From brewery, winery and/or distillery tours to everything in between, we can do it all!

We do weddings, proms, sports tailgating, casino trips, corporate events and incentives, shuttle services, and special events as well.

Most people reserve one of our buses as just a party bus. Our driver will take you anywhere!

We offer our buses for private bookings.

With the private rentals, we pick you up wherever you’d like and take you wherever you’d like to go, and the bus is yours exclusively.

Booking can be accomplished online through this website. Just go to the page and click on one of the ‘BOOK NOW’ buttons for your choice.

Answer a few simple questions that follow regarding your booking.

We will then email you an online reservation agreement to review and sign (via DocuSign). Once you sign it, we’re notified, and will then call you to get the deposit to officially lock in your reservation for you. It’s easy!

For private rentals, you’re paying from the time we arrive to pick you up until the time that we drop you off. It does NOT start when the driver leaves the bus storage, as it doesn’t seem fair to us to charge you for our drive time. However, there may be a nominal charge for pickups out of the central Indiana area.

You can pay for extra time if you need it. We don’t like to nickle-and-dime you.

Due to the nature of the way people book these shows at different pickup locations, usually your pickup times won’t be known until the buses get filled up. We don’t know our route or how many buses need to be used until closer to the day of the show. The pickup time will be approximately two hours before the concert starts, and an email will be sent the evening before the show.

The goal is to be at Ruoff Music Center at least a half-hour before the show is scheduled to start. The concert times listed on the website and booking process are merely the concert start times, and the actual pickup times will vary depending upon location and demand.

NOTE: Weekday concerts are especially difficult to schedule due to traffic problems and we cannot be responsible for unforeseen traffic issues.

We always run the cards you book with sometime during the week of your trip. We’ve found that this is what most people are happy with.

It covers our costs for the driver, gas, and the bus itself. It doesn’t cover anything you might spend at the stops we make, including any tasting fees. It also doesn’t cover any gratuity to the driver that you may want to make.

We don’t have any hidden fees, like an extra charge for gas or the driver. If the pickup or your route is outside of our normal area, we may charge you a little bit more due to the extra distance and time

This means that we drive from place to place. The establishments used to give physical tours of their facilities, but they’re just too busy to offer them anymore. Sometimes we get lucky and they offer a tour of their processes, but unfortunately that has become rare.

If you feel that your driver served you well, he/she would definitely appreciate a tip!

If you need to cancel, please do so at least 72 hours before your trip. Plans are getting solidified by that time.

If your credit card gets declined, please make other payment arrangements prior to your trip.

Sure! Just ask us when making your reservation.

This is very difficult for us to do because people usually want a specific time to be picked up and dropped off, then picked up again at a certain time. This means that the bus and the driver would have to remain idle during the gap and we wouldn’t be able to provide our services to anyone else during the idle time. It becomes a problem logistically, so we really have to keep to four-hour minimums on the bus rentals.

Snacks are welcomed, as a lot of the breweries, wineries, and distilleries don’t serve food.

Alcohol can be consumed on the bus, but please remember that the breweries, wineries, and distilleries allow us to stop by so you’ll purchase their drinks.

We have had complaints from our tour stops that our riders are sometimes too drunk when they arrive, so we must restrict hard liquor on the bus on brewery, winery, or distillery tours.

Also, remember that you CANNOT drink any alcohol once you get off the bus at one of our stops. Not only does this make the breweries, wineries, and distilleries very upset, but it’s against the law. Please support them by buying their stuff.

Bringing along your own cooler is fine as long as there’s room, and we should have a cooler of water for people, too.

Yes, we have driven many younger people to proms, birthday parties, and whatever else.

We don’t provide alcohol and we don’t check ID, so if a group of adults is on the bus with one or two people under 21 it’s ok. If the group ends up going to a venue that requires ID, those people will have to do something else in the meantime or hang out on the bus.

Sadly, our insurance agent has told us that our rates will double if we have a pole on a bus. No poles on any of them.

Not yet. This requires different licensing that we just haven’t done.

Sorry, we can’t under current Indiana law. You can bring your own or we can make a stop at a store for the private rentals.

Unfortunately, we do not. Hopefully someday!

You can call 317-443-2776. Please leave a voicemail message if no one answers and we’ll get back to you. This number cannot receive texts.

You can also send an email to topshelfreservations@gmail.com. If you don’t get a reply, try again. We think there is something wrong with our email sometimes, but it’s intermittent and hard to figure out what’s wrong.

There’s also Facebook Messenger.
