Charter Bus Rentals in Riverside, California

A charter bus is a large, professionally operated motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from destinations of their choice. Unlike public buses or scheduled tours, a charter bus runs on a custom itinerary set by the client. These vehicles typically seat 40–56 passengers, offer forward-facing seats, climate control, and luggage storage, and are used for events like school trips, corporate outings, sports travel, weddings, or multi-day tours.

Charter Bus Company Riverside offers a full fleet of vehicles in Riverside, including 15 to 35-passenger minibuses, 40 to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches, party buses for 10–40 people, and several types of specialty and ADA-accessible vehicles. We carry multiple models from top manufacturers such as Van Hool (CX45, TX40, TX45), Prevost (H3-45), MCI (J4500, D4505), Setra (S417), Temsa (TS35E), and Grech Motors (GM36, GM40). Many vehicles are available in multiple exterior colors (black, white, silver, custom wraps) and can be further customized with interior amenities to suit your group’s needs.

Most modern buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, and at least one onboard restroom. Entertainment options typically feature multiple flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, and a sound system with PA mic. Connectivity amenities include Wi-Fi (4G/5G), USB ports at each seat, and 110V power outlets. Additional features may include leatherette upholstery, folding tray tables, and optional custom branding or window shades.

Yes, every bus includes both interior and exterior luggage storage. Overhead parcel racks run the length of the cabin and are sized for backpacks, briefcases, or small duffel bags. Larger items go in underfloor luggage bays accessible from outside the coach; these bays can hold standard roller suitcases, equipment cases, or bulky items. As a guideline, each passenger may bring one full-size bag for the luggage bay and one smaller carry-on for the overhead rack. For groups with extra gear—such as sports teams or musicians—we can assign additional luggage space or recommend a coach with higher baggage capacity.

Yes, we can provide ADA-accessible buses with features such as wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, priority seating, and accessible restrooms. Just let us know your accessibility requirements when you request a quote, and we’ll make sure your vehicle meets all ADA standards.

Large coaches cost more than minibuses; longer or multi-day trips increase the total; and high-demand periods (spring, summer, holidays) raise rates.

It’s best to book your charter bus 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if your trip is during peak seasons like spring or fall. For trips during holidays, major events, or busy months (April–June and September–November), try to book at least 6 months ahead. Last-minute rentals are possible but may have limited availability and higher prices.
