Richmond, Kentucky Group Transportation and Charter Bus Service
Richmond is the Madison County seat and home to Eastern Kentucky University, sitting about 25 minutes south of Lexington and roughly three and a half hours northeast of our Nashville base. Metro Livery runs charter buses, minibuses, and executive vehicles into Richmond for EKU athletic travel, weddings, and corporate trips — as a Tennessee company serving Kentucky regionally, not a local storefront.
Why Madison County Groups Book Metro Livery
We Route Around EKU's Campus and Calendar
Eastern Kentucky University drives a lot of Richmond's group travel — move-in weekends, Colonels athletic events, Greek formals. We plan pickups around EKU's campus layout instead of guessing.
25 Minutes from Blue Grass Airport
Richmond doesn't have its own commercial airport, but Blue Grass Airport (LEX) in Lexington is a short 25-minute drive north — close enough that we run flight-tracked transfers on a normal schedule.
A Nashville Company, Honest About the Regional Trip
We're not pretending to have a Richmond office. Metro Livery is based in Nashville and runs this Tennessee-to-Kentucky route regularly enough that the interstate logistics are routine for us, not a special arrangement.
Drivers Who've Handled Madison County's Two-Lane Roads
Between Richmond's downtown, EKU's campus, and rural stretches out toward Fort Boonesborough, the roads aren't all interstate. Our drivers know the difference and plan timing accordingly.
Right-Sized Vehicles, 15 to 56 Passengers
A small EKU club sport team needs a 15-passenger van; a full wedding guest list or a Colonels team roster needs a 56-seat motorcoach. We quote the vehicle that actually fits your group.
One Regional Quote, No Hidden Kentucky Fees
Your quote for a Richmond trip covers the full round trip from Nashville — fuel, driver time, and mileage included — so there's no separate charge once we cross into Kentucky.
Airport Transfers
Richmond's closest commercial airport is Blue Grass Airport (LEX), about 25 minutes north in Lexington. We run flight-tracked pickups and drop-offs for individual travelers and groups connecting through LEX.
- Flight tracking with adjusted arrival times
- Executive SUVs for solo and small-group transfers
- Motorcoach pickups for larger groups flying in together
Corporate & Executive Car Service
Richmond's business community, including operations tied to the Blue Grass Army Depot and Madison County's manufacturing base, needs dependable executive transportation for client visits and airport connections. We provide professionally driven sedans and SUVs for that kind of corporate travel.
Charter Bus & Group Travel
From Eastern Kentucky University athletic and club travel to Madison County school trips and church groups, we handle the logistics of moving a full group at once — not just individual rides.
- EKU Colonels athletic and band travel
- Campus move-in and family weekend shuttles
- Group outings to Fort Boonesborough State Park
Wedding Transportation
Richmond's wedding venues, including estate settings like Lynwood Estate, draw guests from both Lexington and out of state. We shuttle out-of-town guests, coordinate arrival timing around each venue's layout, and provide a private vehicle for the wedding party.
