We’ve helped groups of all sizes book reliable transportation for weddings, corporate events, school trips, sports games, airport transfers, and more.

A charter bus—also called a motorcoach, coach bus, or party bus—is a large, professionally driven vehicle that’s rented by a group for private transportation. Unlike a scheduled Greyhound or Megabus, a charter bus operates on your custom itinerary: you choose the pickup location, departure time, route, stops, and drop-off point. Most full-size charter buses seat 40–56 passengers and are built for comfort on longer trips, with reclining seats, strong air conditioning, luggage bays, onboard restrooms, and optional Wi-Fi or video monitors. Smaller “minibus” versions (15–35 seats) offer many of the same amenities in a more compact package.

A charter bus is a large, rectangular vehicle with a high roofline, flat sides, and multiple windows along each side. It typically has a single door at the front for passengers and several storage compartments (called luggage bays) beneath the floor. The exterior is usually painted white, black, or silver, but some buses may have custom colors or wraps. Most buses have a clean, modern appearance with smooth body panels, minimal trim, and either steel or aluminum wheels. Larger models may have three axles (two in the rear) for added stability and weight capacity.

Most full-size charter buses seat between 50 and 56 passengers. Smaller minibuses can seat anywhere from 18 to 35 passengers, depending on the model. If you’re not sure what size bus you need, our team can help you choose the best option based on your group size and trip details.

Anyone who needs to move a group of people from one place to another can rent a charter bus! Common customers include schools, sports teams, businesses, wedding parties, religious groups, and event organizers. Buses are great for field trips, corporate outings, athletic events, airport transfers, conventions, festivals, and multi-day tours.

We offer a full range of vehicles, including 15- to 35-passenger minibuses, 40- to 56-passenger full-size charter buses, and several party bus and entertainer coach options. Smaller minibuses are ideal for airport transfers, corporate shuttles, or moving wedding guests between venues. Our larger motorcoaches can comfortably seat up to 56 people and are perfect for school trips, sports teams, or any large group traveling out of town. Many vehicles in our fleet are newer models (2015 or later) from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, and Temsa.

“Charter bus” and “coach bus” usually mean the same thing: a full-size, 40–56-seat motorcoach built for group travel. A “party bus” is a smaller bus (15–40 seats) with a limo-style interior—wraparound seating, color-changing lights, sound system—for short, festive trips. An “entertainer bus” (or “sleeper coach”) is a custom motorcoach with bunk beds, lounge, kitchen, and entertainment area—used by bands, performers, or VIPs on multi-day tours.

Most modern buses come standard with reclining cloth or vinyl seats, strong air conditioning, overhead parcel racks, reading lights, and luggage bays under the floor. Optional upgrades include free Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power outlets at every seat, flat-screen video monitors, DVD player, Bluetooth audio system, and a restroom at the rear of the cabin. On some models, you can request leather upholstery, tray tables, or forward-facing PA microphone. Larger items like coolers, coffee makers, or card tables may be allowed by advance request. Exterior bike racks are available on select minibuses. All amenities should be confirmed at booking.

Yes, most of our buses can be equipped with free onboard Wi-Fi upon request. This allows passengers to check email, browse the web, or stream music and video during the trip. Please note that connectivity may be limited in rural areas or during severe weather. If Wi-Fi is important to your group, be sure to mention this when requesting a quote so we can assign a properly equipped vehicle.

A full-size charter bus has luggage bays under the floor that can hold one large suitcase per passenger, plus carry-on bags in the overhead racks inside the cabin. Smaller minibuses may have limited luggage space, so it’s important to discuss your baggage needs when booking. If your group has extra equipment (like musical instruments or sports gear), let us know in advance so we can recommend a suitable vehicle.

Yes, we can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and designated seating areas. Just let us know your accessibility needs when requesting a quote.

Yes, you can request a specific bus model, manufacturer (e.g., Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra), or exterior color (white, black, silver) when booking. While we do our best to accommodate preferences, exact availability may vary by date and fleet location. Custom requests such as matching multiple buses or avoiding certain models should be made in advance. Interior options (cloth vs. leather seats) can also be specified.

The cost of a charter bus rental in Palm Beach Gardens typically ranges from $1,100 to $6,000+, depending on the size of the bus, the length of the trip, and the time of year. Short local trips are priced by the hour (usually with a 4- or 5-hour minimum), while longer trips are priced by the mile or by the day. For example, a one-day charter to Miami might cost $2,500–$3,500, while a multi-day out-of-state trip could be $6,000 or more.

Minibus rentals in Palm Beach Gardens typically cost $150–$300 per hour, $1,200–$1,800 for a full day, or $5.50–$8.00 per mile for longer trips.

Several factors can affect the price of your bus rental: the size and type of vehicle (minibuses cost less than full-size coaches), the distance and duration of the trip, the time of year (spring and summer are busiest), and any special requests like onboard Wi-Fi or multiple pickup locations.

For multi-day trips or itineraries requiring an overnight stay, the customer is responsible for providing hotel accommodations for the driver. The hotel should have secure parking for the bus and be located within a reasonable distance of the group’s lodging or event venue. Most clients book a room in the same hotel as the group to simplify logistics. Single-day trips do not require driver lodging. Any tolls, parking fees, or meal expenses incurred by the driver during the trip are typically the responsibility of the customer and should be settled at the end of the charter.

Plan your itinerary with precise pickup/drop-off addresses and timing—factor in I-95 congestion, PGA Blvd. bridge openings, and parking at venues like Gardens Mall or Roger Dean Stadium. Book 2–3 months ahead for spring/fall events (weddings, sports, school trips). Ask about amenities: Wi-Fi, USB power, A/C, restroom. Budget for tolls (Turnpike, Tri-Rail, Causeway), parking, and driver tip. Confirm vehicle size: minibus (15–35), full coach (45–56), ADA lift if needed. Provide a single group contact. Ask about cancellation policy and payment terms. Notify us of special luggage, coolers, or equipment. Get drop-off details for PBIA, Gardens District, or hotel zones. Call dispatch if running late.
