Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Bus Rentals in Port Arthur

The cost of renting a charter bus in Port Arthur typically ranges from $197–$519 per hour or $1,600–$3,800+ per day, depending on the size of the vehicle, length of trip, and exact itinerary. Minibuses generally cost $1,200–$3,500 per day, while full-size 56-passenger coaches run $2,000–$4,500+ per day. You’ll pay either an hourly, daily, or per-mile rate based on your trip details. Multi-day and long-distance trips are billed by the day or mile.

Several key factors influence the price of your charter bus rental: the number of passengers (which determines the size/type of vehicle), the exact pickup and drop-off locations, total mileage or duration of the trip, number of days/hours needed, time of year (peak season demand), and any special amenities requested. Additional expenses like tolls, parking fees, and driver hotel/lodging (for multi-day trips) are not included in the base quote.

Your quote includes the base rental fee for the bus and driver for the duration of your trip, either billed hourly, daily, or per mile as specified. It does NOT include additional expenses such as tolls, parking charges, or required driver accommodations (hotel room) on overnight/multi-day trips—those are billed separately or arranged by the customer. Gratuity is also not included unless prearranged.

You should book your bus at least 4–6 weeks before your trip to lock in availability and the best rate.

Last-minute bookings are accepted if equipment is available but may face limited selection and higher pricing.
