When you call our reservation team, they’ll need your trip information in order to provide you with an accurate quote and to find a suitable bus for your trip. They will ask you about things like:
- The total number of passengers you are traveling with
- Where and when your passengers need to be picked up and dropped off
- Whether you will need transportation for a single day, several days, or on a recurring schedule
- What type of bus amenities you would like for your charter bus
Once your trip details are confirmed, they’ll provide you with a personalized, no-obligation quote. From there, you can decide to book your charter bus!
We personalize our charter bus rental quotes to each group’s travel needs. The cost of your charter bus rental will depend on a few things:
- The distance you will be traveling
- What type of bus you rent
- When you book your rental
- Where you start and finish your trip
- Additional travel fees
If you are only traveling within Denver, then you will most likely be quoted by the hour. For trips spanning across multiple days, you will likely be quoted by the day or mile. The cost of each bus will depend on what size vehicle you need. A full-size charter bus rental can accommodate up to 56 passengers and is more costly to rent than a minibus rental, which can typically transport 18 to 35 people depending on size and availability.
Other factors to consider include the time of year you’re traveling and what city you begin and end in. It’s common for rates to be higher during the busy summer months from April through June, and for deadhead fees (mileage accrued while no passengers are on board the bus) to be added to your quote.
The good news is that we work with groups of all budgets to find the perfect charter bus! Our reservation specialist will work with your needs to determine what bus best suits your group and ensure your rental costs stay low.
We can help! Just give us a call at 719-374-9377 and we’ll accommodate your requests. If you need to make significant changes to your itinerary or headcount, try to let us know as soon as possible. Changes like adding multiple passengers or a large amount of mileage may require booking a larger charter bus, which will change the cost of your rental. You can expect to see an additional charge for adding extra mileage and time to your trip.
We offer a wide variety of options! For smaller groups such as private tours, we recommend a minibus rental. Depending on the size of your group, you can choose from a 18-passenger minibus or a larger 25-passenger or 35-passenger minibus. If you have a bigger group, we also have a 56-passenger charter bus in our network, with plenty of seating space, a spacious undercarriage for luggage, and premium amenities such as onboard restrooms. We even offer ADA-compliant charter bus rentals in Denver with wheelchair lifts and wider aisleways! Just tell us what your group needs when you call us, and we can help you book the best type of charter bus.
