    Great wedding transportation service!

    Recently used Jump on the School Bus for transportation for our wedding in May and they were amazing! Very friendly and responsive team that helped us plan perfect transportation to our venue that required outside transportation due to limited parking. We love that we were able to personalize the busses and provide our guests with refreshments while on board. They communicated well throughout the process and were very timely. Highly recommend!

    Lifesaver when parking was scarce

    Jump on the School Bus was a lifesaver for me when it came to hiring transportation for my wedding. Our guests were scattered all over Santa Barbara and parking around our venue was limited. Rather than relying on a fleet of ride share cars, we wanted to make things easy for our guests and give them a fun option that would still drop them right at the venue, and JOTSB came through in spades.

    Because of how far apart people were and how many different places they were staying, it was not easy to figure out a route that accommodated everyone, but Lindsay was extremely patient with us and created a route that managed to both pick up everyone and get them there on time. And our driver Roberto executed it perfectly, while also making sure everybody had a great time.

    If you need transportation for any kind of event, I would definitely recommend picking JOTSB to make it happen.

    Callejas Wedding 3/24/24

    Jump on the School Bus did the transportation for our wedding and they did such a good job. My husband and I met in college driving the university student shuttles so it was super awesome to have a bus transport us from the hotel to the venue and after party. It was like a full circle moment! Bryce was our driver and he quite literally was the best driver ever and everyone on the bus had such a fun time! We were able to play our music and there were lights in the bus so it felt like an actual party bus. I would highly recommend them for any of your transportation needs especially since people were drinking at our wedding and it made me feel much more comfortable knowing everyone was being driven and not have to worry about people being unsafe.

    Awesome Bus and Experience

    We are so thankful for Jump On The School Bus and our awesome driver Ron! We originally booked shuttle services through another vendor that flaked and we were so lucky and happy that it turned out the way it did because the bus was one of our guests favorite parts of our wedding. From the music to the waters on the bus to the fact that Ron and team are incredibly communicative, they made the whole experience wonderful. The letters on the side of the bus were so cute and incredibly helpful as we learned there were 2 other weddings that day leaving from our hotel but our guests had no issues knowing which bus to hop on. I highly recommend you book with Jump On The School Bus for your wedding or other events.

    Fun festive wedding transportation!

    We hired Jump on the School Bus to transport our guests from their hotel to our wedding venue. We sort of booked them late but they were able to accommodate us and did a great job. The busses are cool, you can put your names on the side, and they play great music!! All of our guests had so much fun on the bus. It was a great experience and worth the money!

    Great experience!

    We used them to transport some of our wedding guests on a wine tasting tour the day after our wedding and it was amazing! The guests loved the bus and the staff was professional, kind, and flexible. Highly recommend!

    So Unique!

    From the moment I booked our wedding venue, I knew I had to have Jump On The School Bus for our guest transportation. Working with Darin during the entire process was so easy. The drivers were very professional and friendly. Our guests had never seen a bus like this and we are so happy we worked with them! I would book them again in a heartbeat!

    Amazing Addition to our Wedding!

    Jump on the School Bus was a semi last-minute addition to our team of wedding vendors, and lucky for us they were available for our date! From the get-go Darin and his team were extremely accommodating and helpful, and very enthusiastic about meeting our needs and making sure everything went smoothly. They were great to communicate with and our coordinator had no trouble at all working with them. The bus was one of the highlights of our wedding day (and night!) and the driver was so wonderful and welcoming to us and all of our guests. They even went above and beyond by staying with us a little later into the evening to ensure all of our guests were transported to/from the after-party safely. I will hire JOTSB again in a heartbeat!

    Look no further, hire jump on the school bus for your wedding day!

    Following a recommendation from two of our friends who used Jump On The School Bus for their weddings, we ultimately decided to do the same as we had an excellent experience with them being guests to both weddings. One of the weddings I was actually the maid of honor in and was included in the group text that goes out with the drivers, can I just say WOW! Their communication techniques and style is incredible, it is a no brainer why they are the best of the best! When it comes to transportation (a BIG deal for a wedding), strong communication is an absolute must. These guys hit it out of the park! They provided frequent updates during every step of the process and quite frankly made it super easy for us to worry about other vendors and tasks tied to our wedding. The drivers are all very friendly and safe, the busses were clean, and everyone made it to their destinations (to and from the wedding) on time. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone who wants a great experience and to have their wedding day be stress free! We had the pleasure of working with Darin, Sierra, and Lindsay, and every one of them was professional and understanding of our needs. Thank you!!!

