How to Choose the Best Bus for Your Trip

The best bus for your next trip is the one that most closely meets all of your requirements, keeps everyone safe and comfortable and has enough room for your entire group. The most straightforward way to begin your search for a bus rental is to consider the fundamental details of your trip, including:

• Who's going?
• Where's your destination, and how long is the drive?
• When do you leave?
• What's your itinerary?
• What's your budget?

With these details in mind, you can narrow down your search. For example, if your group is more than 30 people, you'll need something bigger than a van or a party bus. From there, you can narrow your search according to your preferred amenities.

While we work hard to keep our listings accurate and updated, we always recommend talking to your potential operator to confirm the details of each vehicle and ensure it completely meets your needs.

Bus Rental Prices

Each listing on BusRates will offer group bus rental prices for the vehicle. When you find your rental bus through BusRates, you can avoid hidden fees associated with brokers.

Generally, rental prices are calculated based on the hours and mileage of your trip. Most charter companies include the cost of gas in your quote, so you can calculate your total ahead of time and see how it fits in your budget. You can also request quotes to get more precise estimates for specific buses.
