Cambridge packs more moving parts into one square mile than most cities manage in ten — Harvard commencement crowds, MIT move-in weekends, Red Line backups, and game-day traffic funneling over the Longfellow Bridge all at once. Party Bus In Boston makes group travel across Cambridge and the wider metro easy. Call 857-317-8503 or grab an all-inclusive quote online in under 30 seconds.

Party Bus In Boston has coordinated group transportation across Greater Boston since 2011 — that's over a decade of routing around the Cambridge Street corridor, waiting at Logan pickup zones, and getting wedding guests from Kendall Square hotels to ceremony venues on the North Shore without a single car stuck on the Mass Pike. We offer all-inclusive pricing online in under 30 seconds. You know the exact number before you ever commit.
Our reservation team is available 24/7/365 for last-minute booking changes, itinerary questions, and anything that comes up the morning of your trip.
The fleet covers every group size: 14-passenger Sprinter limos for bridal party pickups, 15- to 50-passenger party buses for bachelorette nights through Inman Square and Central Square, 15- to 35-passenger minibuses for corporate shuttles between Kendall Square campuses and downtown Boston hotels, and 40- to 56-passenger charter buses for large-scale university events, convention center runs, and multi-stop brewery tours out toward the South Shore. We offer a massive variety of vehicles, meaning you never have to pay for seats you do not actually need. ADA-accessible options are always available — just let us know when you book.
From a sleek 14-passenger Sprinter limo for a graduation dinner at Harvest to a full 56-passenger charter bus for a Harvard Alumni weekend shuttling guests between Cambridge and the Seaport, we have the right vehicle ready. Browse the full fleet or call 857-317-8503 for an instant, no-obligation quote.
Party buses in the 15- to 50-passenger range come loaded with a full-length bar, color-changing LED lighting, a premium Bluetooth sound system, flat-panel TVs, and wraparound perimeter seating with an open center area — the right setup for a bachelorette crawl from Central Square to the Seaport. Minibuses bring powerful A/C and plush reclining seats, which makes the run from Kendall Square to TD Garden comfortable no matter how many times the Red Line is suspended for weekend track work. Full-size charter buses add undercarriage luggage bays, onboard restrooms, WiFi, and individual power outlets — everything a corporate group moving between Akamai's Cambridge campus and a Logan Terminal B departure needs to stay on top of things on the way out.

Cambridge party bus rental prices depend on vehicle size, date, and total hours — but you will never see a surprise charge. Our rates: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $204–$378/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $244–$414/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $294–$490/hour; and 40–56 passenger charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day.
Harvard and MIT commencement weekends in late May push demand sharply — the vehicle supply across the metro tightens fast and weekend rates run 20–30% above weekday equivalents. For those dates, booking 4–6 months out is not early, it is necessary. For most other Cambridge trips, 2–4 weeks of lead time keeps your options wide open.

Cambridge is one of the hardest cities in America to drive through on an event day — and that's before accounting for Harvard Square's one-way maze, the backed-up intersections at Mass Ave and Prospect Street, or the near-total absence of surface parking anywhere near Kendall Square. Party Bus In Boston has been navigating these exact corridors since 2011, coordinating thousands of group trips for university events, corporate shuttles, wedding weekends, and stadium runs.
When you book with us, you get all-inclusive pricing in under 30 seconds — no surprises, no add-ons you didn't ask for. Our 24/7 reservation team is one call away for every question from first quote to final drop-off. We match your headcount to the right vehicle size, so nobody pays for empty seats.
And because we know the MBTA's weekend shutdown patterns, the Logan ground transportation rules, and which garage on Binney Street actually fits a 56-passenger charter bus, we take care of the logistics before they become problems.
Plus, we offer a massive variety of vehicles — Sprinter limos, party buses in four size ranges, minibuses, and full-size charter buses — so whether you have 10 guests heading to a Red Sox game or 56 employees shuttling to an offsite in Providence, there is exactly one call to make. Call 857-317-8503 and we will have a quote ready before you hang up.
Party Bus In Boston coordinates group transportation for every kind of occasion across Cambridge and the full Greater Boston metro — from Logan airport transfers and Harvard commencement shuttles to bachelorette nights through the South End, prom runs out of Cambridge Rindge and Latin, and charter buses to Fenway Park. Whatever brings your group together, we have a vehicle and a plan ready. Call 857-317-8503 to get moving.
