What do I pay when I rent a charter bus in Austin?

At Austin Charter Bus Company, we believe in straightforward, no-surprise pricing. Your custom quote is based on your trip details—think group size, travel dates, trip duration, and distance traveled across Texas. We’re happy to break down exactly what’s included and what’s not, so you can budget with confidence.

Your quote includes a private charter bus, an experienced driver, fuel, standard insurance for your protection, tolls (if applicable), and processing fees.
 

Your quote does not include, driver gratuity (optional, but encouraged), parking passes (especially for major Austin events or venues), or lodging for your driver (required on multi-day trips)
 

Need help estimating total costs? Check out our Austin pricing page to learn more or just ask our team for a breakdown based on your itinerary through Austin or across the Lone Star State.

Is a deposit required to book an Austin charter bus?

Yes. To officially reserve your bus, we require a non-refundable deposit equal to 10% of your total trip cost. This deposit holds your date, secures your vehicle, and gets everything rolling. The remaining balance is due closer to your departure.

Can I customize my Austin charter bus with a bus wrap?

Absolutely! Whether you’re promoting a SXSW activation, school campaign, or local Austin brand, we offer custom bus wrapping services. To make it happen, let your rep know at least two weeks in advance. You’ll need to reserve the bus for at least one week to allow time for application and removal. Our team will handle the logistics while your bus becomes a moving billboard around Austin.

What amenities come with my Austin charter bus rental?

Each bus in our Austin network is hand-picked for comfort, convenience, and style. While features vary by vehicle, here are a few amenities you can typically expect: plush, reclining seats, flat-screen TVs and DVD players, WiFi access, USB outlets or power strips, climate-controlled interiors and a PA system.

Need something specific—like onboard restrooms for a student group or extra luggage space for a music tour? Just let us know. We’ll match you with a bus that ticks all the boxes.

Can we bring food and drinks on board in Austin?

Yes, feel free to pack snacks, drinks, and even full meals for the ride! Alcohol is allowed too—as long as everyone drinking is 21 or older. Be sure to mention it during booking so we pair you with a charter bus company that permits alcohol onboard. Please keep in mind that a refundable cleaning deposit (typically around $250) may apply if spills or damage occur.

Austin’s Top Neighborhoods

Whether you're hunting for food trucks, art galleries, honky-tonks, or exploring local college towns —Austin's neighborhoods each have their own story to tell. Rent an Austin charter bus and explore these vibrant districts with the ease and flexibility your group deserves:

RAINEY STREET HISTORIC DISTRICT

Rainey Street proves you don’t need neon signs to have a great night out.
