When you’re responsible for making sure a large group of people travels to one destination together, then you might consider looking into renting a charter bus. Before deciding on a company or on a specific type of bus, there are a few tips to keep in mind.
Event Type
One of the first details to think about when looking into charter bus rentals is the type of event you’re going to attend. If the group will travel to one destination and will be on the bus for a few hours, then a basic bus will likely be sufficient. A coach bus is an option to consider if you want to add a few stops on your trip or if you want the group to travel in comfort, especially if there are elderly passengers or children.
Seats
The number of seats that the charter bus you rent has will depend on the length of the vehicle and some of the amenities that are included. If you want to avoid renting multiple buses, then consider getting a bus that only has seats and doesn’t have a bathroom or other features so that you have a few extra spaces for passengers. Try to get a headcount of the number of people who plan to go on the trip so that you can talk to companies that offer charter bus rentals before making a final decision. Some companies offer a minibus that is about half the size of a traditional charter bus, which is ideal for small groups who want to travel together.
