Coach Bus Prices: How Much Does a Tustin Coach Bus Rental Cost?

On average, you can expect to pay between $170 and $325 per hour for a 56-passenger coach bus rental in Tustin. Daily rates typically range from $2,200 to $3,800+ per day, depending on the length of your trip and how many miles you’ll be traveling. If you need transportation for multiple days—such as a multi-day convention at the Anaheim Convention Center or a weekend wine tour in Temecula—you may qualify for a discounted daily rate.

Smaller vehicles like minibuses and sprinter vans are generally less expensive, with hourly rates starting at $150-$250 per hour and daily rates from $1,800 to $2,600 per day. Party buses fall somewhere in between, with prices ranging from $225 to $375 per hour depending on the size and amenities.

There are several key factors that will determine the final cost of your bus rental:

• Type of Vehicle: Full-size coach buses are the most expensive option due to their size and amenities (restroom, luggage bays, PA system). Minibuses and sprinter vans are more affordable but have limited seating and storage. Party buses come with premium features like wraparound seating, LED lighting, and sound systems, which can drive up the price.
• Trip Duration: Longer trips generally cost more, but you may get a better daily rate if you’re booking multiple days. Most companies have a minimum rental period of 4-5 hours for local trips within Orange County.
• Mileage: If you’re traveling outside of Tustin—such as a day trip to Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, or Downtown LA—your quote will include additional mileage charges. Local shuttles within Tustin, Santa Ana, or Irvine will be less expensive than long-distance charters to San Diego or Palm Springs.
• Time of Year: Bus rental prices are highest during peak season (April-June for school trips, May-October for weddings, and September-December for corporate events). You’ll pay less if you book during the off-season or mid-week.
• Day of the Week: Weekend rentals (Friday-Sunday) are in higher demand and therefore more expensive than weekday rentals.
• Pickup Location: If your pickup point is outside of our main service area, you may be charged extra for “deadhead” miles (the distance the bus travels empty to reach your group).
• Special Requests: Amenities like WiFi, power outlets, DVD players, or custom branding may be included in the base price or offered as add-ons. ADA-accessible buses are available at no extra cost but must be requested in advance.
• Tolls & Parking: Any tolls, parking fees, or entrance charges incurred during your trip will be added to your final bill. For example, parking at Angel Stadium, Honda Center, or South Coast Plaza may require an additional fee.
• Gratuity: While not mandatory, it’s customary to tip your driver 10-20% of the total rental cost for excellent service. Some quotes include gratuity, while others leave it up to the group leader’s discretion.
