Charter Bus Prices in Carmel

Most groups book their buses anywhere from a few weeks to six months in advance. That’s because bus availability will become more and more limited the longer you wait to book your trip. Consider what time of year you’ll be traveling (is it during a busy sports season or during a major event?) and how soon you’ll need to solidify your transportation before your trip. While we can sometimes accommodate last-minute rentals, we always suggest booking your bus as far in advance as possible.

And if you aren’t sure of your headcount or itinerary just yet, that’s okay! Our reservation specialists can provide you with a free quote once you have your passenger count, travel dates, and list of pickup and dropoff locations. From there, we can provide you with a few bus options with pricing so you can decide which rental is best for your group.

Not all bus rentals are created equal when it comes to pricing. Here are a few things that may affect the cost of your Carmel bus rental:

• Time of year: Like many other industries, charter bus rentals have busy seasons and off-seasons. If your trip falls during a busy season like summer or around a major event like the Carmel Christkindlmarkt, your rental may be more expensive.
• Pick-up location: If your trip starts in Carmel, your rental may be less expensive than if it starts in a smaller town outside the city. That’s because larger cities have more buses available, so supply is higher.
• Type of bus: Larger buses like a 56-passenger motorcoach are more expensive than smaller buses like a 25-passenger minibus. However, the more passengers you have, the more you can split the cost, making it less expensive per person.
• Trip duration: Longer trips that span multiple days will cost more than shorter, local trips. You may be charged by the hour, by the day, or by the mile, depending on your itinerary.
• On-board amenities: Buses with luxury amenities like leather seats, flat-screen TVs, and WiFi may cost more than standard models.
