The final cost of your Stamford bus rental will depend on several key factors: the number of passengers traveling, the type of bus you select (minibus vs. full-size coach), the total mileage and duration of your trip, the time of year (peak season vs. off-season), and any additional amenities requested (such as WiFi, power outlets, or onboard restrooms). Multi-day trips that require overnight stays will also incur additional charges to cover driver accommodations.

You can also use our online quote form to get started, but speaking with an agent directly is the quickest way to lock in your rate.

Your quote includes the base rental fee for the bus and driver, plus fuel, tolls, and mileage charges based on your itinerary. It does NOT include gratuity for the driver (typically 10–20%), parking fees at venues, or hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. Once you receive your quote, there are no hidden fees—everything is clearly itemized so you know exactly what you’re paying for before you sign your contract.

You should book your Stamford bus rental at least 4–6 weeks in advance to ensure availability and secure the best pricing. Demand is especially high during peak travel seasons such as spring (April–June) and fall (September–November) when schools, weddings, and corporate events are in full swing. Last-minute bookings may be subject to limited vehicle selection and higher rates, so it’s always best to reserve your bus as early as possible. Once you’ve signed your contract and paid the deposit, your vehicle is guaranteed for the date of your trip.
