A charter bus is a large, professionally operated vehicle that is rented by a group for private transportation to and from destinations chosen ahead of time by the group. Unlike a public bus, which follows a set schedule and route, a charter bus goes exactly where and when the customer wants. It’s commonly used for trips such as corporate outings, school field trips, sporting events, weddings, or multi-day tours. The bus typically comes with a driver and may include various onboard amenities such as reclining seats, air conditioning, restrooms, and entertainment systems.

Most full-sized charter buses in Ontario are 40 to 45 feet long, about 8.5 feet wide, and 11 to 12 feet tall. They have a sleek, modern design with large tinted windows, smooth fiberglass or composite sides, and a slightly rounded front end. Common models include the MCI J4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and Setra S417—all of which are available in our fleet. Buses typically come in white, black, silver, or dark blue, but custom wraps and other colors are available upon request.

Most full-size charter buses seat 50 to 56 passengers, but smaller 18-, 20-, and 25-passenger minibuses are also available. Larger groups can easily be accommodated by booking multiple buses.

A charter bus (also called a coach bus or motorcoach) is a large, comfortable vehicle designed to transport 30 to 56 passengers on trips of any distance. A party bus is a smaller vehicle (10 to 40 passengers) with a spacious interior, wraparound seating, and special lighting and sound systems for celebrations. An entertainer bus (also called a sleeper coach) is similar in size to a charter bus but is custom-built with sleeping bunks, lounge areas, and kitchen facilities for touring musicians or performers. The main differences are seating capacity, interior layout, and amenities.

Most modern charter buses in Ontario come standard with reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful air conditioning, overhead parcel racks, luggage bays under the floor, and a restroom with a toilet and hand sanitizer. For entertainment, most buses have flat-screen monitors mounted above the aisle, DVD players, a sound system with a microphone, and optional Wi-Fi and 110V power outlets at each seat. Many newer coaches offer USB charging ports, Bluetooth audio, and video screens that can connect to a laptop or streaming device. Larger groups can request buses with additional monitors, PA systems, or custom seating layouts. If you need something specific—like tray tables, leather upholstery, or extra luggage space—just ask. We can match you with a bus that has exactly what you need.

A standard 56-passenger charter bus has enough luggage space for about one large suitcase and one carry-on bag per person. Larger items can be stored in the undercarriage bays, while smaller bags and personal items can be kept in the overhead compartments inside the cabin. If your group has additional luggage, equipment, or oversized items, let us know in advance so we can arrange for a larger bus or additional storage space.

A bus rental is one of the most comfortable ways to travel long distances with a group, since you can relax in a reclining seat, watch movies, socialize with other passengers, or simply enjoy the scenery passing by your window.

Yes, if your trip requires an overnight stay, you’ll need to arrange and pay for a hotel room for your driver. For safety reasons, the driver’s room should be provided at the same hotel as the group or within close proximity to the bus parking area. Most hotels offer discounted rates for bus drivers. For multi-day trips, you’ll also need to budget for the driver’s meals and any other incidental expenses.

Book early, especially for spring and summer events. Provide detailed pickup and drop-off locations—many venues have specific bus zones. Budget for tolls, parking, and driver gratuity (10–20% is standard). Ask about amenities like Wi-Fi and power outlets. For multi-day trips, you’ll need to provide the driver’s hotel room. Communicate any schedule changes promptly. Finally, review the contract and cancellation policy before signing.
