About Daisy Charters
Family-owned and operated since 1980, Daisy Charters & Shuttles began as Daisy Tours, offering guided tours and excursions throughout San Antonio and the surrounding area. Initially, we didn’t own our own buses but chartered them from bus companies in San Antonio. In 1987, we purchased our first coach to service our growing business. Those early years gave us insight into what makes our customers happy and how to exceed their expectations.
After September 11, 2001, the tourism business declined drastically. Daisy Tours had already earned its DOD (Department of Defense) certification and immediately began helping out by moving troops from all over Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, and New Mexico.
We continued to grow and diversify our transportation department by serving sports organizations, convention planners, corporate meeting planners, and community organizations. In 2011, we established an office in Corpus Christi, Texas to serve the growing demand in the Coastal Bend and South Texas regions.
Over time, the transportation division of Daisy far outgrew the tour division, so the decision was made to leave the tour planning to the wonderful destination management companies in San Antonio. Daisy began to focus on providing outstanding transportation services, changing our name to Daisy Charters & Shuttles to reflect our new direction and focus.
Today, we manage a fleet of 26 coaches and continue to grow and serve the military and our community proudly by providing reliable and secured Military and Government Charter bus services and other transportation services.
