Frequently Asked Questions
What games work best on a party bus?
Games that don’t require tables, writing, or lots of equipment work best. Verbal games like Never Have I Ever, trivia, karaoke, and phone-app games are ideal.
How do you keep the party going between stops?
Rotate between games, music/dancing, and casual conversation. Don’t over-plan—sometimes the best moments happen naturally.
How many games should we plan?
Plan 5-6 games but expect to use 2-3. A typical 5-hour party bus might have 2-3 organized game sessions with lots of free-flowing fun in between.