    From my very first phone call with Darin, I knew they were going to be great, and they did not disappoint! They are just great with booking, payment request, etc. Smooth from start to finish. We rented the largest bus for my son's wedding. The bus, driven by Ron (awesome driver) arrived early at the hotel to pick up the groom & the groomsmen and take them to the wedding venue about 20 minutes away. He then returned to the hotel to pick up a bus load of guests to drive to the venue. Everyone had a great experience on the bus. After the wedding, Ron drove the guests back to the hotel, while playing great tunes and even drove an extra couple blocks, so the bus could finish singing along to Bohemian Rhapsody!!! The compliments we got on the bus were over the top GREAT! Everyone is still talking about it! Sadly, I never rode on the bus, but I'll be booking a wine tour soon! Seriously, can't recommend enough!

    FYI - Regarding the price, we had the largest bus reserved for 8-9 hours, so great price!

    Darin and Sierra responded to our request to book right away and we couldn’t be happier. They were professional and made the booking process easy and stress free. Their crew was friendly, attentive and on time for all the pickups and drop offs. Their school buses provided a fun carefree experience that our guests loved. Book them for a fun & memorable transportation option!!

    I was SO incredibly happy with the services provided by Darrin and Sierra and the entire Jump On The School Bus team! Not only were they super helpful throughout the planning process but also they did an incredible job coordinating and executing transportation for a very strict venue, a ton of guests, and extra moving around that I added it to fit our needs. Their drivers were so timely, helpful, and kind, and our guests loved how unique their buses are right down to the personalized hashtags.

    From the moment we booked our wedding venue, I knew this was the company I wanted for all our transportation needs. Their restored school buses were the right mix of vintage, whimsical and comfortable. From the first day we called they were our partners in crime as we figured out the best way to get people to and from a venue that didn’t allow guests to drive up, as well as organizing an AMAZING wine tour the day before. Their flexibility as our numbers changed and knowledge of the area made it all a weekend to remember.

    Darin and Sierra are awesome! They provided a shuttle bus for our August 2016 wedding at the Ty Warner Sea Center, and they were incredible. They were always accessible, always nice, and always professional. They gave us a great rate and wonderful service. Our guests loved the bus and couldn't stop taking photos. Our wedding day transportation went seamlessly because of Jump on the School Bus. We will recommend them to everyone we can. Book them!!!

    We used Jump On The School Bus as our wedding transportation. It was something that all our guests thoroughly enjoyed. Weeks after the wedding, they're still talking about what a great decision it was. Darin and Sierra were easy to get in touch with and they kept things super simple so we could focus on planning the wedding. When our original driver dropped out, they had no problem finding a replacement. Ron, our driver, was the nicest guy. Super friendly and he transported everyone from the wedding to the after party bar. He even was nice enough to transport someone back to the venue who had forgotten some items. When the bars closed, Ron was waiting for us and drove everyone back to the hotel . I would recommend Jump on The School Bus to anyone. The buses are a great party environment. The drivers are super nice. And Darin and Sierra are on top of their game, making everything a breeze!

    We were hesitant to book a transportation vendor because of the great expense, but we are so happy we booked with Jump On the School Bus and the service they provided.
    They were very responsive before, during, and after the booking process and provided great insight and recommendations in the planning process when we were trying to figure out our timeline. Our driver was awesome - super friendly and helpful (as well as patient with our guests). He took photos throughout the night and sent them to us and kept us updated as to where he was and when he would be at each site.
    All our guests loved the bus and if we had to do it all over I wouldn't hesitate to book them again.

    Darin and Sierra provided a wonderful service for my daughter's November wedding. We had a late change in our reception venue and that meant moving our guests from the ceremony site to the reception. This was done with ease and little stress. Communication was excellent and we always received quick responses to all our questions and concerns. The drivers were fun and the all of the wedding guests loved the fun atmosphere on the bus rides. We also love the personalization on the sides of the buses - wonderful touch.

