We also have party buses (10-50 passengers), sprinter vans (10-15 passengers), and school buses for budget-friendly travel. Every vehicle can be customized with amenities like WiFi, power outlets, PA systems, luggage storage, restrooms, and more.

The biggest factors are vehicle size (minibus vs. full-size coach), trip duration (hourly, daily, multi-day), total mileage (local vs. long-distance), and season (summer and holidays are busiest). Other things that can change your price include pickup/drop-off locations (extra fees for out-of-area service), whether you need the bus to stay with your group all day or just do point-to-point transfers, and any premium amenities like leather seats, onboard restrooms, or custom branding. Last-minute bookings may cost more, while weekday and off-peak rentals are usually cheaper. If you’re not sure what kind of bus you need, our team can walk you through the options and help you find the best value for your budget.

Renton is generally bus-friendly, but it’s important to plan ahead—especially if you’re traveling during rush hour or visiting popular destinations like The Landing, downtown, or Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park. Many hotels and event venues have designated areas for buses to load/unload passengers, but long-term parking may be limited. For pick-ups and drop-offs in downtown Renton, use the transit center on Burnett Avenue South or coordinate with your venue for curbside access. If you’re heading into Seattle, be aware that some streets have restrictions on oversized vehicles, and parking near major attractions (like Climate Pledge Arena or T-Mobile Park) can be challenging. Our team will work with you to identify the best spots based on your itinerary and make sure your bus has a safe place to wait between runs.

All quotes include exclusive use of the vehicle for the duration of your trip, plus standard amenities like reclining seats, climate control, and onboard entertainment systems. Optional upgrades (WiFi, power outlets, restroom, premium finishes) can be added upon request. There are no hidden fees—everything is spelled out clearly in your contract. If your itinerary changes after booking (extra stops, extended hours), we’ll update your quote accordingly. Tolls, parking permits, and gratuities are not included unless specified. If you have questions about what’s covered, just ask!
