A Group Travel Guide to Rome, Georgia's Best Destinations

Berry College Campus

You simply cannot visit Rome with a group without seeing the world’s largest contiguous college campus. Berry College spans a staggering 27,000 acres of woodlands, meadows, and streams. Because of its sheer size, touring Berry College is almost impossible on foot for a large group—making a private charter bus rental the absolute best way to experience it. Your bus driver can navigate the scenic main entrance roads (often called the "Gate of Opportunity") while your group marvels at the architecture that was famously featured in movies like Remember the Titans and Sweet Home Alabama.

A charter bus allows your group to easily transition between the Ford Complex—with its stunning Gothic architecture and reflecting pools—and the mountain campus to see the Old Mill and the House o' Dreams. If you are organizing a prospective student tour, an alumni reunion, or a photography club outing, having a bus means you can cover miles of scenic beauty without breaking a sweat. We can arrange drop-offs right at the Krannert Center or near the college chapel, ensuring your group stays together. Plus, with the ample storage bays under our full-size coaches, you can bring along picnic supplies to enjoy near the reservoir.

Historic Downtown Rome & Broad Street

Downtown Rome is the heartbeat of the city, located uniquely "Between the Rivers" (the Etowah and the Oostanaula). Broad Street is the second widest main street in Georgia, lined with Victorian-era architecture, local boutiques, and fantastic local dining. However, parking multiple cars during peak hours or festival weekends can be a challenge. With a Charter Bus Rental Company Rome shuttle, your driver can drop your group off right near the City Clock tower or the Town Green so you can explore the shops and restaurants on foot.

Downtown is perfect for corporate groups looking for a lunch break or wedding parties needing a fun spot for a rehearsal dinner. Your group can visit the famous Capitoline Wolf statue (a gift from Rome, Italy) or walk across the pedestrian bridge. After a few hours of shopping and dining at local staples like Harvest Moon or Swift & Finch, your charter bus will be waiting at a designated pickup point to whisk you away to your hotel or next attraction. No feeding parking meters, no walking blocks in the heat—just seamless, air-conditioned transport.

Oak Hill & The Martha Berry Museum

For groups interested in history and Southern heritage, a visit to Oak Hill is mandatory. This Greek Revival estate was the home of Martha Berry, the founder of Berry College. The site includes the historic home, the museum, and beautiful gardens that are perfect for a spring or autumn group tour. This is a favorite destination for senior citizen travel groups and educational field trips.

When you rent a charter bus for a trip to Oak Hill, you eliminate the stress of organizing a caravan. The museum offers designated parking for motorcoaches, making accessibility a breeze. Your group can tour the Aunt Martha’s Walk, explore the vintage vehicles in the Carriage House, and learn about the incredible life of one of Georgia's most influential women. The climate-controlled comfort of a charter bus is particularly appreciated by senior groups after a walking tour of the gardens.

Rome Emperors at AdventHealth Stadium

Nothing brings a group together like a night at the ballpark! Rome is home to the Rome Emperors (formerly the Rome Braves), the High-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves. AdventHealth Stadium is a fantastic venue for church youth groups, corporate team-building outings, and family reunions. But let’s be honest—game day traffic and parking can be a hassle, and splitting up your group into ten different cars takes the fun out of the pre-game excitement.

Book a private bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Rome for your next Emperors game. We can transport your entire roster of fans from your meeting point directly to the stadium entrance. If you want to tailgate beforehand, our buses have plenty of undercarriage storage for coolers, folding chairs, and banners. Best of all, having a driver means your group can enjoy a few cold beverages at the game without worrying about designating a driver for the ride home. We handle the logistics; you handle the cheering.

Myrtle Hill Cemetery

It might seem unusual to include a cemetery on a travel guide, but Myrtle Hill is no ordinary graveyard. It is one of the most historic and scenic locations in Rome, offering panoramic views of the city and the confluence of the rivers. It is the final resting place of Ellen Axson Wilson (the first wife of President Woodrow Wilson) and features the Veterans Plaza. Because Myrtle Hill is, quite literally, a steep hill with narrow, winding roads, it is best navigated by built-in designated drivers.

For history buffs or genealogy groups, Charter Bus Rental Company Rome offers the most convenient way to visit. The drivers can navigate the terrain of North Georgia. We can drop your group at the bottom for a walking tour or coordinate carefully at the top near the Veterans Plaza. It is a solemn, beautiful, and educational stop that tells the story of Rome’s past, from the Civil War to the modern era.

Rome Area History Center

Located right on Broad Street, the Rome Area History Center is a treasure trove of local lore. If you are planning a school field trip in Floyd County, this is an essential stop. The exhibits cover everything from the Native American history of the region to the Civil War and the industrial boom. However, because it is located in the heart of downtown, parking a yellow school bus or several chaperone vehicles can be difficult.

When you book a school trip bus rental with us, we streamline the process. We can drop your class off right at the front door for their educational tour and then park the bus at a nearby staging area until you are ready to be picked up. Our buses come equipped with PA systems so teachers can do headcounts easily, and DVD players to show educational documentaries on the ride over. It’s a smarter and more comfortable alternative to the traditional school bus.

Rocky Mountain Recreation Public Fishing Area

Just a short drive from the city center lies a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. If your group loves fishing, hiking, or just enjoying a picnic by the lake, the Rocky Mountain Recreation Public Fishing Area is a hidden gem. It features two lakes and endless opportunities for outdoor recreation. This is a popular destination for scout troops, summer camps, and church retreats.

The beauty of renting a charter bus for an outdoor excursion is the storage capacity. You don't need to jam fishing poles, tackle boxes, coolers, and hiking gear into the trunk of a sedan. Our full-size charter buses feature massive undercarriage luggage bays that can hold all your outdoor gear with room to spare. After a long day in the Georgia sun, your group will be relieved to step into a cool, air-conditioned bus with plush reclining seats for the ride back to Rome.

Chieftains Museum / Major Ridge Home

To truly understand the history of Rome, you must understand the history of the Cherokee people who lived here. The Chieftains Museum, located in the historic home of Major Ridge, is a National Historic Landmark that tells the story of the Cherokee Nation and the Trail of Tears. It is a profound educational experience for student groups and history tour groups.

Charter Bus Rental Company Rome makes visiting this important site easy. We provide reliable transportation for educational groups traveling from Atlanta, Chattanooga , or Birmingham. We can coordinate with the museum staff to ensure a smooth arrival and departure. On the way there, utilize the onboard WiFi to let students research the history of Major Ridge so they are prepared for what they will see. It turns travel time into learning time.
