Union Wine Tour & Pub Crawl Transportation

Partybusunion.com helps you compare bus rental options; it is not the bus company and does not rent, own, or operate vehicles. When you submit the quote form, your trip details go through a booking company so you can review pricing and available vehicles for your date. You compare the options and book through the process shown with your quote.

Partybusunion.com is a quote-comparison website — not a bus company. Fill out one short form or call 551-300-6110, and the site pulls available vehicles and rates from a network of independently owned transportation companies serving Union and Union County. You compare options side by side and find what fits your group, without calling company after company to describe the same trip repeatedly.

Enter your trip details — pickup location in or near Union, your planned stops, date, and group size — and you'll see available vehicles with rates in under a minute. No account required. If you'd rather talk it through first, call 551-300-6110 any time and the support team can walk through options with you, explain what vehicle fits your headcount and itinerary, and get you a quote without any pressure to book on the spot.

Laurita Winery in New Egypt (Monmouth County) is one of the most visited in the state, with a large event space and a full tasting room — about 55 minutes from Union via I-195. Working Dog Winery in Robbinsville runs structured tastings and is closer, roughly 40 minutes south. Sharrott Winery in Blue Anchor and Valenzano Winery in Shamong are both solid Outer Coastal Plain stops that work well on the same day trip without backtracking.

The heart of New Jersey's Outer Coastal Plain AVA — where most of the state's estate wineries operate — is roughly 45 to 65 minutes from Union by charter bus, depending on traffic on the Parkway and I-195. That's a very manageable day-trip window. Departing Union by 9:30–10am typically gets your group to the first winery in time for opening tastings, with enough hours left to hit two or three stops before an early-evening return.

A 15–35 passenger minibus is the right fit for most groups in that range. Minibuses are easier to navigate into smaller winery lots and taproom parking areas than a full-size charter bus — most New Jersey farm winery driveways weren't designed for a 45-foot coach. Rates for a Union minibus rental typically run $200–$275 per hour on weekdays and $200–$275 per hour on weekends, with all-day options available.

For fall harvest season — September through early November — book at least six to eight weeks out. New Jersey winery events and harvest festivals during that window are high-demand weekends for group transportation across the entire region, and vehicle availability tightens fast. Spring bookings for May and June wine events follow a similar curve.

Outside those peak months, two to three weeks of lead time is usually workable, but earlier always gives you better vehicle selection and more rate flexibility.

Yes — that's exactly the scenario where a bus outperforms rideshare or a caravan of personal vehicles by the widest margin. A multi-stop crawl across Rahway, Westfield, Cranford, and into Asbury Park, for example, creates a real parking and coordination problem for cars that have to relocate between each stop. A Union brewery crawl bus loads once, stages near each taproom while your group is inside, and moves on your timeline rather than a rideshare app's surge window.
