      8 is my lucky number and this party bus gets my oh-so-important 800th review!

      Last night, I was debating having a low-key night. Then, I met up with a good friend of mine since she was in my neighborhood... Before I knew it, I'd agreed to join her and her friends on their party bus. It was only $20 per person and was hard to say "no"!

      This bus is a HUGE PARTY just waiting to happen. As soon as we got on the bus around 9:45, the crazy party began. We were blasting the music and dancing (and falling) all over the bus before we even started moving. We brought 3 huge coolers with adult beverages and enjoyed them along the way...

      We first went over the Golden Gate Bridge to take party pictures by the bridge and then back to clubs in San Francisco. The bus rides in between stops were SO fun! We only wished there were a bathroom on the bus so we could continue drinking and ride along longer...

      I just found out from another review that this bus uses bio-diesel which makes it even better! Watch out for the driver's fast breaking because a lot of people and drinks flew forward a few times!

      Without a doubt the best birthday party I've ever had. Actually, this was probably the best party I've ever had, period.

      One of my best friends and I share the same birthday so we wanted to do something special. He at first wanted to hire a regular party bus but I fell in love with the Yelp reviews for Teacher With a Bus and convinced him to go for it.

      We filled the bus with 40 friends and had an amazing time. The next day, our facebook event page was filled with things like "Best party ever" and "Oh my god, what happened last night?". Looking back at the pictures felt like the last scene from "The Hangover".

      Our driver, Alex, was extremely patient and fun. We made stops at Treasure Island, a bar in the Castro, Twin Peaks and finally the Golden Gate bridge. The bus is so charming and has an unbelievable sound system.

      We've already decided to make this an annual event for our birthday!

      This bus pulled into the lot, and my immediate thought were OMG. this is SUCH a burning man bus! and it was fantastic. Gray old school school bus, with multi colored tires =) I put together a napa winetasting trip for me and 30 of my closest friends..and Peter (the owner) was MORE than accomodating & helpful in the whole process of booking, & then working with me on getting all this drunken debauchery on the road.

      I HIGHLY recommend renting from Teacher with The Bus..'cause you are guaranteed an awesome time, there is a DANCE FLOOR on the back of the bus..and trust me, it is definitely a memorable time trying to dance,drink, and take pictures while that bus is moving. luckily none of us fell on our asses & hurt ourselves.

      There is ipod/mp3 player hookup, so you are in full control of the music, and that sound system is ridiculously loud =))

      You are free to bring onboard your own alcohol, food, whatever...and our driver even made pitstops at liquor stores for us along the way when we ran out..which was often =P

      We did get a little lost, but that was my bad since i forgot to send Peter the wineries beforehand, but we got to our wineries, we got drunk, we had a fantastic day..and for $1200 bux for 30 people for 8 hours...it's a STEAL.

      I'm already brainstorming the next napa trip...and i'll definitely be booking with Peter again!

      I went on The Magic Bus Tour yesterday, thanks Yelp for the free ride!
      The bus was cool looking inside, the concept is great, people were nice and met new friends. But I have to be honest I got kinda bored with some of the history part..yawn! oops, cover my mouth, did that a few times. I was expecting the history of SF in the 60s since it is a SF tour bus. There was some but mostly just 60s history in general, stuff I learned in high school. Maybe some of that LSD they were talking about in the film would make it a lot more interesting, they had some cool lighting effects going on (Umm say no to drugs!). Well it was an experience, I can say it's not like any tour bus I've ever gone on, that's a good thing.

      Definitely a 5 star experience!

      Loved every single bit, good communication with the organizers, very flexible! The bus driver was really nice and patient with us, took us all around the city. We had no bars stops but went to Golden Gate Bridge, Twin Peaks, Ocean beach and Treasure Island. We filled the bus totally- 40 drunken peeps and I had more beer on me than in me, but so worth it!

      Thank you Teacher with the Bus!! (:

      My birthday, June 2012 (:

      Get on the bus! Seriously, get on this bus 'cause it's way more fun and clean than MUNI.

      A group of us hired Teacher With the Bus for a trip up to wine country and we had a blast. Although this bus can accommodate up to 40 people, we kept it cozy with a much smaller group.

      Our driver showed up right on time and waited patiently for a few stragglers to arrive. He had a GPS ready to roll so all we had to do is program in the address of the winery and off we went!

