Trips And Events

A charter bus rental—ideal for any trip or occasion.

When you're planning a group outing, there are lots of details to handle. Perhaps the most important, though, is how you'll get there and back.

Why You Want a Charter Bus for Your Group Trip

There are many great reasons to choose a charter bus for any type of group travel:

tourist bus rent per day

  • It's safe and secure— You'll have a professional driver at the wheel and there's limited access to the bus.
  • You'll have choices— You won't have to choose from a handful of prepackaged itineraries. You can go where you want to go when you want to go.
  • You can depend on a charter bus— Cancellations and delays are virtually unheard of with a charter bus.
  • You'll ride in comfort— The seats are big, with lots of leg room, and there's no middle seat. The aisles are wide and you can always get up and move around.
  • Everyone gets to enjoy the trip— With most forms of group travel, someone has to be in charge, keeping an eye on the GPS, watching the clock, looking for parking and making certain everyone arrives at your meeting place. With a charter bus, your driver will handle all the details.
  • You won't have the hassles that come with other types of travel— Because you'll ride on the same coach at all times and your luggage will go with you, you won't have concerns about missed connections or lost bags. There's no TSA security checkpoint, so you won't have to worry about what you bring, take your shoes off or empty your pockets. There's no such thing as "bus mode" for your phone, either. You can stay connected at all times.
  • Your bus can serve many purposes— It's not just a way to get you there and back. It can be a meeting room, letting you prep employees, give last minute instructions or create opportunities for group fun. It can also be a quiet place for some down time during a busy trip.
  • You'll have access to the HOV (high occupancy vehicle) lanes— You'll have less risk of getting stuck in traffic.
  • It's a cost-effective way to travel— On a charter bus, you'll share many of the costs of the trip with fellow passengers.
  • It's environmentally friendly— You'll put fewer vehicles on the road when you travel together on a charter bus. That lowers your carbon footprint.

At US Coachways, we bring more than 30 years of experience to charter bus rental customers across the country. Go to our online Cost Calculator to get a free quote on the cost of a charter bus rental. Call us at 1-855-287-2427 to speak with an experienced customer service agent.

Frequently Asked Questions about Charter Bus Rentals

  • How will I know that I have the right coach for my group?
  • At US Coachways, we understand that every group has different needs. We'll look at the details of your trip—how many people are traveling, how long you'll be on the road, what you'll be bringing or taking back, and any special needs of your passengers. Then we'll work with our vast national network of service providers to find the bus that best meets your needs. If you're traveling with a small-to-midsized group, the mini-bus is a great option, with seating for 24 to 35 guests and plenty of space for luggage and personal items. For larger groups, the full-sized bus is optimal, holding up to 57 passengers comfortably. Multiple bus rentals are always an option.
  • How much will it cost to rent a charter bus?
  • The total expense to rent a charter bus varies, based on a number of factors:
  • How long you'll be gone—If you expect to go and come back on the same day, you'll either be charged by the mile or by the hour (expect a minimum charge). If you're staying overnight, you'll customarily pay by the day.
  • How many people are going—That determines the size of your coach. As a general rule, the larger the bus, the greater the cost.
  • When and where you'll be renting the bus—The cost of a charter bus rental can fluctuate seasonally. For example, there's a greater demand for charter bus rentals in Florida in January than in July, so you can expect to pay more for a midwinter trip. In addition, it's usually a little bit more expensive to rent a bus in a metropolitan area than the suburbs or a rural location.
  • The day of the week—Because of demand, it's generally more expensive to rent a charter bus on Friday, Saturday or Sunday than other days.
  • The amenities you'll need—Most modern charter buses have Wifi, DVD players, stereos, PA systems and charging stations (for your devices) as standard features. If you need other conveniences, such as on-board bathrooms, you will probably pay more.
  • Any additional fees incurred—You will be responsible for all tolls, parking fees, permits and other costs of travel. In addition, if you stay overnight anywhere, you will typically be expected to pay for accommodations for your driver.
  • For a free estimate of the cost of a charter bus rental, go to our online Cost Calculator.
  • What is your policy with respect to the consumption of alcohol on the bus?
  • US Coachways allows the consumption of alcoholic beverages, provided you notify us of that intent in advance. Your driver will always have the discretion to terminate or suspend alcohol consumption. In addition, all passengers on the bus must be of legal drinking age.
  • Will you make multiple stops on the same trip?
  • Absolutely. That's one of the most attractive features of a charter bus rental. You tell us when you want to go, where you want to stop, how long you want to be there and when you want to return. In many instances, we can even make additional unscheduled stops without a problem.
  • What are the payment options?
  • US Coachways accepts a number of forms of payment, including credit cards, check, cash and purchase orders.
  • How much luggage can we bring?
  • That varies, based on the size of the bus and the number of people traveling. Your booking agent can help you determine how much each passenger can bring and whether you need a bigger bus.

