We calculate each bus rental quote based on the pickup location, drop-off location, number of passengers, type of bus, trip duration, mileage, and any special requests. Additional factors include tolls, parking fees, and whether the trip occurs during peak season. Multi-day and long-distance trips may incur higher rates due to driver lodging and per diem requirements. Call 559-491-9050 with your itinerary for an exact, all-inclusive quote.

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your reservation. The deposit amount varies depending on the size of the vehicle and the total cost of the trip but is typically around 30% of the total rental price. This deposit is due when you sign the contract and will be applied toward your final balance. Your reservation is not confirmed until we receive the signed contract and deposit.

The final payment for your Porterville bus rental is due before the start of your trip—typically 30 days prior to departure. If you book 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 reservation must be paid in full before the bus arrives at your pickup location.

Yes, your quote includes a standard driver gratuity (usually 10–15%) unless otherwise specified. However, if you feel your driver provided exceptional service, you’re welcome to offer an additional cash tip at the end of the trip. Most groups tip 15–20% of the total rental cost. Extra gratuity can be given directly to the driver in cash or added to your final payment upon request.

Yes, for overnight or multi-day trips requiring a driver layover, you must provide and pay for the driver’s hotel accommodations. The hotel should offer secure parking for the bus and be at least 2-star quality. Many groups book a room in the same hotel as the group for convenience. If the driver’s room incurs additional charges, such as parking or breakfast, these are also the group’s responsibility.

No, your bus rental quote does not include tolls, parking, or venue access fees. These additional expenses are the responsibility of the chartering party and must be paid separately during the trip. Any toll or parking fees incurred by the bus will be billed to you after the trip is completed. Please plan ahead and budget for these extra costs when organizing your transportation.
