Funny Bus Comedy City Tours, a Charlotte-based comedy bus tour company, is excited about adding some unique holiday tours this season featuring none other than everyone’s favorite green, furry, and funny character: The Grinch!
Funny Bus Comedy City Tours, started in 2015 by Kevin Anderson and Lisa Schnurr, combines history with comedy while rolling through the Queen City. The 40-passenger bus takes guests through all the cool and hip neighborhoods surrounding Charlotte such as Historic South End, Plaza Midwood, the NoDa Art District, and all through Uptown.
Time’s Money Magazine named The Funny Bus the “Best Tour in North Carolina” in 2018. It was awarded Best Comedy Tour by the Discovery Channel in the national “Official Best of Awards” in 2016. The Funny Bus has also been listed by Charlotte Magazine as Best Tour to Take Visiting Friends. In 2022 it was named Best Party Bus in Charlotte by Elevate Magazine for the second time. It is also featured on American Airlines in-flight entertainment!
The Laugh and Lights Tour with The Grinch will feature an R-rated adult only tour, rolling through Uptown, Noda, South End, and Dilworth. Guests will see homes decorated in the historical neighborhoods and throughout Uptown Charlotte. The bus will also pass many parks and highlights of the city decorated for the holidays, such as The Christmas Village at Knights Stadium, The Panthers Stadium, NASCAR Hall of Fame, Center City, Marshall Park, Romare Beardon Park, and more!
“These holiday tours were designed with the locals in mind to give them something fun and sparkly to see during these exciting weeks leading up to the holidays. All the better, they get to see it with the Grinch doing his usual zany stuff, only this time on the Funny Bus!” said Schnurr as she chuckled, “There will be lots of fun games, music, things like Ugly Sweater Contest, and so many photo opps!”
The Laughs and Lights Tour with the Grinch will officially start on Friday, November 25th and will run through Christmas. However, the bus will hold a “rehearsal” run on Wednesday, November 16th at 6:00 pm and invites press to call for spot availability.
Public Tours on the Funny Bus run Tuesday through Sunday, and private/corporate tours can be reserved any day throughout the week. The standard bus tour is adult-oriented and restricted to guests 17 years of age and older. Guests over the age of 21 are permitted to bring beer and wine for the comedy-filled funny ride. Tours begin at First Ward Park, across from the Market at 7th, making easy access to buy some beverages before the trip. The holiday tours, because they are here for a limited time, are anticipated to sell out fast. Holiday spots are $35 per person and can be purchased online at www.funnybus.net or by calling the office.