The Smart Decision—Make Your Reservation with US Coachways

When you choose US Coachways as your charter bus rental provider, you'll have:

  • The flexibility that comes from our three decades in the business—The strong relationships we have forged with vendors nationwide give us access to more than 2,000 coaches. That gives us the agility to customize a trip to meet your needs. In addition, last-minute and real-time modifications are easier to accommodate.
  • Unmatched purchasing power—We set up an average of more than $55 million in charter bus bookings every year. That gives us local market knowledge, vendor loyalty and the ability to secure competitive pricing.
  • A dedicated service team—You'll work with the same people throughout your trip
  • Access to the US Coachways Trip Management Portal—This online tool lets you view data from all your trips in a single location, including invoices, itineraries and other information.
  • Full dispatch services 24 hours a day, seven days a week
  • A GSA (General Services Administration) approved service provider—We are certified to offer charter bus services to federal agencies and organizations, and have set up itineraries for the FBI, FEMA, the Marines and the United States Navy, among other entities.

How Much Does a Charter Bus Rental Cost?

Getting your trip budget together? National Charter Bus is here to help! There are multiple factors that will determine your trip cost, but for your reference, we’ve included the average prices of renting a charter bus below. Feel free to use the table to help you calculate, but please note that these are only estimates and are subject to change .

The actual price of your charter bus rental depends on different factors, which are outlined below. Hourly charter bus rentals require a five-hour minimum, and daily rentals may incur extra charges for mile overages.

How We Calculate the Price of Your Rental

It’s hard to figure out exactly how much a charter bus will cost until you call for a personalized quote , since prices depend on a wide range of factors. Here’s a breakdown of the most influential cost factors: 

  • How far your bus has to travel: It goes without saying that long trips will cost more than shorter trips. But, the way your price is calculated might vary depending on how long your trip is supposed to last. For example, one-day events that only last a few hours (like field trips or weddings) will probably be priced per hour, while multi-day events (like sports tournaments or long-term employee shuttle services) will probably be priced per day or per mile.
  • How many days you need it for: Similar to the point above, trips that span multiple days will cost more than one-day trips. That’s why we always recommend securing an itinerary (even if it might change a little!) before you call to book. That way, we can give you the most accurate quote based on where you plan to take your bus.
  • What time of year you’re traveling: Charter bus rentals see a “busy season” much like other industries. Our busy season usually takes place in April, May, and June, due to summer family trips, graduations, proms, and other big events. You can usually expect a higher price for trips during this period, but booking in advance will help us make sure you’re still paired with the best bus at the best price.

a bus drives on a long road into the sunset

  • What type of bus you want (charter bus, minibus, shuttle):  Full-size charter buses often cost more than smaller minibuses, but if you’re splitting the cost of a full-size bus 56 ways, the per-person cost won’t seem so bad. Your reservation specialist will help break down the cost of your desired bus so you aren’t left with any surprises.
  • Which special amenities you request: Many amenities, such as WiFi, plush seating, and ADA-accessible features, come standard on each bus model. Other amenities, like onboard restrooms, televisions with DVD players, and electrical outlets might come at an additional charge. Let your reservation specialist know if you’d like to make any specific requests, and we’ll make sure those requests are reflected in your bus quote.
  • Keep in mind: You may also have to pay for tolls, parking, and a room for your driver (drivers need to have 8 hours of sleep for every 10 hours they drive). And at the end of your trip, you’ll want to give your driver a cash tip of 5-10%.

For an exact quote, you can contact our reservation specialists at any time of day at 1-844-755-0510 .

