What Affects Your Price
6 Factors That Affect Augusta Charter Bus Prices
Don't waste hours calling five local bus companies and waiting around on callbacks just to figure out what your trip will cost! Because Charter
Factor 1: Which Bus You Choose
If you're booking for a smaller crowd of 11 to 14 people, a sprinter van rental with a driver is your most budget-friendly option! Medium-sized groups love comparing our 15-passenger minibus, 25-passenger minibus, and 35-passenger minibus models or a 15- to 50-passenger party bus rental with LED lights and wraparound seating. For large rosters, a full-size 56-passenger charter bus with an onboard restroom and undercarriage luggage bays costs more upfront, but often gives you the lowest price per person. You choose the exact bus types that fit YOUR headcount and YOUR budget!
Factor 2: The Distance and Duration of Your Trip
Charter
Factor 3: The Time of Year
Keep the Augusta event calendar in mind when planning your budget, because high-demand months bring higher rates across the CSRA! Prices peak every April during Masters Week along Washington Road, as well as during spring proms, May graduations at Augusta University, and fall wedding shuttle season. Winter and mid-summer dates generally offer the lowest rates and the widest vehicle availability. No matter when you travel, our network of independent bus companies competes for your trip so you get a great deal!
Factor 4: Tolls, Parking, and Route Fees
With Charter
Factor 5: Long Days and Your Driver's Hotel
This keeps your driver rested, alert, and ready to roll for your school field trip or sports team travel.
Factor 6: Which Day You Ride
When you book a mid-week trip on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, you'll usually score lower hourly rates and shorter minimum rental blocks! Friday nights, Saturdays, and Sundays are the busiest days for private event buses and bachelorette parties in the Broad Street Historic District, which means weekend rates and hourly minimums are slightly higher. If your schedule is flexible, shifting your outing to a weekday is an easy way to save money!
Ways to Save
Top 4 Ways to Save on Your Augusta Charter Bus Rental
Ride on a weekday. Weekday hourly rates in the table start below weekend rates for most buses, and Sunday through Thursday typically run the lowest rates.
Fill the seats you pay for. A bigger bus costs more per hour but less per person: a full 56-passenger charter bus starts under $4 per person, per hour.
Book early. Booking early gives you the widest choice of buses for your date.
Keep your pickups together. Every extra pickup adds time on the clock, so one meeting spot keeps the hours, and the price, down.
