Busrentalroanoke.com is not a bus company and doesn't own any vehicles, which means you're never stuck with whatever one operator happens to have parked in its lot on your date. Because the network includes a wide range of vehicle types and sizes, you can compare a compact 15-passenger minibus for a small group hitting Valhalla Vineyards (6500 Mount Chestnut Rd, Roanoke, VA 24018) against a full-size charter bus for a larger group touring Smith Mountain Lake wineries — all with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account required.

Compare Vehicles and Online Rates for Wine Tour & Brewery Transportation in Seconds
The Blue Ridge wine country around Roanoke comes in every shape and size — a quick two-winery afternoon at Peaks of Otter Winery (2122 Sheep Creek Rd, Bedford, VA 24523) looks nothing like a full-day group excursion winding down US-221 South to Floyd. That's exactly why having more than one bus type to choose from matters so much. Through Busrentalroanoke.com, you can compare 15- to 35-passenger minibuses, 15- to 50-passenger party buses with built-in bars and LED lighting, sprinter vans for intimate groups, and full-size 56-passenger charter buses for larger gatherings — all from a network of bus companies serving Roanoke.
One quick form puts every option in front of you with transparent pricing, so you can pick the bus that actually fits your group, your itinerary, and your budget!

Minibuses Are the Smart Pick for Blue Ridge Parkway Winery Routes
For quick and easy access to the Floyd-area wineries — Château Morrisette (287 Winery Rd SW, Floyd, VA 24091) and Villa Appalaccia Winery (752 Rock Castle Gorge, Floyd, VA 24091) — the Blue Ridge Parkway is the most scenic route from Roanoke, but it comes with a real catch. The National Park Service manages the Parkway, and several tunnels along the route carry clearances as low as 13'0" — including the Smart View Tunnel near milepost 154 and the Rough Ridge Tunnel at milepost 168.7. Full-size motorcoaches can run 12'6" to 13'6" tall and may not clear every tunnel safely.
A 15- to 35-passenger minibus, which typically stands 9'6" to 11'6", is the right call for Parkway winery routes — nimble enough for the two-lane road and well under the tunnel clearances. Busrentalroanoke.com makes it easy to compare minibuses from a network of bus companies serving Roanoke, so you find the right vehicle for your exact route!
Party Buses Keep the Celebration Rolling Between Roanoke Wineries
Fill out one form and you'll see why a party bus is one of the most popular picks for Roanoke wine tours! Whether your group is toasting at Valhalla Vineyards, swirling glasses at Davis Valley Winery (2571 Davis Valley Rd NW, Glenvar, VA 24018), or finishing the evening with a craft pour at Big Lick Brewing Company (409 Salem Ave SW, Roanoke, VA 24016), a party bus keeps the energy going between every stop. The 15- to 50-passenger models available through the network come loaded with a full-length bar, color-changing LED lighting, Bluetooth sound, and wraparound perimeter seating — so the tasting notes keep flowing long before the first winery pour.

Charter Buses for Large Groups Touring Smith Mountain Lake Wineries
Ready to move a large group southeast toward the Smith Mountain Lake wine cluster? A full-size charter bus handles the roughly 35-mile run down US-220 South and VA-122 to wineries like Hickory Hill Vineyards (1722 Hickory Cove Ln, Moneta, VA 24121) and Ramulose Ridge Vineyards (1700 Sheep Creek Rd, Goodview, VA 24095) with room for up to 56 passengers, reclining seats, climate control, overhead storage, and undercarriage luggage bays for any gear your group is bringing along. US-220 South can slow on summer weekends, and the lake-area roads are narrow in spots — one bus means one vehicle to manage, one parking spot to find, and no group scattered across a caravan of cars.