Tips for Keeping Costs Down

While you’re organizing your trip details, here are some things to keep in mind if you’re worried about price:

  • Book early. We recommend calling 3-6 months before your trip to secure the best bus at the best price. This gives our team plenty of time to find the best bus for you.
  • Consider the per-person cost. Charter bus prices often seem high upfront, but when you get your quote, consider how much each individual passenger will pay when you split the total. Our trip examples below show that, often, the per-person cost of a charter bus is as much as or less than the price of transportation alternatives—but a bus is always more convenient!
  • Finalize your headcount. You don’t want to be stuck with a 25-passenger minibus when you only need space for 18 people. Conversely, you don’t want to book a single 25-passenger bus if there’s any chance that more people will come along. Finalize your headcount early to guarantee that you don’t 1) pay for more space than you need or 2) change your rental to include a higher-priced vehicle down the line. Plus, the more full your bus is, the lower the per-person cost will be.
  • Schedule your trip for the off-season. As we said before, our busy season usually takes place during April, May, and June, so prices are often higher for trips that take place during those months. The winter months (December, January, and February) often see the lowest prices.

To get an idea of what your trip might cost, take a look at the following examples:

Corporate Trip in Las Vegas

An e-commerce company needs to book shuttle services for an industry event at the Wynn Las Vegas . They’ve requested a minibus for 23 employees that will go from McCarran International Airport to the Wynn and then to restaurants and sightseeing destinations throughout the city. They will need the minibus for 3 days, and the bus is $1,100 per day. The Wynn offers free parking, but they will have to pay for accommodation for their driver and a tip. Their total comes to:

Minibus for 3 days:                                         $3,300 Accommodation for driver for 2 nights:  $338 Tip:                                                                     $364 Total:                                                                 $4,002

Field Trip in Atlanta

An administrator from a Douglasville middle school would like to rent full-size charter buses for a field trip in Midtown Atlanta . The sixth-grade students will go to the High Museum for an educational tour and finish the day with recreational time at nearby Piedmont Park . They plan to leave the school by 8 a.m. and return by 4 p.m., so they will be charged an hourly rate of $145.

Since there are 102 students in the sixth grade and they are accompanied by 9 teachers, they will need two 56-person charter buses . The High Museum does not charge buses for parking, but they will still need to tip their driver.

2 charter buses for 8 hours:                $2,320 Tip:                                                              $232 Total:                                                          $2,552

Wedding in New York City

A wedding planner wants to rent shuttles for an upcoming wedding with 48 guests (including the lucky couple). The elegant affair will begin at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan and end with a rooftop reception at Hotel 50 Bowery NYC , and the celebration will span 6 hours in total. The wedding planner has opted for one 55-person charter bus.

Because the bus is only needed for one day, the hourly rate will be $155 (note that the NY hourly rate is higher than the one in Atlanta, as an example of how costs can vary from city to city.) Because parking is incredibly limited in NYC, they have set aside $120 to pay for metered charter bus parking as well.

Charter bus for 6 hours:                           $930 Parking                                                          $120 Tip:                                                                 $105 Total:                                                             $1,155

Sports Training Camp in Austin

A high school football coach in Lakeway would like a charter bus to transport his team to Austin for a summer training camp at Austin Sports Center . Since they have 30 players and 2 coaches but only a short drive ahead of them, they’ve decided to book 2 minibuses for their trip. The minibuses will drop them off at training camp, wait for them to finish playing, and then drive them back for a total trip time of 10 hours. The hourly rate for the minibus is $145, so their total will be:

2 minibuses for 10 hours:                         $2,900 Tip:                                                                  $290 Total:                                                              $3,190

Family Reunion in New Orleans

A woman wants to arrange a bus rental for her upcoming family reunion . She and 51 of her relatives plan to travel from Charlotte to New Orleans on a charter bus. Because the trip will last four days, she booked a room at their hotel for their driver, and they will also have to pay for overnight parking for the bus. Their daily rate is $1,400. Therefore, their costs will come out as the following:

Charter bus for 4 days:                                   $5,600 Accommodation for driver for 3 nights:    $290 Parking for 3 nights:                                        $138 Tip:                                                                        $603 Total:                                                                    $6,631

Senior Citizen Trip in Orlando

An assisted living community administrator contacts National Charter Bus Orlando to arrange a minibus rental for their next social outing . Members of the community will travel to see the Orlando Philharmonic Symphony perform at Bob Carr Theater . Since several of the residents use wheelchairs, the minibus needs to be ADA-accessible, which won’t cost any extra (but they will need to give at least two weeks’ notice.)

