Yes, you can hire a coach or minibus with a driver in Bremen through one enquiry: send the date, headcount and route and a fixed price comes back from a local Hanseatic operator. The steady work here is airport transfers, shuttles for the Freimarkt and the trade-fair calendar, and day runs out to Bremerhaven.
Bremen is one of Germany's smallest federal states and its airport sits about 4 km from the centre, one of the shortest city-to-airport hops in the country. Vehicles range from 8-seat minibuses to full-size coaches.

A four-kilometre airport transfer
Bremen Airport (BRE) is roughly 4 km south of the centre, usually 15 minutes by road and directly served by tram line 6, which makes it one of the easiest German cities for a group arrival. Hamburg is the long-haul alternative at about an hour and a half. The driver stages at the terminal coach point and tracks the flight for a pre-booked group transfer.
The UNESCO market square and old-town access
Bremen's market square carries a UNESCO World Heritage listing covering the town hall and the Roland statue, and the Town Musicians of Bremen sculpture stands against the town hall's west wall. The square itself and the lanes of the Schnoor quarter are closed to coaches, so drivers set down on the ring near Domsheide or Am Wall and groups walk the last few minutes.
The Bottcherstrasse, an expressionist brick street built between the wars, runs off the square and takes groups toward the Weser. Most Bremen city programmes work as a single set-down and a walking circuit rather than a series of short hops.
Freimarkt, trade fairs and Bremerhaven
The Bremer Freimarkt each October is one of Germany's oldest funfairs and fills the Burgerweide for a fortnight, which reshapes evening traffic and books out regional vehicles. The Messe Bremen halls on the same site run trade fairs and congresses through the year, generating hotel-to-venue shuttle work.
For a day out, Bremerhaven is about an hour north, where the German Emigration Center and the Klimahaus sit beside the harbour with coach parking. Groups also run the short hop to the Universum science centre on the city's eastern edge. A coach with driver covers either comfortably.
