The Open-Air Autobus, the Campaign for Greater Buffalo History, Architecture & Culture's vehicle for spreading the gospel of, well, Buffalo history, architecture, and culture, hits the road this year on Saturday May 26. The season continues through September.

This marks the fifth season of the Autobus, and several improvements to the retro vehicle have been made, including very cool snow leopard upholstery (left) and a roll-down, see-through rain fly that will have passengers laugh at the threat of rain.

Also new is a season ticket six-pack. All six tours, when purchased at once, cost only $100. Reserve for any available date throughout the summer of Buffalo love!

The innovation continues with payment possibilities. The Open-Air Autobus now accepts Discover and American Express cards, in addition to Mastercard and Visa. Receipts can be emailed to you.

As always, you can charter the bus for a tour of any duration. Base price is $600 for the 43-seat bus and two hours of expert, entertaining, and insightful commentary. Many groups (we've done families, school groups from elementary to college, law firms, ad agencies, block clubs, book clubs, and social clubs. You name the group or the occassion—birthdays, funerals, bat mitzvahs, weddings—we've done it.)