With 3 staff members and 15 residents in attendance, our reservation agents paired the group with a compact minibus . The total outing will take about 4 hours, at a rate of $125 per hour, and they will have to pay $10 for parking.

Minibus for 4 hours:                                   $500 Parking:                                                         $10 Tip:                                                                  $51 Total:                                                              $561

Plan Your Charter Bus Trip

Now that you have an idea of how much your trip may cost, you can call National Charter Bus for a free, personalized quote. If you like the quote we give you and decide to book, you’ll need to pay a deposit in order to hold your reservation. Our partners usually request full payment at least 30 days before the trip. Need to book less than 30 days in advance? We can probably still help you, but you might have to pay for the entire trip when you make your reservation.

You’ll also want to ask about cancellation policies when you make your reservation. If you have to cancel a month or less before your travel date, you unfortunately may not receive a refund. If you cancel several months before, you might get part of your deposit back, depending on the charter bus company’s individual policies.

When you call 1-844-755-0510 , we can give you your customized quote and answer whatever questions you have about how to reserve and pay for your bus. With service in more than three dozen cities, we’d love to help you get to where you’re going.

Charter Bus Rental Pricing Breakdown

While the actual cost of your bus will depend on your group’s specific itinerary and amenity needs, here are average bus rental price ranges to help you build out your initial travel budget.

Please note that prices are influenced based on bus availability, time of year, the length of your trip, and more factors outlined on this page. The final cost of your bus may also change if you need to make last-minute changes to your itinerary, such as adding extra stops.

To get the most accurate quote on your charter bus rental, head over to our marketplace to browse bus types and compare prices from hundreds of bus providers.

*Please keep in mind that the prices below are estimates. Your quote will be influenced by factors such as the ones outlined on this page. Daily rentals are bound by a 5-hour minimum rental time, and extra charges may incur for mile overages during trips.

Charter Bus Rental Pricing Factors

There is no one-size-fits-all price when it comes to charter bus rentals . The overall cost of your bus will depend on a variety of factors, including but not limited to the specific bus provider, the type of bus you book, where and what time of year you’ll be traveling, and specific amenity requests.

Here are some trip specifics that will be unique to your travel needs and will affect the cost of your charter bus:

tourist bus rent per day

Distance and Duration

How long you need your bus for—both in terms of time and mileage—will change the price of your bus rental. Luckily, the CharterUP marketplace makes it simple to know the cost of renting a charter bus for a day, a few hours, or for a specific number of miles. All you need to do is input a few itinerary details like locations of pick-up and drop-off points, and our marketplace will generate real-time pricing on available charter buses.

tourist bus rent per day

Where and When You’re Traveling

Bus availability is also a major factor that will affect the cost of your charter bus rental. For example, traversing New York City by bus during the winter holidays will cost more than renting a bus in San Antonio during the tourist off-season. While the CharterUP marketplace brings you real-time bus availability all in one place, start browsing our platform for transportation options at least 3 to 6 months ahead of your group trip to ensure the best rental rates.

tourist bus rent per day

Bus Rental Type

The CharterUP platform features a wide range of bus rental options, including full-sized charter bus rentals, compact minibus shuttles, and much more. The type of bus you book will ultimately affect your bus rental’s price, with larger motorcoaches generally costing more than smaller bus types. Also, a coach bus with advanced features like WiFi connectivity, power outlets, TV screens, and leather seating will more likely cost more than a more basic model of motorcoach.

tourist bus rent per day

Bus Driver Expenses

Your bus driver will be a certified professional with all the experience necessary to keep your passengers safe between stops—so remember to tip and accommodate them appropriately! Your driver is required by federal law to rest 8 hours for every 10 hours spent at the wheel and every 15 consecutive hours on the clock. That means if you’re planning a multi-day group trip, you will be obligated to provide lodging and adequate rest time for your bus driver. And while gratuity is not required, a driver tip of 5-10% of the total cost of your bus rental is industry standard for a job well done.

tourist bus rent per day

Payment Terms

A deposit of 10% is due when you book to lock in your bus rental—your confirmation screen will tell you when the full cost of your motorcoach is due, and you’ll need a valid credit card on file to secure your charter bus reservation. Partial refunds for canceled trips may be available, depending on when you cancel and what bus rental company you book with. Before you reserve your charter bus, be sure to review your charter bus company’s expected payment plan and cancellation policy.

