Charter bus pricing is based on several factors: the type and size of vehicle (minibus, full-size motorcoach, etc.), the total mileage or distance traveled, the duration of the rental (hourly, daily, multi-day), and any additional services or amenities requested. Peak travel seasons, such as summer or major event dates, can also affect rates. Once you provide your itinerary, we’ll give you a single, all-inclusive quote that covers the bus, driver, fuel, and standard amenities.

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically due within a few days of signing the contract and will be applied toward your total balance. Your reservation isn’t confirmed until the deposit is received, so it’s important to submit payment promptly to lock in your bus and rate.

Your final payment is due before the start of your trip. The exact due date will be specified in your contract, but it’s usually required several days to a week prior to departure. We accept various forms of payment, including credit cards, ACH transfers, and checks. If full payment isn’t received by the deadline, your trip may be subject to cancellation or additional fees.

Yes, if your trip requires an overnight stay, you are responsible for providing hotel accommodations for the driver. The hotel should be a minimum of a three-star property and must offer parking suitable for a 45-foot motorcoach. The driver’s room should not be shared with any passengers unless previously arranged. If your itinerary includes multiple overnight stops, a separate room must be provided at each location. Please coordinate with our team to ensure the driver’s lodging meets these requirements.

No, your quote does not automatically include tolls, parking fees, or special permits required by certain venues or municipalities. These expenses are typically paid directly by the client either in advance or on the day of travel. If your route includes bridges, express lanes, or facility access fees, please inform your reservation specialist so they can provide an accurate estimate of additional costs. All known charges will be outlined in your contract prior to departure.
