Charter Bus Rentals Gardena, California

Charter bus rates vary significantly based on several factors, but generally range from $197–$519 per hour or $1,600 – $3,800 per day. You’ll pay either an hourly, daily, or mileage-based rate depending on your trip details, plus additional expenses like driver accommodations and tolls. Minibuses cost less than full-size coaches.

Example #1: A manufacturing company in Gardena is sending 40 employees to a three-day training seminar at the Long Beach Convention Center. They need a 56-passenger charter bus to handle both people and luggage, with daily shuttles between their hotel and the venue. The company was quoted $5,100 for a three-day rental and tipped the driver 15%. Final cost including gratuity: $5,865

Example #2: A local high school band booked a coach bus to perform at a weekend competition in San Diego. Traveling with 36 students, five chaperones, and bulky instruments, they required a full-size bus with extra storage. Their two-day package cost $3,400, and the director added a 10% tip. Final cost including gratuity: $3,740

Example #3: A youth soccer team needed round-trip transportation to a tournament in Bakersfield. With 15 players, two coaches, and gear bags, they selected a 25-seat minibus. The one-day trip totaled $1,900, and parents contributed an additional 15% gratuity. Final cost including gratuity: $2,185

Example #4: An area church organized a senior outing to the Getty Center. Twenty members rode together on a compact minibus. Their day-rate charge was $1,600, and the group provided a $200 cash tip at the end of the excursion. Final cost including gratuity: $1,800

Several variables affect your final price: trip length (miles or hours), number of days, bus size, and time of year. Multi-day trips require covering driver hotel room costs. Additional expenses may include tolls, parking fees, and mandatory driver gratuity (standard is 10–20%). Peak demand during holidays or major events—like LA Marathon, Pride Parade, or Dodgers games—can raise rates.
