Charter Bus & Minibus Rentals in Boston, Massachusetts

A charter bus is a private, pre-arranged vehicle rental that transports groups of people to and from specific destinations on a custom schedule. Unlike public transportation or fixed-route services, a charter bus operates exclusively for your group, following an itinerary you design. These vehicles are commonly used for events such as corporate outings, school field trips, weddings, sports team travel, and multi-day tours. Charter buses typically offer comfortable seating, climate control, onboard amenities, and ample luggage space, making them ideal for both short and long-distance group travel.

Charter Bus Company Boston offers a wide range of buses in Boston, including 15 to 35-passenger minibuses, 40- to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches, party buses, and several specialty vehicles. Our fleet includes vehicles from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Grech, Turtle Top, and more. We can also provide school buses, ADA-accessible coaches, and custom-wrapped vehicles for special events. Many models are available in multiple colors (black, white, silver, etc.), and larger groups can book multiple buses at once.

Most modern charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful air conditioning, luggage bays, overhead parcel racks, and at least one flat-screen TV with DVD player. Larger coaches often feature multiple video monitors, a PA system or wireless microphone, 110V power outlets, USB charging ports at each seat, and a restroom with toilet and hand sanitizer. Many newer models offer onboard Wi-Fi, Bluetooth audio, and optional HDMI inputs for gaming consoles or laptop presentations. Minibuses typically have similar seating and A/V amenities but may lack a restroom or full-size luggage bays. Additional options can include leather upholstery, tray tables, footrests, and custom branding or signage upon request.

Yes, all full-size charter buses and most minibuses have dedicated luggage space. Larger coaches (40-56 passengers) are equipped with undercarriage luggage bays that can hold one large suitcase per person, plus carry-on items. Overhead parcel racks inside the cabin provide additional storage for backpacks, briefcases, or smaller bags. As a general rule, each passenger can bring one full-size bag for the luggage bay and one carry-on for the overhead rack. If your group has extra-large items (sports equipment, musical instruments, trade show materials), please mention this when booking so we can assign a vehicle with sufficient cargo space.

Yes, Charter Bus Company Boston can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and accessible restrooms. Just ask your reservation specialist for an accessible bus when you call to get a quote. We proudly offer ADA-accessible buses in Boston and throughout Massachusetts. Many of the larger motorcoaches and several minibus models can be configured with a wheelchair lift, extra-wide entry doors, and securement areas inside the cabin. Onboard amenities include accessible seating, handrails, and—on select models—an ADA-compliant restroom. We recommend requesting an ADA-accessible vehicle as early as possible to ensure availability, as these coaches are in high demand for school trips, medical transportation, and special events. Our team will work with you to accommodate any additional mobility needs and can provide exact specifications for each accessible vehicle.

Several factors influence the cost of a charter bus rental in Boston: the size and type of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), the length and duration of the trip (hourly, daily, or mileage-based), the time of year (peak seasons like spring and fall are more expensive), and any additional amenities requested (Wi-Fi, power outlets, custom branding). Distance traveled and whether the trip requires overnight stays for the driver will also impact the price. Local events—such as sports games, conventions, or festivals—can increase demand and affect availability and rates. Additional expenses like tolls, parking, and driver lodging are typically not included in the base quote.

It’s best to book your bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rate. Spring and fall are especially busy due to school trips, sports events, and weddings, so advance booking is essential during these seasons. For major events or large groups requiring multiple buses, booking 6 to 12 months ahead is recommended. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and offer fewer vehicle options.

Yes, we require a deposit to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30% of the total trip cost and is due at the time of booking. The remaining balance must be paid in full at least 30 days before the date of your trip. For bookings made less than 30 days in advance, full payment is required upfront. We accept all major credit cards, ACH transfers, and—by special arrangement—corporate checks or purchase orders. Payment terms will be clearly outlined in your contract, and our billing team is available to answer any questions about invoices, receipts, or payment methods.

Your quote includes the bus rental, driver’s wages, fuel, insurance, and any standard onboard amenities (Wi-Fi, power outlets, A/V system). Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging or meals are not included and are the responsibility of the customer. For example, parking passes at venues like Fenway Park, TD Garden, and Gillette Stadium can range from $40 to $150 or more, depending on the lot and event. Similarly, downtown hotels and event venues may charge separate fees for bus parking. Our team will help you estimate these additional costs and can recommend convenient parking locations, but they will be billed separately from the main rental fee.

If you have a preference for a particular model (e.g., MCI J4500, Prevost H3-45) or need the bus to match your event’s color scheme, let our team know when requesting a quote. We’ll do our best to accommodate your request based on availability and will confirm the exact vehicle details before finalizing the reservation.