Logan International Airport (1 Harborside Dr, Boston, MA 02128) sits roughly 4 miles from Harvard Square — a route that crosses the Sumner or Callahan Tunnel and takes anywhere from 12 minutes at 6 a.m. to 55 minutes during the afternoon crunch on the I-93 interchange. For large groups, coordinating multiple rideshares across five different terminals is a headache before anyone even boards a plane.
Commercial bus pickup at Logan operates on the lower-level Arrivals roadway, terminal by terminal. Have your full group collect luggage and assemble at baggage claim, then your group coordinator contacts our team to confirm the bus moves to the correct Arrivals curb — Terminal A, B, C, or E. Do not call for the bus until everyone is standing together with bags. Logan's ground-level loading windows are tight, and a partial pickup means a second loop.
For cruise groups heading to the Black Falcon Cruise Terminal (1 Black Falcon Ave, Boston, MA 02210) after a flight, one bus handles the luggage mountain and the group in a single run — no juggling bags across the Silver Line. We recommend reviewing the official Logan ground transportation page before your arrival date. Call 857-317-8503 to book your Cambridge airport shuttle today.
The Boston metro's nightlife circuit — from Cambridge's own Central Square bars to the Seaport's rooftop scene — is exactly the kind of multi-stop evening that falls apart when half the group is waiting for a rideshare on MIT's loading dock while the other half is already ordering at the next bar. A Cambridge bachelorette party bus keeps the whole crew together, keeps the energy built, and keeps one person from drawing the short straw on who drives.
Start the evening at Shay's Pub & Wine Bar in Harvard Square, work over to the cocktail bars on Inman Square's Cambridge Street, cross into Somerville for a stop at Backbar (7 Sanborn Ct, Somerville, MA 02143), and land in the South End or the Seaport by midnight. Our 15- to 50-passenger party buses come with a full bar, LED color lighting, Bluetooth sound, and wraparound seating — the pregame happens on the ride, not at someone's apartment. No parking, no surge pricing, no one getting separated.
Call 857-317-8503 and we will build the route around your stops.
A birthday or quinceañera entrance in Cambridge is memorable when it arrives on a party bus — not a convoy of cars competing for the three open spots on Brattle Street. Party Bus In Boston coordinates birthday party bus rentals for every size celebration across the Cambridge metro, from intimate Sweet 16 dinners at Harvest (44 Brattle St, Cambridge, MA 02138) to large quinceañera receptions at ballrooms in East Cambridge or Somerville.
For milestone adult birthdays, the party bus tour of Cambridge and Boston writes itself: rooftop cocktails at Lookout Rooftop and Bar at the Envoy Hotel (70 Sleeper St, Boston, MA 02210), a stop at a comedy show, dinner in the North End, and a late-night return — all on one vehicle, one flat rate, zero logistics for the birthday person to manage. Pre-load the playlist, coordinate the color scheme, and we can match bus size to your exact headcount. Call 857-317-8503 to plan your Cambridge birthday celebration.
Cambridge and the surrounding Boston metro run one of the densest concert calendars in the Northeast, and venue parking is either nonexistent or a flat-rate cash grab. The House of Blues Boston (15 Lansdowne St, Boston, MA 02215) sits steps from Fenway with zero dedicated parking — street spots on Brookline Avenue fill before doors. MGM Music Hall at Fenway (2 Lansdowne St, Boston, MA 02215), which opened in 2023 with a 5,000-person capacity, has the same Kenmore Square parking problem: the MBTA Green Line handles the crowd, or you fight Fenway Park game-night overflow.
Leader Bank Pavilion (290 Northern Ave, Boston, MA 02210) sits on the South Boston waterfront, where summer traffic on Northern Avenue crawls to a stop by 6 p.m. on show nights.
A Cambridge concert bus rental drops your group at the venue entrance, then picks the crew up when the encore ends. No hunting for a Lyft in a crowd of 5,000, no surge pricing at midnight. For festival weekends like Boston Calling at Harvard Athletic Complex (65 N Harvard St, Allston, MA 02134), where three-day wristbands and scattered parking arrangements turn arrival into a logistical event of its own, one party bus keeps the whole crew together from the pregame to the after-party.
Call 857-317-8503 for a quote.
Cambridge's Kendall Square corridor — anchored by Biogen, Moderna, Akamai, HubSpot, and dozens of biotech and tech firms within a half-mile radius — generates a constant demand for sharp, reliable corporate shuttles. The problem is that Kendall Square has almost no surface parking, the MBTA Red Line runs at reduced capacity on weekends, and the walk from the nearest garage on Third Street to the conference room on Main Street is longer than it looks in January.
