What Affects the Price of a Charter Bus Rental?

When you rent a charter bus in Bryan, your total trip cost depends on a few factors. Here are some of the main things that can affect the price of your Bryan bus rental:

  • Time: The length of your trip is one of the biggest pricing factors. If you’re booking a multi-day rental, you may be charged by the day or even by the hour for a short local trip. In general, the longer your trip, the higher your rental cost.
  • Travel dates: Spring and summer tend to be the busiest travel seasons for charter bus companies across the country. This is due to schools, camps, and churches booking trips during school breaks. We recommend booking your bus rental at least 6 months in advance if you’re traveling during the busy season. This will help you get the best price possible.
  • Distance: The longer your trip, the higher your rental cost. If you’re traveling around town, you may be charged by the hour. If you’re traveling long distances out of town, you’ll likely be charged by the mile.
  • Type of bus: There are several types of buses you can book, each with different amenities and pricing. The most common buses available to book include 56-passenger charter buses, 25-passenger minibuses, and 18-passenger minibuses. Larger, fully loaded charter buses tend to be the most expensive. If you don’t need a large charter bus for your trip, you can request a compact minibus to keep costs down.
  • Where you’re traveling: If you’re traveling in a small town like Bryan, you may find a limited selection of charter bus rentals. In these cases, a charter bus rental may need to be sourced from a nearby city like College Station or Houston. If this is the case, your rental quote will include the mileage from where your bus originates.
  • How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Charter Bus for a Week?

    Charter bus rental prices for a week start at $8,000 and go up to $15,000 depending on your itinerary and group size. If you need a fleet of full-size charter bus rentals for a week-long trip, your price will be on the higher end of the spectrum. Small groups traveling for a week can usually stay on the lower end of the pricing scale by booking a minibus rental.
