We calculate your price based on the length of your trip (in miles or hours), the number of days you need the bus, and the type/size of vehicle you select. Additional factors include the time of year, current fuel prices, and any custom requests that require extra mileage or driver hours. Once we have your full itinerary—including all pickup and drop-off locations—we’ll give you a comprehensive, all-inclusive quote.

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your reservation. This deposit is typically due within a few days of signing your contract and can be paid by credit card, ACH transfer, or another approved method. The deposit amount will be applied toward your total balance, with the remaining payment due before your trip departs.

The final payment for your charter bus rental is due before the start of your trip. We’ll provide you with a specific due date when you book, which is typically 30 days prior to departure. If you book less than 30 days in advance, full payment may be required immediately. Final payments can be made by credit card, ACH transfer, or another approved method.

Our charter buses come with a wide range of amenities to keep passengers comfortable and entertained. Standard features include cushioned reclining seats, powerful air conditioning, overhead parcel racks, luggage bays, and PA systems. Most larger buses offer flat-screen monitors, DVD players, Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power outlets, and Bluetooth sound systems. Full-size coaches have onboard restrooms. Many vehicles now feature leatherette upholstery, wood-look flooring, color-changing LED lighting, and upgraded interiors. You can even request custom headrest covers, tray tables, or window shades—just let us know what you need!

We recommend booking your charter bus at least 6 to 9 months in advance—especially if you’re traveling during peak seasons like spring (April–June) or fall (September–November). Large events, festivals, and school schedules can make buses scarce, so the earlier you reserve, the better selection and pricing you’ll get. Last-minute trips are still possible, but availability may be limited and rates could be higher.

Yes, if your trip requires an overnight stay, you are responsible for providing hotel accommodations for the driver. The hotel should be a national chain and must offer secure parking for the bus. Please coordinate with our team to ensure the driver’s lodging meets all requirements. If your trip does not require an overnight stay, you are not responsible for providing accommodations.

No, your quote covers the bus, driver, fuel, and standard mileage, but it does not include tolls, parking fees, or special permits. Any tolls incurred during your trip will be billed separately after the fact. Parking fees at hotels, venues, or event sites are the client’s responsibility and can be paid directly or added to your final invoice. If your itinerary requires bridge or highway tolls, those charges will appear as additional line items. Please ask your reservation specialist about estimated toll and parking costs for your route.

Arden-Arcade doesn’t have many designated bus parking areas, but there are several options nearby. You can arrange curbside loading and unloading at most hotels, office parks, and shopping centers with prior approval. Longer-term parking may be available at large venues like Cal Expo, Arden Fair Mall, or local school campuses—just check with the property manager first. For secure overnight parking, consider nearby lots in downtown Sacramento or near the Watt/I-80 light rail station. Always confirm parking arrangements in advance to avoid fines or towing.

Arden-Arcade is served by Sacramento Regional Transit District (SacRT) buses and light rail, but public transit can be slow, crowded, and inconvenient for groups traveling together. With a private charter bus, you get door-to-door service on your schedule, comfortable seating, and room for everyone to sit together. It’s faster and more reliable than trying to coordinate multiple people on public transportation—and you won’t have to worry about missed connections or limited service hours.

We provide charter bus service to and from all major airports in the region, including Sacramento International Airport (SMF), San Francisco International Airport (SFO), Oakland International Airport (OAK), San Jose International Airport (SJC), and even smaller regional airports like Stockton Metropolitan Airport (SCK) and Modesto City-County Airport (MOD). We can pick up or drop off your group curbside at any terminal, and we’ll get you to the airport on time for your flight.