A Cambridge corporate bus rental picks up employees at hotel blocks in Downtown Boston, runs a continuous loop to the Kendall/MIT station area, and waits for post-event returns — no one scrambling for a car at 9 p.m. after a full day of sessions. For events at the MIT Samberg Conference Center (50 Memorial Dr, Cambridge, MA 02142) or the Marriott Cambridge (Two Cambridge Center, Cambridge, MA 02142), a minibus with WiFi and power outlets keeps the team productive on the ride in and ready to go the moment the bus stops. Executive Sprinter transfers work well for smaller VIP groups moving between Logan and a Kendall Square meeting.
Call 857-317-8503 to discuss corporate shuttle contracts and group rates.
Harvard's commencement in late May is Cambridge's single most disruptive transportation event of the year. Massachusetts Avenue shuts down for the Commencement Day procession, Cambridge Common fills with families, and parking in a two-mile radius of Harvard Yard disappears by 8 a.m. Rideshare pricing spikes sharply, and anyone trying to run a private alumni reception or family reunion dinner from a hotel in Cambridge to a venue in the Back Bay is looking at a 45-minute cab wait at noon.
A private charter bus rental in Cambridge solves it in one move: one vehicle, one departure time, your whole group on board while the road closures sort themselves out outside. The same logic applies to MIT's Tech Reunions weekend in June, the Cambridge Arts River Festival in May, and any private event that lands on a weekend when the entire city is already in motion. For family reunions hitting multiple spots — the Harvard Museum of Natural History, brunch in Porter Square, an afternoon on the Charles — one charter bus keeps the itinerary intact.
Call 857-317-8503 and we will build the plan.
Prom season in Cambridge and the surrounding communities — Cambridge Rindge and Latin School, Buckingham Browne & Nichols, Belmont Hill, and schools across Middlesex County — runs from late April through mid-May. Every school holds its prom within roughly the same 4-week window, and the metro's party bus inventory gets absorbed fast. Book by January or expect pricing 30–40% above early-season rates, or no availability at all.
A typical 6-hour Cambridge prom rental — school pickup, a photo stop at the Charles River Esplanade or Harvard Yard, venue drop-off at a hotel ballroom, and a post-prom return — runs $1,800–$2,200 when booked 4–6 months ahead. The same trip booked two weeks before prom night runs $2,800–$3,500 or more, if a vehicle is still available. Party Bus In Boston works with parent committees and student groups across Middlesex County to coordinate prom transportation that stays within budget without cutting corners.
Call 857-317-8503 today to lock in your date.
Cambridge and Somerville schools run field trips to some of the most genuinely world-class institutions in walking distance — but walking distance and parking are two entirely different problems when you have 50 students, three chaperones, and a 9 a.m. timed-entry ticket. The Harvard Museum of Natural History (26 Oxford St, Cambridge, MA 02138) has extremely limited bus staging on Oxford Street, so coordinating drop-off in advance with the museum's group coordinator is essential. The MIT Museum at the new Kendall Square location (314 Main St, Cambridge, MA 02142) has even tighter curb access — a minibus gets in and out cleanly where a full charter bus requires rerouting.
For longer trips out of the city — the New England Aquarium (1 Central Wharf, Boston, MA 02110), the Museum of Science (1 Science Park, Boston, MA 02114), or day trips to Plimoth Patuxent — a 56-passenger charter bus with undercarriage storage means lunch coolers, backpacks, and art supplies all travel in the bays rather than on laps. ADA-accessible vehicles are always available with advance notice. Party Bus In Boston makes it easy to confirm the right bus size and the pickup plan, so teachers spend the ride reviewing the itinerary instead of counting heads in a parking lot.
Call 857-317-8503 for Cambridge school field trip transportation.
Red Sox games at Fenway Park (4 Jersey St, Boston, MA 02215) draw 37,000 fans into Kenmore Square from every corner of the metro, and the Green Line hits capacity well before first pitch. The parking situation around Fenway — $40–$60 lots that fill by 4 p.m. for a 7 p.m. game — makes driving a punishment most fans would rather skip. A Cambridge charter bus rental picks your group up at one address, drops everyone at the Yawkey Way entrance, and waits for the post-game return so no one is standing on Brookline Avenue at 10:30 p.m. trying to wave down a Lyft.