Example:  Las Vegas Bachelor Party

A soon-to-be groom wants to rent a private bus service in Las Vegas for his bachelor party. Since everyone will be flying into town and plans on drinking throughout the weekend, he wants to book a shuttle bus rental with a professional bus driver to ensure everyone has stress-free rides along The Strip without worrying about hailing rideshares or electing DDs.

With 15 men in the wedding party, the groom received a quote of $2,500 for his 3-day Las Vegas bus rental . The group intends to pool together a 5% tip for the bus driver as thanks for a safe ride.

Final cost including gratuity: $2,625

Example:  The University Club Outing

A university’s outdoor climbing club is planning a Saturday excursion to a nearby state park. The game plan? Rent a charter bus in Denver for 10 hours—including the 2-hour round-trip drive out to the crag, the time it’d take to climb, and a pitstop for lunch. With a charter bus on their side, the climbing club’s 45 members can stash their gear in the luggage bay and have plenty of room for a comfortable ride.

The university shuttle bus rental is quoted at an hourly rate for a total of $1,100, and the club will need to cover the state park’s $10 entrance fee for oversized vehicles.

Final cost including gratuity: $1,220 or $27 per passenger

Example:  A Corporate Conference

A Dallas-based company is hosting a 2-day conference and wants to secure a corporate shuttle bus service to ensure all attendees transition smoothly between the airport, participating hotels, and the conference venues. The event coordinator requests three minibus rentals equipped with WiFi and power outlets, so everyone stays connected and refreshed between stops.

Their Dallas bus rentals will cost $950 per vehicle per day—so $5,700 for a fleet of three coach buses for two days—and the coordinator can expect to pay about $400 total for the driver’s hotel rooms and parking spots than can accommodate a bus rental.

Final cost including gratuity: $6,710

What our customers say about CharterUP

“On the day of the trip I received a tracking link when the bus was on the way. Got a notification that the bus was in front of the lobby to get picked up. The driver was very courteous and thoughtful!

We were really satisfied with CharterUp and ended up giving the driver a nice gratuity at the end.”

 alt=

I would have recommended many times to people. My number one thing here is that you’re able to get them on the phone any time and they are able to fix the problem. Of course the technology and system is great, but the human touch is great, please don’t remove that. Great job to the people that build it. Much appreciate it and keep it all up.

“Entire experience was great. Provided the details for what I needed and then was given comprehensive options + quotes. Our driver was AMAZING!!! He was friendly, on-time, thorough, helpful, and efficient.”

I’ll never book with a bus company directly again after using CharterUP. Wish I found them many years ago.

We are new to charterUP and could not be happier with our decision. Been through a different bus companies and travel agents and CharterUP is the real deal. Find the costs very competitive to booking directly with the companies but they save you the time and headaches.

How Much To Rent A Tour Bus In 2022? Super Important Factors You Don’t Want To Ignore

How Much to Rent a Tour Bus?

Whether you’re a small or a large group, you’ll want to know how much to rent a tour bus . Typically, prices are quoted per mile or per hour, but some tour bus companies offer flexible pricing based on the type of trip you’re organizing and the number of people you’re expecting.

To get a better idea of tour bus costs , take into consideration the following factors before booking your luxury tour bus .

Tour Bus Rental Costs Variation – Tour Distance

The price of renting a charter bus will depend on how far you plan on traveling. Many bus rental companies include fuel costs in their quoted rates, but it’s best to determine the cost ahead of time.

For example, you can use Google Maps to figure out how many miles you’ll travel in your journey. Then, ask your bus rental company about their luxury ride rates.

Bus Tour Costs Variation – Tour Destination

Bus tour costs may vary depending on your destination. Some private bus companies charge hourly rates, while others charge by mileage.

This makes it difficult to get an accurate estimate of how much to rent a tour bus without consulting an agent. Also, remember that you must factor in the amount of space you’ll need on board, as paying for more space can lead to higher bus rental costs .

Plan your Itinerary Well In Advance for Affordable Bus Rides

To make the most of your bus rental , be sure to outline your itinerary beforehand. If you’re going on an overnight bus ride , you’ll want to make sure that you’ve booked the right luxury vehicle for your needs.

