Several variables will affect the price of your charter bus rental, including local events and traffic patterns. For example, if you’re traveling during a busy time like the Lodi Grape Festival or a major event at Hutchins Street Square, demand for buses will be higher, and prices may increase. Other factors include the type of bus you select, the length and distance of your trip, the number of passengers, and any special amenities you request. Multi-day trips that require overnight stays will also need to cover hotel expenses for the driver.

You should book your charter bus at least four to six months before your trip to ensure availability and lock in the best rates. If you’re traveling during peak times—such as April through June when many school and church groups are scheduling trips—you’ll want to reserve your bus even earlier. Last-minute bookings may face limited options and higher prices due to increased demand.

You can get a charter bus quote by calling our reservations team anytime at 209-693-6480 or using our online quote form. Provide details about your trip—including pickup location, destination, travel dates, number of passengers, and any special requests—and we’ll quickly generate a personalized estimate. Our agents are available 24/7 to answer questions and help you find the perfect vehicle.

Your quote includes the base rental fee for the bus and driver but does not cover tolls, driver accommodations, cleaning fees, or parking passes.

Be sure to budget extra for these incidental expenses.
