56 Passenger Charter Bus

Charter Bus Company Lodi offers a wide selection of 56-passenger charter buses from the most trusted and reputable brands in the industry, including MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and TEMSA. These are the same vehicles used by professional sports teams, major corporations, and large universities because they’re built to handle heavy-duty mileage while keeping passengers comfortable. Popular models include the MCI J4500—which is widely considered the gold standard for modern motorcoaches thanks to its smooth ride, spacious interior, and sleek exterior design—as well as the MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. All of these buses are backed by strong warranties, excellent parts availability, and factory-trained service support. If you need something specific—like a certain model year, engine type, or seating configuration—just ask. We can usually accommodate special requests or find exactly what you’re looking for. When you book a 56-passenger charter bus from Charter Bus Company Lodi, you’re getting a top-of-the-line vehicle that’s built to last and supported by people who know the business inside and out.

Our 56-passenger charter buses are available in a variety of exterior colors to match the look and branding of your group, including classic options like black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We also offer custom vinyl wraps and graphics packages for groups that want to add logos, sponsor decals, or full-color artwork to the sides of the bus. This is a popular option for schools, sports teams, corporate clients, and special events that require a professional and cohesive appearance. Just send us your artwork or branding guidelines and we’ll make sure your bus looks exactly the way you want it.

When you book a 56-passenger charter bus from Charter Bus Company Lodi, you’re getting one of the most comfortable and well-equipped vehicles on the road—perfect for any large group that needs to stay together and move efficiently. Every seat reclines, has armrests, and comes with its own footrest so passengers can relax or even catch a quick nap while traveling. There’s powerful air conditioning that keeps the entire cabin cool (even during those brutal Central Valley summers), individual reading lights, and overhead parcel racks for smaller bags or backpacks. The bus is equipped with multiple flat-screen video monitors, a DVD player, and a sound system that allows you to play movies, run presentations, or connect devices via Bluetooth and AUX input. There’s also a PA microphone mounted at the front of the cabin for announcements or group instructions.

For longer trips, you’ll appreciate the onboard restroom with a locking door and hand sanitizer station—this cuts down on unscheduled stops and keeps everyone moving on time. The bus has Wi-Fi available so passengers can check email, stream music, or browse the web from their seats. Each row of seats includes USB ports and 110V power outlets so laptops, tablets, and phones stay charged throughout the journey. Storage is never an issue: there are massive underfloor luggage bays that can handle suitcases, equipment cases, or even coolers and folding tables for destination events. This is a vehicle designed for moving people efficiently—whether you’re heading to a conference in downtown Sacramento, shuttling fans to a 49ers game in Santa Clara, or taking a church group up to Lake Tahoe for the weekend.

A 56-passenger charter bus rental is the largest and most spacious vehicle available in our fleet, making it ideal for transporting big groups over long distances with maximum comfort and efficiency. Compared to smaller options like minibuses (which typically seat 18– 35 passengers), sprinter vans, or shuttle buses, the full-size coach offers significantly more seating capacity, better legroom, and superior amenities—including onboard restrooms, reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC systems, and advanced entertainment features like multiple video monitors, DVD players, and Bluetooth sound systems. It also provides extensive luggage storage with both overhead parcel racks and underfloor baggage compartments that can accommodate large suitcases, equipment cases, or even bulky items like coolers and folding tables. While smaller vehicles are easier to maneuver in tight urban settings and may be more cost-effective for short local trips, the 56-passenger charter bus is the best choice for any group that needs to travel together comfortably—whether that’s a corporate outing, school field trip, sports team, or multi- family vacation. It’s built for the open road and designed to keep people moving efficiently and on schedule.

We recommend booking your 56-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and get the best possible rate—especially if your trip falls during a busy time of year. Spring and summer are peak seasons for weddings, school field trips, graduations, and corporate events, while fall brings increased demand from sports teams and fan groups traveling to games and tournaments. Major holidays, three-day weekends, and large regional events can also cause buses to sell out quickly and drive up prices. If you’re planning a multi-day trip, need multiple vehicles, or require special amenities like Wi-Fi and power outlets, it’s even more important to reserve early so we can accommodate your request. Last-minute bookings are sometimes possible, but selection will be limited and rates may be higher due to short notice. Once you have your dates and headcount finalized, give us a call to lock in your reservation—it only takes a few minutes and will save you time and hassle down the road.
