Black Onyx Party Bus Reviews
- Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
Rent My Party Bus always the way to go! Been using the Black Onyx for 4+ years. They have kept this bus in top notch order - all lights, seats, and condition of the bus is like-new everytime. The driver Antonio is by far our favorite driver! He made our entire group feel comfortable and sets the vibe right off the start with his opening announcements! Will for sure rent again!

I've rented from this company twice and both times have been amazing. The drivers have been fun and made a great experience. Shout out to Rachel and the black onyx! Thanks for a great night!

Can we make multiple stops?
Yes, you can make as many stops as you like as long as it’s within your time frame.
How long should we book The Black Onyx Party Bus for?
Most groups book 3–5 hours for dinner + bars, or 6+ hours for a full night out.
What if we run late at pickup?
We recommend having your group ready early. Late starts may reduce drive time and stops, depending on the schedule.
Can we add overtime during the trip?
Usually yes if the bus is available.
Can we decorate the bus?
Light, removable decorations are usually fine (think balloons, banners, table décor). No confetti, glitter, silly string, or anything permanent.
Do you allow food on the bus?
Small snacks are usually okay. If you want to bring a full meal/catering, ask us first so we can plan for cleanup.
Is there a cleaning fee?
A standard cleaning policy applies. Excessive mess may result in an additional cleaning charge. Keep it simple and you’re good.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancellation terms depend on how close you are to the reservation date. The cancellation policy is listed in our Terms & Conditions.
Does the Black Onyx run in winter?
Yes, the Black Onyx runs year-round and is fully heated, so it stays warm through a Minnesota January. Winter dates are popular for holiday light tours and birthdays, and if a snowstorm ever makes travel unsafe, we’ll work with you to reschedule.