      The best part about this bus? There's a rockin' sound system inside, where you can plug in an iPod with a playlist. The speakers are HUGE and can blast as loud as you'd like. It was hilarious to have onlookers stare at us while we drove through downtown Napa. Yes, we were "those people."

      Even though we requested to be back in SF by 8 pm, our tour lasted a bit longer than expected and our driver never said a word. Of course I made sure to give him a generous tip for his time, but he was super cool about the situation. It was nice not to have to worry about spitting out the wine since I wasn't driving for a change. Party time!

      Will definitely keep Teacher with the Bus in my contacts list for future road parties to wine country. Or just ride around in the city, drinking booze and hanging out the window. Either one sounds fun to me.

      This huge bus is like nothing you have ever experienced....unless you have been on it before. Awesome factors:

      1) Its veggie oil powered, so its not bad for the environment.
      2) He has put a black and white checked dance floor in the bus, where the seats should be.
      3) The seats line the outer rim of the bus, so you can watch the people dance on the black and white checked dance floor.
      4) You can dance on the freeway, in SF, wherever the bus is hired to go, all on the move.
      5) Drinking is encouraged.
      6) There is an ipod dock for your own tunes.
      7) You have to pay more if anyone pukes on the bus.....thereby eliminating people puking.
      8) Definitely the best party bus in the city.....
      9) It even drove us all the way to Redwood City
      10) The back seat vibrates, cuz its over the tires. Yes.....awesome

      It's hard to find a single bad thing to say about the Teacher Bus... and for good reason: it's an amazing experience!

      Though I've had a few pow wows with the man behind the bus about doing future Yelp events, I'd yet to actually ride the bus until I hopped aboard Mr. Stuart Schuffman's Broke Ass Bar Crawl on wheels last night throughout this fine city of ours. It's arguable that you can just pay $2 for a fare aboard one of our beautiful MUNI lines (since it seems like there's always someone poppin' High Life every time I ride) and call it a party bus, but a lift aboard this bad boy is a surefire way to do it right.

      Unlike other party buses you've probably experienced, this silver bullet is stripped of pretension and it's purpose is pretty clear: to get you from A to B in a safe, yet crazy enjoyable fashion! You can bring booze aboard the ride and the layout of the seats makes it really easy to interact with other people in your party.

      I'd recommend the Teacher Bus for anyone that's looking to celebrate a night on the town, a trip to wine country, or any other excursion that you deem worthy of renting a 7 ton monster of a people mover.

      So when a friend said we were going on a party bus for another friend's bachelorette night, the my first though was, please don't let it be anything like the last time (http://www.yelp.com/biz/think-escape-san-francisco#hrid:iQWXxUgCoNe0XZjcbi-zcQ) ..

      Let me just say, this was a million times better! The bus itself was way more appropriate than think escapes "party bus" which was really like a mini greyhound style shuttle bus.. The bus is built out with a sound system and dance floor in the back, bench seating all around, a table for appetizers.. It was roomy and comfortable, the windows all open for nice circulation, and best of all, it's no cookie cutter schedule. You basically plan where you want to go, instead of this choose from a list of 1/2 dozen lame clubs/bars...

      we crossed the golden gate and pulled over at the vista point for a champagne toast looking back over the night skyline, then headed to an "amusing" bar, over to Delores Park for midnight pinata bashing, and then off to a traditional japanese karaoke spot (the kind where you rent a private room with friends)..

      But really since it is a create your own itinerary, you could do just about anything with the bus. The driver/owner is totally cool, super friendly, and easy going. It can't be fun to drive a bus full of crazy drunk girls around on a Saturday night, especially when you have a sick kid at home, but he was a great sport and made for a very memorable night!

      Wow. I couldn't be more pleased with these guys. I called just 3 days prior to my event and Peter was incredibly easy to work with. In just a few minutes we'd arranged for the bus to pick up my group of 25 (though he said it could accomodate up to 40) for a day of wine tasting. Our driver Alex arrived 15 minutes early with his pet chihuahua Charlie. Yes, you read that right, our bus came with a friendly driver and an adorable, calm puppy who made the day that much more ridiculously awesome.

      Honestly, I can't rave enough about the experience. Highly recommend for casual daytime trips. The bus was fun and casual - a nice break from the over-formal party buses I'd rented in the past.

      Give them a try! You won't be disappointed.