Sprinter Vans and Minibuses for Intimate Roanoke Wine Experiences
Just a small group heading out for the afternoon? A sprinter van or 15-passenger minibus is the perfect fit for an intimate wine tour stopping at AmRhein Wine Cellars (9243 Patterson Dr, Bent Mountain, VA 24059) on Bent Mountain — about 20 miles southwest of downtown Roanoke — or winding out to Beliveau Estate Winery (1525 Antelope Hills Dr, Blacksburg, VA 24060) near Blacksburg. These smaller vehicles are compact enough to handle the winding mountain roads and private estate driveways that larger buses can't navigate comfortably, and they keep your group together without paying for seats you don't need.

Busrentalroanoke.com Connects You to Wine Tour Buses for Every Season in Roanoke
Busrentalroanoke.com connects you to wine tour transportation for every season the Blue Ridge wine country has to offer — and Roanoke's wine calendar fills up faster than most groups expect. October is Virginia Wine Month, and harvest season from September through October is the single busiest stretch of the year for winery tours across the region. The Blue Ridge Parkway is busiest on weekends and holidays in June, July, August, and October, so your bus should build extra time into any Parkway winery route during those windows.
Château Morrisette hosts its popular summer music festivals and a beloved Christmas at the Winery event in November and December, both of which draw large groups from across Southwest Virginia. Spring weekends in May and June book quickly too. Whatever season your group is planning around, the earlier you compare buses through Busrentalroanoke.com, the more vehicle options and better pricing you'll find — book three to six months out for fall harvest weekends.

Commercial vehicles are generally permitted on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but the Bluff Mountain Tunnel near milepost 53.1 has a clearance of 13'1". Full-size motorcoaches can stand 12'6" to 13'6" tall and may not clear every tunnel. A 15- to 35-passenger minibus, typically 9'6" to 11'6" tall, is the safer and more practical choice for Parkway winery routes.
The alternative US-221 South route to Floyd bypasses Parkway tunnels entirely and works for any vehicle size. Mention your planned route when you request your quote so the right vehicle type is matched to your itinerary.
Valhalla Vineyards is right inside Roanoke city limits — about 15 minutes from downtown on the slopes of Roanoke Mountain. AmRhein Wine Cellars on Bent Mountain is roughly 20 miles southwest, and Davis Valley Winery in Glenvar is about 10 miles northwest. Peaks of Otter Winery near Bedford is about 25 miles east via US-460.
Château Morrisette in Floyd is roughly 40 miles south. Smith Mountain Lake wineries like Hickory Hill Vineyards run about 35 miles southeast via US-220 South and VA-122.
Book three to six months out for fall harvest weekends — September and October are the busiest months of the year for Virginia wine tours, and October is officially Virginia Wine Month statewide. Summer weekends in June, July, and August fill quickly too, especially for Château Morrisette's music festivals. Spring weekends in May book out faster than most groups expect.
Waiting until the last minute on any of those dates means higher prices and fewer vehicle options. The online quote tool shows availability for your exact date in under 30 seconds — the sooner you compare, the more you save.
It depends on your headcount and your route. A sprinter van fits 10–14 passengers and handles narrow estate driveways and mountain roads well. A 15- to 35-passenger minibus is the most popular pick for Roanoke wine tours — compact enough for the Blue Ridge Parkway and winding country roads, with room for a comfortable group.
A party bus (15–50 passengers) is great when the celebration is part of the plan. A full-size 56-passenger charter bus works well for larger groups on highway routes like the Smith Mountain Lake run. Compare all of these in one place through Busrentalroanoke.com's online quote tool!
Yes — multi-stop itineraries are one of the most common wine tour setups booked through the network. You can plan a route that hits two, three, or more wineries in a single day, and the bus waits while your group tastes at each stop. When you fill out the quote form, list your planned stops and the approximate time you'd like to spend at each one so the pricing reflects your full itinerary.
If you're mixing wineries with a craft brewery stop back in Roanoke — like Big Lick Brewing Company on Salem Avenue — mention that too. Call 540-240-9015 and a live agent can help you build a custom multi-stop package!