While the cost of the private bus itself may not be too expensive, you’ll need to pay for any additional expenses that may come up. Remember to also book the luxury bus in advance to avoid deadhead costs and additional mileage charges.

how much to rent a tour bus

Private Bus Rental Costs Variation – Number of Travelers

In addition to the price, the size of the luxury bus is important. You should consider how many passengers you’ll need to accommodate. For example, a charter bus can accommodate up to 60 people.

Auto-calculated weekly services.

  • GENERATOR SERVICES This is the maximum number of generator services that will be performed by your driver... A generator service will take place every 100 hours of use...
  • BUS WASHES & RENTAL TRAILER WASHES This is how many bus washes are suggested for your tour...
  • LINEN CHANGES Your driver will clean the bus every day... Once a week, the driver will change and clean the bunk linens... This is how many interior cleanings you should expect during your tour...

AUTO-CALCULATED SUB TOTALS

  • COST OF THE BUS Based on the daily rate you selected for your coach, this is how much it will cost for all deadhead days and tour days... Play around with the daily rate pull down menu as you may find you can afford "more bus"...
  • DIRECTV / WIFI All of our coaches come with dual DirecTV satellite systems and WiFi units... This is the total cost of satellite and WiFi for your tour...
  • MAIN ENGINE & TRANSMISSION SERVICE This number is based on mileage... We charge $.15 / mile to cover all main engine and transmission service costs...
  • TOLLS / PERMITS / IFTA / DOT FEES This number represents the costs involved with all tolls, state permits, IFTA and DOT fees in both the United States and Canada... We incorporate devices and transponders in each coach to manage the costs, documentation, and compliance with all tolls and permitting...
  • MANAGEMENT / ADMINISTRATIVE FEES This line item reflects a 4% Management / Administrative Fee based on the coach daily rate and trailer rental fee to help offset the increased cost of insurance, parts and labor...
  • END OF TOUR CLEANING FEES This number reflects what you will pay to have the coach cleaned, steam cleaned, all linens changed, final bus wash, and final generator service after your tour...
  • TOTAL FUEL COST While it is one of the three big costs of touring, it is also the big variable... This number is clearly an estimate, so remember to shoot a little high on your fuel price selection... Anyhow, this number, based on your mileage inputs, selections for fuel pricing and MPG, will give you a credible estimate of your fuel costs for the tour, including all deadhead fuel costs...
  • DRIVER BASE PAY This number represents how much your driver will cost for his daily base pay for your tour... Weekly services, overdrives, etc. are not included in this number, but are listed below as separate line items...

  • DRIVER HOTEL BUYOUTS (DEADHEAD) If your tour has deadhead on the front or back, the driver will more than likely incur "hotel buyouts" during that deadhead travel... Hotel buyouts are used to compensate / reimburse a driver for sleep breaks during deadhead... The rate for each hotel buyout is $150, and it is auto-calculated based on the number of deadhead days you entered...
  • PAYROLL FEES (25%) Taxes, taxes, taxes... This is the fee that our payroll company charges for all the driver's federal, state and local payroll taxes, along with worker's comp insurance and unemployment insurance... It is set at 25% of all earnings that are handled "in lease" if you go to contract... Call Don Neuen at Star Coaches to see how you can lower this cost by simply paying some of the driver costs on the road...
  • DRIVER HOTEL ROOMS Drivers require a hotel room each day of the tour... While this expense is always handled out of the road, we believe it is important to list this significant touring expense... That is why we suggest factoring in $200 / day for budgetary purposes...
  • RENTAL TRAILER Rental trailers cost $150 / day... This number reflects the cost of a rental trailer for your tour...
  • MISC. ROAD EXPENSES While on tour, you will need to purchase various items for the bus such as cleaning supplies, toilet chemicals, paper towels, etc... This number also factors in the cost for estimated Uber rides for the Driver back and forth to his / her hotel. While this is a small expense, it is an expense nevertheless, therefore, to create an accurate budget, we feel it should be factored into the equation...

And just because it was left out of a proposal, dosn't mean you won't incur the cost on the road... You will...