Celtics and Bruins games at TD Garden (100 Legends Way, Boston, MA 02114) present a different bottleneck: the North Station area floods with commuters and fans simultaneously, and the parking garages on Causeway Street charge $50 or more on game nights. A Cambridge party bus rental keeps your crew together from the tip-off toast on the ride over to the post-game recap on the way back. New England Patriots games at Gillette Stadium (1 Patriot Pl, Foxborough, MA 02035) sit 28 miles from Cambridge — far enough down I-95 that a full charter bus genuinely beats a six-car caravan on the price-per-head math.
Call 857-317-8503 to lock in your game-day bus.
A Cambridge wedding weekend moves across neighborhoods — rehearsal dinner in Harvard Square on Friday, ceremony at a venue in the South End or Brookline on Saturday, brunch in Somerville Sunday morning — and out-of-town guests arriving at Logan need a clear, coordinated plan to get from Terminal B to their hotel without splitting into six separate rideshares. A Cambridge wedding shuttle bus covers every leg of that itinerary under one booking.
If your reception is at the Charles Hotel (1 Bennett St, Cambridge, MA 02138) or the Marriott Cambridge, a minibus loop from a hotel block in Downtown Boston keeps your guests from navigating the one-way streets around Harvard Square in formal wear. Nobody in the bridal party needs to know that JFK Street and Brattle Street become completely impassable after 6 p.m. on a Saturday — that is taken care of. A 14-passenger Sprinter limo works perfectly for the bridal party itself on the day, with premium leather and tinted privacy windows.
Because Party Bus In Boston has been coordinating group transportation since 2011, your wedding timeline stays tight with clear departure windows and a single point of contact from first quote to last drop-off. Call 857-317-8503 for a free wedding transportation quote.
Cambridge and the surrounding communities have built a genuinely excellent craft beer and winery scene — and the best way to cover multiple stops without anyone drawing the short straw on designated driving is a party bus that handles the route while your group handles the tasting notes. Start at Lamplighter Brewing Co. (284 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139), which operates one of the largest taprooms in Cambridge with rotating hazy IPAs and a popular food program. Move over to Remnant Brewing (148 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA 02143) in Union Square for farmhouse ales in a former industrial space, then cross toward Night Shift Brewing (87 Santilli Hwy, Everett, MA 02149) for one of the metro's most expansive tap lists.
For groups wanting something closer to a winery experience, Trillium Brewing Company's Fort Point location (369 Congress St, Boston, MA 02210) pairs a full pour list with a rooftop — and the South Boston waterfront is a natural starting point before looping back through the Seaport. Your Cambridge pub crawl bus rental keeps everyone on one vehicle, waits while the group is inside each stop, and gets everyone home safely when the last round is done. No one splits off into a cab early, no one gets stranded.

We threw a last-minute birthday together and grabbed a bus the same week. Pickup in Harvard Square was right on time, the sound system was loud enough for everyone, and we just bounced between bars in Central Square without anyone worrying about parking or the ride home. Booking took about ten minutes online. Already planning the next one.

Used this for a group outing and everything was smooth from the first call to the drop-off. The bus was comfortable and the atmosphere inside got everyone in a great mood. Pickup was right on time and the price was exactly what they quoted. No complaints at all, just a fun easy experience.
Imelda C.
What a fun way to get a big group around together. The bus was spacious, the lights were a vibe, and the music kept the energy up all night. Reserving it ahead was simple and they confirmed everything quickly. Made our evening so much more special than just driving ourselves around.
Roderick P.
I was hesitant to spend on a party bus but I'm so glad we did. It turned an ordinary night into an event. The seats were comfortable, the sound was great, and getting around Cambridge without parking hassles was a relief. Booking was easy and the team was friendly. Highly recommend.
Cambridge party bus rental prices vary based on vehicle size, the date, and how long you need the bus. Our pricing: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $204–$378/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $244–$414/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $294–$490/hour; and 40–56 passenger charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day. Harvard and MIT commencement weekends in late May drive demand sharply — book those dates as early as December to lock in baseline rates.

Logan International Airport routes commercial bus pickups to the lower-level Arrivals roadway at each terminal — Terminal A, B, C, or E. Have your entire group collect luggage and assemble at baggage claim before your group coordinator contacts our team to confirm the bus moves to the correct Arrivals curb for your terminal. Logan's commercial loading windows are limited, so a partial group pickup means a second pass. International arrivals at Terminal E may need up to two hours to clear U.S. Customs before the group is ready to assemble.
