlebus.net makes it easy to transport guests between multiple wedding venues, such as a church ceremony and a separate reception hall. We’ll coordinate a custom schedule that includes pickup times at the hotel or designated parking area, drop-off at the ceremony site, transfer to the reception venue, and return trips at the end of the night. This ensures everyone stays on schedule and no one gets lost between locations.
