Dunwoody Nature Center

Escape the hustle and bustle of the Perimeter business district and immerse your group in the tranquility of the Dunwoody Nature Center. Located in the heart of Dunwoody Park, this 22-acre microbial sanctuary is a perfect destination for educational field trips, corporate wellness retreats, and family gatherings.

For groups traveling by charter bus, the Nature Center is an ideal stop. We can drop your group off right at the entrance, allowing you to head straight for the shaded playground or the famous "Piano in the Park" for a photo op. If you are organizing a corporate picnic or a team-building event, the center offers facility rentals, and your bus provides ample undercarriage storage for coolers, games, and presentation materials. Instead of worrying about limited parking spots in the lot, your driver can drop you off and return for pickup when your nature excursion concludes.

For shopaholics and fashion enthusiasts, no trip to Dunwoody is complete without a visit to Perimeter Mall. As the second-largest shopping mall in the Southeast, it is a premier destination featuring over 150 retailers, ranging from high-end luxury brands to popular department stores like Macy's and Von Maur.

It is also the site of the iconic "Everything Will Be OK" mural, a Dunwoody landmark that makes for a perfect group photo opportunity. The Education Center nearby offers workshops and classes that can be booked for private group sessions.

Parking at the historic gallery is limited, which makes a minibus rental the perfect solution.

This aerial adventure park features ziplines and obstacle courses suspended high in the trees, offering challenges for various skill levels. It is a fantastic destination for corporate team-building events, scout troops, and birthday parties looking for something different. Moving from tree to tree requires focus and energy, and your group will likely be exhausted after a few hours on the course.

With a private bus rental from Charter Bus Dunwoody, your group can collapse into plush, reclining seats and enjoy the ride home.

For wedding planners and history tour operators, transportation to the Farm needs to be seamless.

The parking area at the farm is modest, so shuttling guests via a minibus prevents congestion and ensures that elderly relatives or guests in formal wear are dropped off right at the entrance. Let us handle the logistics while you enjoy the historic charm.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dunwoody Group Travel Transportation

The cost of a charter bus rental depends on several factors, including the size of the bus, the duration of your trip, the time of year, and the distance traveled. Local trips around Dunwoody are billed by the hour with a minimum rental period, while long-distance trips are billed by the day or mile. Because every trip is unique, we recommend calling our reservation team at 404-551-5441. We can provide you with a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your specific itinerary in just minutes.

Parking a large motorcoach can be tricky in suburban areas. Your driver will drop your group off at the front entrance of your destination (like Perimeter Mall or the Spruill Gallery) and then move the bus to a designated staging area or a large, empty lot nearby. If you are visiting a venue with limited parking, such as the Donaldson-Bannister Farm, we will work with you to determine the best off-site parking strategy. Your driver stays with the bus to ensure it is secure and ready for your pickup.

To ensure the best availability and pricing, we recommend booking your charter bus as soon as your date and itinerary are finalized. For trips during peak seasons—such as spring (prom and wedding season) and holidays—we suggest booking at least 3 to 6 months in advance. However, Charter Bus Dunwoody is often able to accommodate last-minute requests, so don’t hesitate to call us even if your trip is just around the corner!
