San Marcos Airport Transfers Made Easy
Getting to Austin’s busiest airport isn’t always easy. Although Austin Bergstrom International Airport isn’t located far from downtown Austin, it’s surrounded by miles of highways that can be hard to navigate, and parking can be difficult. So for those planning to take public transit or shuttle into Austin Bergstrom Airport from San Marcos or elsewhere in Central Texas, we recommend looking into the airport’s ABIA Parking Shuttle bus or ridematching services, or you can call us here at Charter Bus San Marcos to help arrange your own private charter bus rental. An airport transfer with a Charter Bus San Marcos bus offers several advantages over taking traditional shuttles and cabs. First, our buses come in several sizes ranging from 12 to 56 seats or more depending on how many are on your roster. If you have more than just a few bags in tow you won’t have to play Tetris with luggage at the airport as a motorcoach includes a large baggage compartment and overhead storage racks to keep suitcases and personal items secure and out of the aisle. Finally, a charter bus or shuttle runs exclusively on a schedule and to locations that you’ve agreed upon with our reservations team and your assigned bus driver. No stops between stops here. With airport shuttle transfers by charter bus from San Marcos to Austin, groups can travel as swiftly and efficiently as possible so nobody is ever late to their flight. And the same goes for when you return home, just give your driver a call after picking up your bags. No more endless hours circling crowded lots or waiting in a taxi line. Instead, your group can unwind and recover on a personalized charter or mini bus with amenities, a reliable schedule and your driver’s expertise behind the wheel.

Wonder World Cave & Trip Park
- 1000 Prospect St, San Marcos, TX 78666
- (512) 392-3760
One of the few anti-gravity homes in the U.S. located on the side of Mount Balcones is the site where the Wonder World Cave began formation millions of years ago due to a major earthquake. Enjoy one-of-a-kind wildlife tours to meet exotic rescued animals like black jaguars and ring-tailed lemurs, travel 16 stories to the top of Texas’ first and only anti-gravity house where everything on the interior looks upside down (like standing inside a photograph), then venture down into one of Texas’ coolest and oldest cave systems on the Balcones fault. It’s a great place for the entire family to travel. Plus, the kids in your group can visit the petting zoo with baby goats and explore the dinosaur replicas throughout the gift shop!
Texas Mead Works
- 13533 TX-46 #105, New Braunfels, TX 78132
- (830) 837-4218
If the words “mead” and “tavern” on the same establishment’s signage evoke images of Vikings chugging cups of frothy, honey-like drinks in a room lit by fire and the flicker of candlelight, then prepare yourself, because a trip to Texas Mead Works will have a similar vibe—without all the beards and war cries of the Dark Ages.
This New Braunfels tavern is home to mead made from local Hill Country wildflower honey. Along with the original recipe of honey wine mead, the meadery also makes limited releases, such as mead blended with spices like cardamom and saffron. Enjoy seasonal flavors in a cozy, rustic, Germanic tavern where you’ll see stone fireplaces, long wood table, and old iron-clad chests adorning the dimly lit chambers.
Rent a Bus To Visit San Marcos Neighborhoods
Exploring San Marcos with a private charter or mini bus will ensure you’re seeing more than Texas State University, though there is plenty on campus to fill a few hours’ worth of activities! You may want to consider these local neighborhoods when building a day or weekend trip with a designated ride at the wheel.
Downtown
Plan a day touring some of San Marcos’ best places in this historic district, including the Calaboose African American History Museum, LBJ Museum, and Centro Cultural Hispano de San Marcos with a local bus driver who is dedicated to navigating San Marcos and its popular destinations. You and your group will be able to enjoy some of the city’s highlights including scenic views and unique shopping and local dining as well as see a few historic spots.
Kissing Alley
There’s so much lore behind why this special walkway exists: a popular one revolves around WWII soldiers and their sweethearts. Hop off the bus to take photos, eat and have drinks at these local establishments. Just a few steps away, local breweries and restaurants like Taproom Pub & Grub and Herbert’s Taco Hut can keep your group entertained throughout their time in San Marcos.
San Marcos Square
Enjoy a day of art and culture at one of the many music venues and galleries that the San Marcos square offers. Then, head over to Zelick’s Icehouse and Patio Bar for a classic Texas bar scene or Taproom and Kitchen for upscale comfort food to close out your trip. And if the night life in the city is keeping you going past 2 am, when most bars and clubs close, head over to Wake The Dead Coffee House and grab a late-night treat at one of San Marcos’s best coffee and tea shops.
