Day Trips from Albany to Lake George

Let a driver handle the weekend traffic up I-87 North (the Adirondack Northway) while your group kicks back and enjoys a scenic 60-mile ride to the Queen of American Lakes! Whether you’re planning a family reunion cruise with the Lake George Steamboat Company or a summer outing to Million Dollar Beach, your private bus keeps everyone together on one schedule. For steamboat tours, your driver can drop passengers off right at the Steel Pier loading zone at 57 Beach Road, then relocate to the designated oversized vehicle parking spaces along Beach Road or at the Lake George Visitor Center lot at the corner of Beach Road and Canada Street. If your itinerary includes history lessons at Fort William Henry Museum, your bus can pull right into the main motorcoach lot on-site! After a full day in the Adirondacks, everyone climbs back aboard an air-conditioned cabin for a relaxing ride home to Albany.
Charter Buses from Albany to New York City

It’s never been easier to take your school group, corporate team, or fan club on a 150-mile trip down the New York State Thruway (I-87 South) straight into Manhattan! Instead of coordinating expensive Amtrak tickets, splitting into a caravan of cars on the congested George Washington Bridge, or paying sky-high Midtown garage rates, your whole roster rides together from Albany to NYC in one climate-controlled coach. Heading to a Broadway matinee, a sporting event at Madison Square Garden, or a trade show at the Javits Center? Your driver can navigate Manhattan’s busy grid, drop your group off at designated curbside zones along 8th Avenue or 11th Avenue, and stage along approved commercial corridors near the Hudson River until you’re ready to head back upstate!

Planning a bachelor or bachelorette winery tour? Take I-90 West out to the Finger Lakes wine country around Seneca Lake and Cayuga Lake, or head just 40 minutes north on I-87 for summer concerts at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC), where buses unload and park conveniently in the Route 50 East Lot! You can also lock in round-trip concert and festival transportation to Bethel Woods Center for the Arts or Baseball Hall of Fame induction weekend in Cooperstown.