    Jump On The School Bus was the perfect transportation for our wedding. Darin & Sierra were friendly, organized and responsive and made sure everything was in order prior to our wedding day. Our driver arrived on time to pick us up, knew exactly where we were headed and the best routes to take, and was SO friendly and accommodating. She did everything in her power to make our transportation as easy as possible for us. The actual bus is great - I loved the personalized message on the side and the inside provides a really fun atmosphere for you and your bridal party to enjoy. The bus included a cooler with waters and the cooler was big enough to add additional beverages if desired. We also had a big bus pick up guests at the end of the night to bring them back to the hotel, and that driver was punctual, patient, and made sure everyone got home safely. This is a great, affordable transportation option for a significant number of people and I would highly recommend it. Thank you Darin & Sierra!

    Jump on the Bus is SO MUCH FUN! I can’t convey what a great idea this is for a wedding in Santa Barbara. We got married during Old Spanish Days (Fiesta) so having a reliable transportation source was essential. Jump on the Bus was an amazing addition to our wedding. Darin and Sierra were very organized in the weeks leading up to our wedding (particularly when we weren’t), giving us the best information on where to pick up and when, so that all of our guests could have a stress free day. The buses were personalized with messages of our choice on the side and included water to refresh our guests. The real highlight of the night was at the end of the reception, when we all piled into the big bus and headed down to State St for our after party. It was so nice to have a safe, free alternative for our guests to get home after a party with an open bar. It really allowed everyone to make the best of the night. Our bus driver was also incredibly thoughtful and helpful in getting us all to where we needed to go and taking care of a rowdy crowd. An especially fun touch at the end of the night was the pole in the middle of the bus, which has some of my favorite memories from our wedding. Jump on the Bus is a great transportation solution for any large event and is particularly great for weddings. I would definitely recommend them to any Santa Barbara bride to be!

    We used jump on the bus for my dad's 65th bdays at February and for my wedding two weeks ago! Both experiences with them were great!!! For my wedding we had two buses for 12 hours....they moved 200+ people around town....lots of drop off and pick up stops...I knew it was gonna be crazy and have some hiccups just because of how complicated the job was...but everything went great....the few small issues that came up throughout the day were addressed immediately....I was very impressed and pleased with the great service! I would definitely use this company again! Darrin is great!

    Darin and Sierra were fantastic to work with. They were very flexible when some plans & routes needed to change, even less than a week before the actual event. The driver was warm & so courteous, and helped a few of our older guests beautifully. All of our guests were charmed by the schoolbus, and enjoyed the partylights on the way home. Many also loved that the sign on the side was changed from "Jessica & Shannon are getting hitched" on the way up, to "Jessica & Shannon are hitched!" after the ceremony. I loved working with JOTSB and would highly recommend them.

    What a wonderful addition to our event! Our guests LOVED the bus, and they worked so well for our location. The bus was big enough for our guests, but small enough that it could get everywhere with ease. I heard raves for weeks after the event about how much fun the ride home was. I am a little jealous I was not on board! :) Thanks for everything guys!!!

    I Love Jump on the School Bus! I used them for a wine tasting event that was part of my Husband's and my wedding Event. I was referred to use them by a local and they were spot on with their recommendation! My family, friends, and myself had an exceptionally fun time on the bus. We dressed up in costume while wine tasting and had the best time! I would use them and recommend them to anyone looking for transportation and a good time. I wish I used them as my transportation to and from my wedding because the camaraderie and professionalism Darren portrayed was amazing! You're defiantly missing out on one of the best local Gems in the Valley if you have not tried Jump on the School Bus! I look forward to other events with them. I consider myself a longtime customer of them.

    Jump on the School Bus was a last minute decision of ours for our wedding transportation, and certainly one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding! They are extremely professional, friendly, well-priced, prompt, flexible and are one of the best vendors we had the privilege of working with!

    Highly recommend!

    Jump On The School Bus was a perfect addition to our wedding celebration. Darin and Sierra made coordination super easy, Vince was a great driver, and the subtle touches made the experience.

    The bus was an absolute hit with all of our guests and an invaluable tool to make sure everyone got home safely from our wedding reception. What began as a simple shuttle from ceremony to reception in the afternoon turned into a raging party come time to leave and Jump On The School Bus made it happen in a major way. We also all know that it's the little things that count and having the message on the side of the bus change from "Ryan and Lisa's Big Day" to "Ryan and Lisa Just Married" was an awesome touch that we didn't even think to request. Many thanks to Jump On The School Bus!
