To help you better understand what your final price might look like, here are some real-world examples of quotes we’ve given to customers recently:

Example #1: A technology company in Waltham, Massachusetts is sending their sales department to a two-day conference in New York City for professional development. The company needs a charter bus with at least 55 seats to transport the employees and their luggage to the event. Their driver will also transport them between the hotel and the venue each morning and evening. The technology company received a quote for $4,600 for their two-day charter bus rental, and they plan to tip their driver 15%.

Final cost including gratuity: $5,290

Example #2: Last summer, a high school baseball team in San Diego requested a shuttle rental to the playoffs in Los Angeles. With 17 players, four coaches, and an extensive amount of equipment and luggage to bring to the tournament, the team settled on a coach bus rental with a seating capacity of 50. The head coach received a quote for $2,700 and tipped the driver 10% at the end of the trip.

Final cost including gratuity: $2,970

Example #3: A private high school in Middlesex County contacted Waltham Charter Bus to book transportation for a three-day senior class trip to Washington, DC. The school needed one 56-passenger bus to accommodate 48 students and six chaperones. The trip would depart from Waltham on a Friday morning and return Sunday evening. The total package price came to $7,800. The school paid a $1,000 deposit and the balance prior to departure.

Example #4: A youth hockey team based in Newton rented a charter bus for a weekend tournament in Providence, Rhode Island. They required a vehicle with room for 20 players, four coaches, and bulky equipment bags. The team manager received a quote of $2,400 for a two-day rental, plus a 15% driver gratuity. Parents split the final cost of $2,760.

Several factors influence the cost of renting a charter bus in Waltham, including the type and size of vehicle, number of passengers, trip distance, duration, itinerary complexity (multiple stops vs. point-to-point), and timing (peak demand periods). Local events like college move-in days, sports championships, Boston Marathon shuttles, and downtown construction can also affect availability and rates. Once you have your itinerary locked in, you’ll be able to get the most accurate estimate for your trip.

Our charter buses come standard with cushioned reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC systems, overhead parcel racks, and either vinyl or fabric upholstery. Most models include a rear luggage compartment and an onboard restroom with toilet and sink. Additional amenities available on select vehicles include flat-screen video monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, 110V power outlets, USB charging ports, Wi-Fi connectivity, public address microphones, tinted windows, and upgraded sound systems.

Specific configurations vary by manufacturer and model year—please contact us for exact specifications on the bus assigned to your trip.

You should book your charter bus at least four to six months before your trip. This helps you get the best selection of vehicles at the lowest rates, especially during busy times like spring field trips, summer weddings, or fall college shuttles. If you’re traveling around major events—like Boston Marathon Weekend, college move-in days for Brandeis and Bentley, or big games at Fenway and Gillette Stadium—buses sell out fast and prices go up. Last-minute reservations limit your options and may cost more due to high demand. Lock in your date early to save money and secure the perfect vehicle for your group. Waltham Charter Bus accepts bookings up to one year in advance.

You can get a charter bus rental quote by calling our 24/7 reservation team at 781-822-7190 or using our online form.

Once you receive your quote, you can easily compare options, ask questions, and finalize your reservation with a deposit to lock in your rate.

Your charter bus quote includes the base rental fee for your vehicle, driver compensation, fuel, and mileage or hourly charges based on your itinerary. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, driver accommodations for overnight trips, cleaning fees, and special permits are not included and will be billed separately. For example, parking passes at local venues like Fenway Park ($55–$100), TD Garden ($40–$75), and Gillette Stadium ($150–$225) must be purchased in advance and are the responsibility of the customer. Please review your contract carefully for a complete breakdown of included and excluded items.
