It's RARE for a client’s afterthought to become the highlight of the night.
When we started Rare it was a handful of staff and one bus. Just a short time later we were ten times that and still growing to meet demand all the time. Our mission is simple: Provide turnkey solutions for safe, reliable and comfortable transportation through itinerary and logistical planning and five-star customer service. We do this by working closely with each client on itinerary planning and logistics and always ensuring that we provide the right amount of buses for the amount of ridership.
We pride ourselves on being more than just another transportation service. Rare believes the journey is just as important as the destination, and will help to make sure your ride is just that. Our packages are each individually tailored to our clients’ needs and wants. We'll work with you from start to finish to make sure you get where you're going and feel great doing so.
What does it mean to experience event transportation that is rare?