Do not call for the bus until everyone is together with bags. We recommend reviewing the official Logan ground transportation page before you land. If you have questions on arrival, the Ground Transportation booth on the Arrivals level can assist.
Charter buses heading to Fenway Park (4 Jersey St, Boston, MA 02215) typically drop passengers at the Yawkey Way entrance on Jersey Street and then move to metered or reserved commercial parking in the Kenmore Square area — Newbury Street, Boylston Street, and the Landmark Center garage on Brookline Avenue are common waiting spots. Fenway does not have a dedicated on-site charter bus lot. On-site parking in the Fenway lots runs $40–$60 on game days and sells out hours before first pitch — a bus delivering your group to the gate sidesteps the lot entirely.
For post-game pickup, agree on a specific meeting point and window before the group goes in: the Yawkey Way and Van Ness Street side of the park clears faster than the Lansdowne Street end. We recommend checking the official Fenway Park directions page before game day for any event-specific closures.
Charter buses are not permitted to park inside Harvard Yard itself — the gates are sized for pedestrian and bicycle access, not oversized vehicles. For events at Harvard, commercial buses drop passengers at designated curb zones on Massachusetts Avenue or Cambridge Street adjacent to the Yard's perimeter gates and then move to waiting spots in the surrounding streets or the Cambridge Street corridor. During Commencement in late May, Cambridge police enforce strict road closure patterns around the Yard beginning early morning, and Mass Ave between Quincy Street and Brattle Street may be closed to through traffic for portions of the day.
Contact Harvard's Transportation Services office in advance to confirm the current drop-off and waiting plan for your specific event date — the rules tighten significantly for Commencement versus a regular academic-year visit.
Yes, with advance planning. MIT's main campus area around Massachusetts Avenue and Main Street has limited curb access for oversized vehicles. Most charter buses drop groups at the designated loading zones on Main Street near the Kendall/MIT Red Line station or along Vassar Street on the west side of campus, then wait in the commercial areas near Third Street or on Binney Street in the adjacent Cambridge Innovation Center corridor.
For events at the MIT Samberg Conference Center (50 Memorial Dr, Cambridge, MA 02142) on the Charles River edge of campus, the drop-off on Memorial Drive is more direct. Parking for large vehicles in Kendall Square is genuinely limited — one charter bus replacing multiple cars is both a practical and cost advantage in this area. MIT's Parking and Transportation office can confirm waiting zones for your specific event.
For most Cambridge trips — a night out, a sporting event, a school field trip — 2–4 weeks of lead time keeps your vehicle options fully open. For peak demand dates, the calendar is tighter: Harvard and MIT commencement weekends in late May require 4–6 months advance booking, and vehicles go fast once dates are announced. Prom season (late April through mid-May) is the metro's busiest window for party bus rentals — book by January to avoid premium pricing or no availability at all.
Red Sox Opening Day, New Year's Eve, and Boston Marathon weekend (third Monday in April) all spike demand and compress supply across Greater Boston. For any date where Cambridge is hosting a major university event, book the moment your headcount is confirmed. Call 857-317-8503 right now to check availability for your date.
Cambridge sits at the center of one of the most destination-dense metro areas in the country — world-class museums, iconic ballparks, a nationally recognized arts district, and a harbor waterfront all within 20 minutes of Harvard Square. Here are six destinations your party bus group should know about.
Harvard University's historic campus (Massachusetts Hall, Cambridge, MA 02138) draws millions of visitors annually — from admitted students on campus tours to alumni returning for Reunions Week and families descending for the Commencement procession across Harvard Yard in late May. The campus sits in the heart of Cambridge, with Massachusetts Avenue as the main approach from both the north and south. Commercial vehicles drop at the Holyoke Center (1350 Massachusetts Ave) side of the Yard or at the Cambridge Street end depending on the event.
During Commencement, Mass Ave closes for the academic procession, and road closures extend to Quincy Street and Brattle Street by mid-morning. Parking is essentially nonexistent within half a mile. One charter bus replacing a dozen cars is, logistically, the only way a large group arrives together and on time.
We recommend contacting Harvard Transportation Services before any major event to confirm the current drop-off zones.
