What Factors Influence Charter Bus Rental Pricing in Orange?

Here are some of the biggest factors that go into your Orange bus rental price:

Time and Duration: Buses are rented by the hour, day, or mile. Local trips within Orange County (e.g., to Anaheim or Irvine) are often billed hourly, while longer trips (to Los Angeles or San Diego) are billed by the day or mile.
Pick-Up Location: If your trip starts outside our service area (e.g., in Riverside or Los Angeles), you may pay extra for the bus to get to Orange. This is called deadhead.
Vehicle Size and Type: Larger buses (56-passenger) cost more than smaller ones (18-25 passenger minibuses). Specialty vehicles with luxury interiors or custom branding also cost more.
Seasonality: Spring and summer are peak seasons due to school trips, graduations, and weddings. Rates are higher during these times. Fall and winter (excluding holidays) are less expensive.
Trip Distance: Longer trips (e.g., Orange to San Francisco) cost more than short local shuttles.
Trip Duration: Multi-day trips incur higher costs due to lodging and per diem for drivers.
Onboard Amenities: Buses with Wi-Fi, power outlets, leather seats, or restrooms may have higher rates.
Tolls and Parking: Bridge tolls, freeway express lanes, and parking fees (e.g., at Honda Center or Angel Stadium) are extra.
Driver Gratuity: A 10-20% tip for the driver is customary and may not be included in the quote.
