However, you can refer to our pricing guide for an estimate and a breakdown of the factors that go into your rental quote. Time of year, bus types, amenities, and distance will all affect your quote total.
You can get a quote for your Atlanta bus rental by calling our 24-hour team at 404-474-7769. We’ll need your itinerary, head count, amenity preferences (if any), and number of buses you might need to calculate an accurate quote.

Fuel
Processing fees
Your rental quote will not include:
Overnight accommodations for your bus driver (required if your trip spans multiple days)

We can pair you with a variety of bus types, some of the most common being a 56-passenger charter bus, a 20- or 25-passenger minibus rental, or a 12-passenger sprinter van rental with a driver. If you think your group might need a bus that we don’t include on our site, just let us know when you call to book.
All buses will have air conditioning to beat the Georgia heat, reclining seats to help you relax, and some overhead storage areas to help minimize clutter.

Regular pit stops on the road will be arranged between you and your driver en route.

If a mess is left behind, you may be subject to an additional cleaning charge.
Passengers who are 21 years of age or older may bring alcohol onto the bus. If you’d like to drink on your bus, let your reservation specialist know so that all proper protocols can be in place for a safe trip.
Charter bus parking availability will vary greatly depending on where you’re going. We recommend looking for large, open surface lots with lots of space or parallel street parking.
In Atlanta, the Georgia World Congress Center Marshalling Yard is often one of the easiest lots for buses to get into and out of. You can also refer to our blog for charter bus parking tips at historic sites and arts & culture destinations.
Your bus driver can also drop you off at a venue, wait at your hotel, and return to pick you up when you’re ready.
If you’re unsure, we always recommend calling a venue before your trip to ask where the best bus parking area is. We are not responsible for finding bus parking.
We’ll always work to accommodate changes, but it will become more difficult to edit your itinerary as your trip gets closer. If you need to make a change, please call your reservation specialist as soon as possible.
If you cancel more than 14 days before your start date, you won’t need to pay for your full balance; however, we won’t be able to return your 10% deposit.
If you cancel fewer than 14 days before your start date, we won’t be able to provide a refund for your trip, and you will still be responsible for paying in full.
