Additional Information

Beer Bus is a hop-on, hop-off service for New Orleans’ beloved neighborhood craft breweries. Unlike standard brewery tours that take you to 2-4 preselected breweries, Beer Bus lets you choose from any of the twelve breweries on our route. Get off and back on whenever and wherever you like. Start in the French Quarter and finish on Frenchmen Street, or begin in Mid-City and end in the CBD—it’s your choice! We’re happy to offer recommendations, or you can decide on the fly. Our route schedules, live GPS tracking, and in-bus information about each brewery ensure you have everything you need for a safe, fun, and easy brewery-hopping experience. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, with a few friends, or with a group celebrating a birthday, bachelor, or bachelorette party, Beer Bus offers a built-in pub crawl without the hassle of arranging transportation!

Beerbus!! Enough said. - We had a great time and the driver was very informative about the tour. We enjoyed seeing parts of the city and trying all the different beers. We are already planning another day.

The Perfect Way to Pub Crawl! - This is the ultimate pub crawl opportunity! We (all NOLA locals) organized to ride the Beer Bus for a birthday celebration with ten people. There was ample room on the bus, even on a busy Saturday, and the bus was wonderfully clean and air-conditioned. The driver was very polite and drove us safely to each destination. The bus arrived exactly on time at every single stop, so it was easy to plan a schedule and stick to it with no guesswork. We enjoyed getting to try so many breweries (beer and food!) in one day without getting rideshares. I highly recommend!

Fun tour of great breweries! - This was one of my best Father’s Day gifts ever. We took the Saturday tour and stopped at 3 of the 5 breweries. This is a very convenient, fun and safe way to visit multiple breweries and taste New Orleans’ craft beer. The driver/owner was helpful as well as a nice person. We got to meet other locals and visitors on the bus which made the ride even better. I have to add that the bus was very punctual. You can go to the website for the drop off and pickup times for the day and can even track the bus location. I will recommend to everyone that likes craft breweries!

Reliable transportation while visiting a variety of breweries - I highly recommend the Beer Bus. We did the Sunday route while visiting for a long weekend. Since we didn't have a car, the beer bus was a great way to get out to different areas in town, and check out a bunch of breweries. Elizabeth was extremely friendly and helpful, and communication was great. Bus was kept cool, and on schedule. I love that we were able to track with gps too, just in case. We will definitely book again if we are back in town.

40th Birthday on the NOLA Beer Bus - Great experience on the NOLA beer bus!! Elizabeth, owner and operator, contacted us shortly after we booked to discuss our plan and the closest breweries to our hotel. A day before our tour, Elizabeth contacted us again to confirm our pickup details. We started at Brewery Saint X for lunch and a beer, then hopped on the beer bus. We were greeted by Elizabeth who was right on time and greeted us with a big smile. She provided us with valuable information about the breweries on the Friday route which helped us decide which locations we wanted to hit. We decided on Urban South, Miel, NOLA Brewing and Ecology. The NOLA beer bus was a great way to get around and experience different New Orleans breweries. Each have their own distinct vibe. Great way to spend a Friday afternoon in NOLA. Highly recommend! Elizabeth was amazing!

Beer Bus NOLA Style - My wife & I booked this tour as part of our New Orleans vacation. The beer bus driver, Elizabeth, picked us up at the 1st stop right on time. She was very friendly, she recommended things at the breweries, & was patient giving us extra time when it was needed a couple of times due to the breweries being busy. This is a great way to venture away from the Bourbon St / downtown areas & explore the surrounding breweries. Each brewery on the tour had unique beers & some had good food / food trucks. This was also a great way to interact with the locals. We’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone that likes beer & wants to explore some of the breweries New Orleans has to offer.

Festival Day - It was a great day because The Beer Bus added a stop for a festival, which improved my day since I didn't have to risk driving. The driver was very knowledgeable on both trips. It was a good time.
