The cost alone is a huge benefit. Compare the coach bus rental cost  to the cost of renting the 12-15 cars necessary to transport the same amount of people. When you rent a bus, you’re also putting fewer vehicles on the road—a great way of making your vacation or business trip more sustainable. There’s also the social aspect, involving building bonds, strengthening team spirit, and networking on the road with a top-of-the-line coach bus or a nostalgia-inducing school bus.

While every kind of bus and van rental has its own perks, chances are that there is one model that stands out above the rest as a best fit for your time. The best vehicle type for you depends on a variety of factors such as your passenger count, amenity expectations, and budget. For a how-to guide on how to choose a bus, please check out our blog.

As early as possible. As your departure date approaches, the charter buses in your region will get snapped up by other event planners. This may lead to price surges for last minute charter bus rentals. It can also mean your bus driver will come from farther away, increasing the drive time for which he or she must be paid. To get the best charter bus price , book as soon as you know your departure date. We recommend reserving at least six months in advance. Nine months is ideal if you’re travelling during your region’s peak tourist season.

To facilitate easier booking, we offer a Book Now, Pay Later option. Secure a charter bus at early bird pricing by accepting your quote months in advance. One you’ve confirmed your booking, wait to pay until 21 days before departure. This is perfect for coaches planning away games, bridal parties looking for a bargain, corporate event planners trying to make the most of their travel dollars, and college hopefuls operating on a student budget.

Charter bus costs vary depending on what time of year it is, the distance you’ll be traveling, the duration of your trip, local vehicle availability, and gas prices. That said, the most important factor is your driver’s total driving time. For a detailed explanation of how this works, check out our in-depth explanation.

This will vary largely by vehicle type. The coach bus, mini coach, and sprinter van all offer storage space with coach buses and mini coach buses having the most in the form of open undercarriages that can hold anything from tents to sports equipment. School buses and minibuses, on the other hand, have no undercarriage, so they’re generally better-suited for low-luggage trips.

Our buses are available with a range of amenities, including AC climate control, power outlets for recharging devices, TV/DVD support, and onboard Wi-Fi. The amenities available for your charter bus rental will largely depend on what bus type you choose.
