Charter Bus Orange works with many different bus companies, and each company has a few different rates. However, generally speaking, pricing is calculated per day, hour or mile depending on your trip details. Charter Bus Orange offers custom travel packages such as one-ways, roundtrips, hourlies and more, so we always do our best to match our clients with the right party bus rental option, especially larger groups with unique or difficult needs.
How Trip Distance and Time Affect Charter Bus Pricing
Party bus rentals in Orange are charged by day, mile, or hour, according to your needs. When it comes to single-day trips or short and sweet events like weddings and private group events, you’ll likely be charged an hourly rate. Charter Bus Orange does not impose a minimum number of hours on your Orange charter bus rental, but many party bus companies do, and prices will vary. Multi-day journeys or occasions like business conventions and private group events are typically priced by the day rather than by the hour. Large event transportation, such as transporting VIPs during the annual Los Angeles Auto Show over the course of a week, may include daily fees as well. It all just depends. Long-distance trips like a cross-country graduation bash from Orange County to NYC are usually calculated by the mile. That way, all of your group’s stops and overnight lodging accommodations for drivers and passengers will be included.
Booking an Orange Party Bus During Peak Season
Demand for Orange party buses and minibuses is usually at its highest during special travel times of the year. The months of April, May, and June see more party bus rentals thanks to school dances like proms and graduations, and wedding parties and events. If your group trip coincides with these events, expect higher prices. It also doesn’t hurt to consult your city’s event calendar to know exactly when large events like parades and marathons will occur in Orange. Reserving a bus for travel days near any big Orange events will likely increase bus rental rates.
Where Availability Is Low, Pricing Can Be High
The availability of charter bus rentals in your departure city can affect how much your bus costs. Groups of travelers picking up at a remote winery in Northern California or other sparsely populated destinations will likely experience higher rental costs because the closest buses to these areas are far away. If you request a last-minute pickup or dropoff in remote regions, the fees may also be higher to meet demand. Deadhead mileage, or mileage incurred with no passengers on board, can add to the final price. If your charter bus driver has to travel very far in order to arrive at your pickup or drop off points, this additional mileage will drive up your overall rate. To mitigate deadhead pricing, consider making a rental request through Charter Bus Orange, because we’re able to match you with the closest provider in our statewide network!
Orange Party Buses by Size
Finding the right type of party bus in Orange isn’t just about having the right amenities or pickup location for your next event or trip. Another factor is also having the right size of vehicle to meet your group’s needs, no matter how big or small your group is. When it comes to renting a bus in Orange or elsewhere in California, Charter Bus Orange is all about customization and offering a full range of options. Let’s take a look at a few different kinds of buses in our Orange network, from full-size motorcoaches to speedy sprinter van shuttles.
56-Passenger Charter Bus Rentals
Our 56 passenger charter buses are a preferred option for medium- and large-sized groups going to a corporate event. Charter buses usually come with reclining seats for passengers to get work done on the road, and can offer an alternative to rideshares to shuttle wedding guests to a venue. If you’re transporting an athletic group to their training camp for the weekend, request a bus with undercarriage storage and everyone will have plenty of space for their sports equipment. In addition, all of these are also equipped with premium sound systems that connect to devices for music on the way.
40- and 50-Passenger Charter Buses
The 40- or 50-passenger party bus rental is the ultimate chariot of luxury and space.

20- to 35-Passenger Minibus Rentals
If you’re a group of 20-30 people who need reliable shuttle transportation to and from conventions or meetings in or near the Anaheim Convention Center, a private minibus rental is perfect for you! And since minibuses come in various passenger capacities—from compact shuttles for 20, 24 and 25 guests to more medium-sized coaches that seat up to 30, 32, or 35—our experienced team of reservation experts will work to find you a bus that fits your passenger count and budget like a glove.

Cheaper Party Bus Rates
Weekend rates for Orange party bus rentals (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) tend to be a bit higher than weekday rates (Monday to Thursday). If you can arrange your travels for earlier in the week, consider planning a Tuesday or Wednesday night out to catch a special at your favorite local brewery. Smaller or intimate parties and trips may also benefit from being charged a lower hourly rate and a decreased minimum number of rental hours.
Save Money on Daytime Trips
Peak demand for party buses and minibuses usually revolves around evening hours and events, like a concert at the Observatory, a sporting event at the Honda Center or Anaheim Stadium, or an intimate wedding reception with a bar. During daytime hours or throughout the week when there’s less demand for party buses, the minimum rental limit may be lower and your price-per-hour may drop slightly. So if your group trip can happen when it’s light out, consider hosting a daytime outing rather than an evening celebration. You might find your party bus quotes cheaper.

Consult with our reservations team, who can add these additional fees to your trip quote if you need it.
How to Save Money on Party Bus and Charter Bus Rental Costs
Looking for ways to keep the cost of your charter bus rental low in Orange County? Charter Bus Orange has a few cost-saving tips that may come in handy as your finalize your trip budget:
- Finalized passenger count: Having a finalized count before making your rental request will ensure you won’t get overcharged for more passenger seats that aren’t needed. (If you are quoted for a 25-passenger minibus, for example, but actually only need 20, then you could have booked a 20-passenger minibus for a potentially more affordable rate.)
- Reserve a bus from a local transportation provider: By booking a bus near your location you avoid charges added for additional mileage your driver may take to get from the vehicle base to your pickup location. (This fee, known as deadhead mileage, can drive up the final cost.)
- Ask for a daytime rental: Avoid traveling in the evening hours, particularly Friday and Saturday nights, in order to get a cheaper rate.
- Limit how long you need your rental: Try to limit the duration of your trip to avoid costs associated with booking hotel accommodations for your driver or hiring a second driver. Booking multiple days will add to your overall rental price.
- Pick a venue with easy parking: Select a restaurant or event venue that includes free charter bus parking to save some money. (This tip can be tough to execute since not every establishment will have free charter bus parking.)
