Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Bus Rentals in Glendale

FAQS

The cost to rent a charter bus in Glendale typically ranges from $197–$519 per hour or $1,600 – $3,800 per day, depending on the size of the vehicle, trip duration, mileage, and time of year. Minibuses (18–25 passengers) generally fall on the lower end of that spectrum, while full-size 56-passenger coaches are at the higher end. You’ll pay either an hourly rate, a daily rate, or a per-mile rate based on your specific itinerary. Additional expenses like driver hotel rooms, tolls, and parking fees are not included in the base price.

Several factors influence the final price of your charter bus rental including the type and size of vehicle you select, the total distance traveled, the number of days/hours the vehicle is needed, and the time of year you book (peak season vs. off-season). Multi-day trips, last-minute reservations, and special events like major concerts or sporting events can also impact pricing. Amenities such as reclining seats, restrooms, WiFi, and entertainment systems may affect the cost as well.
