Charter Bus Rentals Santa Rosa, California

The cost of a charter bus rental in Santa Rosa typically ranges from $1,200 to $4,500 or more, depending on the size of the vehicle, length of the trip, and time of year. Local trips are usually billed by the hour (with a 4- or 5-hour minimum), while longer out-of-town trips are billed by the mile or by the day. Large 56-passenger coaches are more expensive than smaller minibuses. Peak travel seasons—spring (April–June) and fall (September–November)—see higher rates due to increased demand from schools, wine tours, and event groups.

Yes, most full-size charter buses (36–56 passengers) have a bathroom located at the rear of the cabin. The restroom is compact and includes a toilet and hand sanitizer dispenser. It’s designed for emergency use while the bus is moving. For longer trips, the driver can stop at rest areas or gas stations so passengers can use larger facilities. Minibuses (18–35 passengers) typically do not have a restroom on board due to space limitations. If a restroom is important for your group, please request a vehicle with this amenity when booking.

Yes, most newer charter buses have either 110V power outlets or USB charging ports at each row of seats. Larger coaches often include both types of outlets to accommodate laptops, tablets, and phones. The outlets are typically located between the seats or on the side panels. If your group needs to power specific devices, please mention this when requesting a quote so we can assign a vehicle with adequate electrical capacity.

Yes, most of our newer-model buses offer onboard Wi-Fi. This feature is standard on full-size coaches and available on most minibuses. The Wi-Fi connection is suitable for email, web browsing, and social media. Streaming video or large downloads may be restricted to ensure stable service for all passengers. If reliable Wi-Fi is essential for your trip, please request it when booking so we can assign a vehicle with the best available connectivity.

Yes, all of our buses have space for luggage. Full-size coaches include undercarriage bays that can hold large suitcases, equipment cases, or coolers.

If your group is traveling with extra luggage, sports gear, or display materials, please mention this when requesting a quote so we can assign a vehicle with adequate storage capacity.

Common pickup and drop-off locations include school campuses, hotel parking lots, event venues, and downtown curb zones. Popular sites include the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, Luther Burbank Center, Railroad Square, and Coddingtown Mall. Many wineries and wedding venues have designated areas for oversized vehicles. For airport transfers, use the ground transportation zone at Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County Airport. If your destination has limited parking, the driver can unload passengers and wait at a nearby staging area until the return pickup time.

It’s best to book your bus as early as possible—ideally 2–6 months before your trip—to ensure availability and get the best rates. Peak seasons (spring and fall) fill up quickly due to school events, weddings, and wine tours. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be more expensive and offer fewer vehicle options. For large events or multi-day trips, reserve your bus at least three months in advance. If you need a bus on short notice, call us—we can often accommodate requests with a few days’ notice.
