Charter Bus Prices in Downey

The cost of renting a charter bus in Downey typically ranges from $1,625 to $2,635+ per day or $215 to $400+ per hour, depending on several key factors. Smaller vehicles like 18-, 20-, and 25-passenger minibuses are generally less expensive than full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches, but exact pricing depends on your trip details. Multi-day and long-distance trips are usually billed by the day, while local and short-duration rentals may be charged hourly. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver hotel accommodations (for multi-day trips) are not included in the base rental price and will be added to your final bill.

To get an accurate quote, you'll need to provide your complete itinerary—including pickup and drop-off locations, all intermediate stops, departure and return times, and the total number of passengers—so we can calculate mileage, hours, and any additional costs. Once we have your trip details, we’ll give you an exact price up front before you book.

Several variables affect the final cost of your charter bus rental in Downey:

• Vehicle Type and Size: Larger buses with more amenities cost more than smaller, basic models. A 56-passenger coach is more expensive than an 18-, 20-, or 25-passenger minibus.
• Trip Duration and Distance: Longer trips covering more miles or lasting multiple days increase the total price. Local trips may be billed hourly; longer trips are usually billed daily.
• Seasonal Demand: Prices are higher during peak travel seasons, such as spring (April–June) when schools and universities schedule field trips, graduations, and athletic events, and fall (September–November) when corporate events and conventions are common.
• Downey’s busiest times include school breaks, major events like the Downey Christmas Parade, and regional traffic patterns affecting I-5 and I-605.
• Pickup and Drop-off Locations: Serving areas outside our standard operating region (e.g., remote locations in the San Gabriel Valley or Orange County) may result in additional charges.
• Additional Expenses: You are responsible for tolls, parking fees at venues like the Downey Civic Theatre or Stonewood Center, and hotel rooms for the driver on multi-day trips. These costs are not included in the base rental fee.
