Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Bus Rentals in Salt Lake City

The cost of renting a charter bus in Salt Lake City typically ranges from $1,600 to $3,800 per day or $197–$519 per hour, depending on the size of the vehicle, length of the trip, and other factors. Minibuses generally cost $1,200–$3,100 per day, while full-size 56-passenger coaches run $1,900–$4,500+ per day. You’ll pay either an hourly rate (with a 5-hour minimum), a daily rate, or a per-mile rate, depending on the details of your trip.

Charter bus pricing is based on several key factors: the size and type of vehicle you need (minibus vs. full-size coach), the number of passengers, the total mileage or number of days/hours required, the time of year (peak demand seasons like ski trips or convention weeks can increase rates), and any special amenities requested (like WiFi, power outlets, or upgraded seating). Multi-day and long-distance trips will be quoted either per day or per mile, whichever is most cost-effective for your itinerary. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver hotel/lodging are not included in the base rate.

Your quote includes the charter bus rental, driver, fuel, and selected onboard amenities. It does NOT include tolls, parking fees, or hotel/lodging for the driver on overnight/multi-day trips—those expenses are billed separately or arranged by the customer. Gratuity for the driver is not included but is recommended (standard is 10–20%).

You should book your Salt Lake City bus rental at least 4–6 weeks in advance to secure the best availability and pricing. If your trip falls during a busy period—such as ski season (November–April), major conventions like Outdoor Retailer or FanX, university events, or large weddings—it’s smart to reserve vehicles 2–3 months ahead. Last-minute bookings are accepted if equipment is available, but selection may be limited and rates can be higher due to demand.
