Private & Public Group Tours
The Nature Bus is your connection to all-things-nature across the state of Virginia. The possibilities are endless when it comes to your next nature experience.
Our private and public tours are guided by nature experts and organizations that offer one-of-a-kind, hands-on experiences at exiting destinations. We offer a diverse collection of tours that appeal to a broad spectrum of interests and activity levels, designed to inspire curiosity, adventure, and connection. Experiences range from educational, historical, and naturalist-led outings to hiking and boating adventures, health and wellness experiences, photography and birding tours, visits to local organic, flower, and oyster farms, scenic journeys through the Blue Ridge Mountains, and much more!
While the bus has its home in Charlottesville, it travels to nature destinations both locally and across the whole state! Your adventure is thoughtfully planned out, from the moment you step on, until you disembark. We make it simple for you. Just arrive, relax, and enjoy your memorable nature experience.