Address: Massachusetts Hall, Cambridge, MA 02138
Phone: 617-495-1000
MIT's main campus (77 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139) stretches from the Charles River waterfront to the innovation corridor in Kendall Square, one of the most concentrated biotech and tech hubs in the world. The campus includes the MIT Museum (314 Main St), the Kresge Auditorium for events, the MIT Samberg Conference Center on Memorial Drive, and the sprawling Building 10 dome that anchors the Massachusetts Avenue approach. Kendall/MIT is a Red Line stop, but the line runs at reduced frequency on weekends and is routinely suspended for track maintenance.
For corporate groups, conference groups, or visiting delegations moving between MIT and Downtown Boston or Logan Airport, a minibus is the clean answer — one vehicle, no transfers, and the undercarriage handles the presentation gear. The MIT Sailing Pavilion on Memorial Drive is a popular departure point for riverside photos before events. Charter bus waiting spots typically use Vassar Street or the Main Street loading zones.

Harvard Square (Cambridge, MA 02138) is one of the most visited pedestrian districts in New England — a one-mile radius that holds the Harvard Book Store, the Brattle Theatre, Harvest Restaurant, Shay's Pub & Wine Bar, and dozens of independent shops and cafes that have made this corner of Cambridge a destination since the 1970s. On weekends, the square fills with street musicians, farmers market crowds from the Cambridge Common, and students from both Harvard and MIT. Parking in Harvard Square is metered and extremely limited; the MBTA Red Line drops at the Harvard station, but a group of 20 cannot coordinate a rideshare exit from the square after 10 p.m. without waiting 20–30 minutes for surge-priced cars.
A party bus waiting on Brattle Street or JFK Street lets the group stay as long as the evening calls for, then leaves together. For bachelorette tours and birthday pub crawls, Harvard Square is a natural first stop before the night heads toward Inman Square or the Seaport.
Address: Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA 02138
Home to both the Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins since 1995, TD Garden (100 Legends Way, Boston, MA 02114) holds 19,156 for basketball and 17,565 for hockey — and on game nights and major concerts, North Station turns into one of the most congested intersections in Boston. The Causeway Street parking garages charge $50 or more for event parking, and the MBTA Orange and Green Lines both terminate at North Station but hit capacity fast. Commercial bus drop-off at TD Garden is curbside on Causeway Street near the main entrance.
Buses then wait along Canal Street or the North Washington Street bridge approach while the event runs. A Cambridge charter bus picks your group up, delivers everyone to the Causeway Street entrance, and waits for a coordinated post-game pickup — so no one is searching for a Lyft at 11 p.m. on Canal Street while Causeway Street slowly empties. We recommend checking the official TD Garden directions page for event-specific drop-off guidance.

Fenway Park (4 Jersey St, Boston, MA 02215) is America's oldest Major League Baseball park, opened in 1912 and holding 37,755 fans for a Red Sox game. The Kenmore Square neighborhood surrounding the park is among the most compressed event-day environments in the country — Brookline Avenue, Yawkey Way, and Lansdowne Street all converge within a block of the outfield, and parking within a reasonable walk runs $40–$60 on a Saturday night. The Green Line B, C, and D branches all serve Kenmore station, but the inbound platform backs up to street level in the 90 minutes before first pitch.
A Cambridge party bus drops your group on Jersey Street at the main entrance, then waits in Kenmore Square or along Boylston Street for the post-game return. The undercarriage bays hold the cooler and the tailgate gear. For a group of 20 or more, the flat rental rate beats the per-car parking math.
Check the Red Sox Directions & Parking page for the current lot map before game day.

The Museum of Science (1 Science Park, Boston, MA 02114) spans the Charles River Dam between Cambridge and Boston, making it one of the few institutions genuinely accessible from both cities — but bus access from the Cambridge side requires navigating the O'Brien Highway rotary, and from the Boston side the Storrow Drive exits are famously hostile to vehicles taller than 10 feet. The museum's designated bus drop-off is off First Street on the Boston side, and group buses should never attempt the Storrow Drive approach. The museum holds over 700 exhibits, the Charles Hayden Planetarium, the Mugar Omni Theater, and a Lightning! demonstration stage — a full school-group visit runs 4–6 hours.
School groups that store lunch in the charter bus's undercarriage bays can use the museum's outdoor picnic areas between programs without lugging coolers through the galleries. Pre-booked group admission and timed-entry tickets are essential, especially for the Omni Theater. Check the Museum of Science visitor page for current group rates and bus drop-off guidance.
