Charter Bus Rentals in Los Angeles

A charter bus is a large vehicle rented by a group for private transportation to and from specific destinations on a custom schedule. Unlike public buses with fixed routes, charter buses go wherever you want—whether that’s LAX, Disneyland, SoFi Stadium, or a wedding venue in Malibu. The group organizer chooses all pickup points, drop-offs, and timing. Most charters are booked by schools, companies, sports teams, churches, or event planners who need reliable group travel across Los Angeles County. Amenities include cushioned seats, luggage racks, climate control, and sometimes Wi-Fi or TVs depending on the model.

We have one of the largest fleets in Southern California, with minibuses (18–35 passengers), full-size charter buses (47–56 passengers), entertainer coaches for band tours, and specialty vehicles like ADA-accessible or executive VIP coaches. All major brands are represented including Prevost, Van Hool, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Grech, Tiffany, Starcraft, and Diamond. Buses come in different trim levels depending on your budget and amenity needs—basic commuter shuttles, standard recliner-seat models, or premium builds with leather seats, hardwood floors, USB power at every row, and custom paint wraps.

Charter bus pricing depends on vehicle size, trip length, and time of year but most quotes fall between $1,200 and $3,000+ for a single-day local job. Weekend weddings or field trips within 50 miles usually run $1,500–$2,000 for a 56-passenger coach. Multi-day charters to Las Vegas, San Diego, or Yosemite are billed by the day at $1,400–$2,200 per day plus driver hotel. Minibuses cost less ($900–$1,600/day) while luxury entertainer coaches can exceed $3,500/day. Call 805-970-2390 for an instant quote tailored to your exact itinerary.

The main factors are total mileage, number of service days, bus size/capacity, and seasonal demand. Longer trips require more fuel and driver hours so they cost more. Peak months (April–June for graduations, September–December for corporate events) may have higher rates due to limited availability. Special requests like onboard restrooms, Wi-Fi, or custom branding add small surcharges. Overnight trips outside LA County require the client to pay for driver lodging. Last-minute bookings sometimes face rush fees if no vehicles are pre-positioned nearby.

Booking is simple: call our office at 805-970-2390 or fill out the online quote form with your trip details (date, pickup location, destination, group size). We’ll send you a free estimate within minutes. Once you review options and choose a package, sign the contract electronically and pay a deposit to reserve the bus. The remaining balance is due before departure. You’ll get a confirmation email with driver contact info and exact arrival time. Last-minute changes can be accommodated if schedules allow.

Standard amenities include high-back reclining seats, overhead luggage racks, reading lights, air conditioning, and underfloor storage bays for suitcases. Most large coaches have flat-screen monitors with DVD player, PA system, and USB charging ports at each row. Premium models feature free Wi-Fi hotspot, 110V power outlets, individual cup holders, footrests, and lavatory restrooms at the rear. Optional upgrades: leather upholstery, hardwood-style flooring, seatback tray tables, window shades, or custom exterior graphics for branded shuttles.

We serve every type of organization including public/private schools (LAUSD, USC, UCLA), youth sports teams, corporate offices, film production crews, religious congregations, political campaigns, concert promoters, and bachelor/bachelorette parties.

Client is responsible for providing single-occupancy lodging for driver(s) at each overnight stop, plus meal per diem if meals are not included.

No smoking or vaping inside the cabin at any time. Coolers should fit under seats or in luggage bays—not block aisles or emergency exits.

A standard 56-passenger coach has three underfloor compartments holding up to 400 cubic feet of baggage—enough for one large suitcase per person plus carry-ons. Overhead racks accommodate backpacks, purses, and small instrument cases. Oversized items like drum kits, bicycles, or AV equipment must be measured in advance to ensure space. Minibuses have limited storage suitable for day-trip essentials only. Label all bags with contact info; valuables kept at owner’s risk.
