Charter Bus Rentals in Eden Prairie, Minnesota

A charter bus is a large, privately rented motorcoach designed to transport groups of people together to a specific destination on a schedule set by the customer. Unlike public transportation or scheduled intercity buses, a charter bus operates entirely on the renter’s itinerary, making it ideal for events like corporate outings, school trips, weddings, sports travel, or multi-day tours. Modern charter buses typically seat 40 to 56 passengers and come equipped with comfortable amenities for long-distance or local travel.

Our fleet includes vehicles from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI (J4500, D4505), Setra (S417), Temsa, Grech, Turtle Top, and Champion. Most vehicles are available in multiple exterior colors (black, white, silver, custom wraps) and can be customized with specific interior layouts or branding upon request.

Most modern charter buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, luggage bays under the floor, and a restroom at the rear of the coach. Additional amenities may include flat-screen monitors, DVD players, a PA system or microphone, 110V power outlets, USB charging ports, and onboard Wi-Fi. Some newer coaches offer leather upholstery, tray tables, footrests, and Bluetooth-enabled sound systems. Specific amenities vary by bus size and model, so ask your reservation specialist about available options when booking.

Yes, all full-size charter buses and most mid-size coaches have ample luggage space both inside and outside the passenger cabin. Large items such as suitcases, duffel bags, and equipment cases can be stored in underfloor baggage bays that run the length of the coach on either side. Smaller bags, backpacks, and personal items can be placed in overhead parcel racks above the seats. As a general rule, each passenger is allowed one large bag for the luggage bay and one smaller carry-on for the overhead rack.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally at least three to six months in advance, especially if your trip is during the busy spring or fall seasons. This gives you the best selection of vehicles and ensures availability. Last-minute bookings are possible, but availability may be limited and prices can be higher. For large events, multi-day trips, or peak dates (like graduations or tournament weekends), booking six months to a year ahead is recommended.

Yes, we require a deposit to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30-50% of the total rental cost and is due when you sign the contract. The remaining balance is usually due 30 days before the trip. For bookings made less than 30 days in advance, full payment is required at the time of booking. We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, and business checks.

Your quote includes the rental of the bus, driver’s wages, fuel, insurance, and any tolls or fees incurred during the trip.

Any additional services or special requests should be discussed at the time of booking so they can be included in the final quote.