COST PERCENTAGE ANALYSIS

  • COST %: DRIVER
  • COST %: FUEL
  • COST %: TRAILER / MISC. ROAD EXPENSES / EXTERIOR WRAP

MILEAGE STATS

  • TOTAL MILEAGE How many total miles, including deadhead will your tour log? This is the number...
  • AVERAGE MILEAGE / DAY How many miles a day does your tour average? This number is your average daily mileage... If you're tour is costing you more than normal, more than likely, this number is higher than before... The bottom line is that the higher the average daily mileage, the higher the overall cost will be... If your average daily mileage is close to 400 miles a day, it is time to have a discussion with your booking agent to bring the routing back into line...

We are pleased to offer you the 2023 Star Coaches Online Tour Cost Estimator!

Now YOU can see how much bus your budget will allow...  Experiment with different logistical scenarios...

This online feature will give you a very good idea of the estimated cost you will incur on your next tour...

Things to Know Before You Charter a Tour Bus

Traveling in a luxurious tour bus is a unique experience and an ideal solution for anyone traveling over the road for extended periods. Since these buses are specially equipped to provide multi-day comfort on long journeys, most companies that rent them do so on long-term contracts. Many companies will charter or rent for a day.

Here are some things to keep in mind before you book an entertainer coach for your next trip:

  • Accommodations and features will differ significantly, make sure to see the coach before signing a contract.

Common Amenities on a Tour Bus

Because tour buses are designed to serve as your home out on the road, these vehicles are packed to the brim with amenities. When you're traveling for days at a time and spending long periods on your bus, you want every luxury you can get to make the journey more comfortable.

Most tour buses feature bunks or beds where you can relax or catch some sleep overnight and lounge areas where you can hang out during the day. While the details for each bus will vary, you can expect the following amenities from a tour bus charter:

  • Restrooms   | Always
  • AC   | Always
  • WiFi   | Almost Always
  • Screens/DVD   | Almost Always
  • PA Systems   | Often
  • In-Seat Power Outlets   | Almost Always
  • Airline Grade Entertainment   | Almost Always
  • Wheelchair Accessible   | Rare

We encourage you to ask your operators questions and request photos of your bus so you know you're getting what you need to make your trip a success.

Common Activities That Use Tour Buses

When you think about luxury tour buses, the first thing that comes to mind is probably the rock stars who tour the country putting on spectacular shows. Still, they aren't the only ones traveling in these buses. Entertainer coach buses provide comfortable, luxurious transportation and accommodations for a wide range of performers, political figures and everyday folks who want an experience like no other.

From road trips to tours and everything in between, tour buses provide an excellent home away from home for any group, including:

Bands and Entertainers

Bands and musicians

Political Campaigns

Political Campaigns

Theatre groups, comedians and entertainers, executive/corporate, visiting dignitary or executive groups, wedding party transportation, wedding venue shuttle, business commuter shuttle, college and professional sports, tailgate parties, traveling/hosting sporting events, nascar/racing events, benefits of renting an entertainer coach bus.

Renting a tour bus for a long trip provides you the ultimate convenience. Your bus should have almost everything you need onboard, so you can travel without searching for hotel rooms or places to stop for food and bathroom breaks. 

As with any rental, your entertainer coach will be assigned an experienced driver who will ensure you arrive at each destination safely. You can sit back and relax, and your driver will be responsible for navigation, traffic and parking. This driver gives you the opportunity to work on your performance, socialize or take a nap so that you arrive fresh and ready to shine.

Tour buses are an environmentally friendly alternative to other modes of travel, helping to minimize the impact of your tour by limiting the number of vehicles or plane trips required to get you where you're going. Most tour buses are relatively fuel-efficient and house an entire band along with some crew members, allowing you to carpool and reduce the number of vehicles on the road.

Rent a Car in Moscow and other Russian Cities

Driving in Russia is very cheap: the petrol costs only about 60 ¢ per liter (€2 per gallon), the infrastructure is relatively good, and there's almost no road toll charges, so it's a great way to explore the country, especially if you're two or more.

In order to rent a car in Russia you just need your driving license (the plastic card one), a credit card, and your passport — no extra paperwork is needed (you don't even need a translation).

The insurance excess and security deposits are usually limited to about €200, and the daily rent is about €20 for a standard car and €30 for an SUV. We've partnered with the two biggest car rental aggregators, so you can use the form below to find the best car rental deals for Moscow, St. Petersburg and other Russian cities from major local and international providers, such as Hertz, Europcar, Avis and others.
