Charter Bus Rentals in Baton Rouge

A charter bus is a large motorcoach that seats 40 to 56 passengers and is booked for exclusive group use, making it ideal for Baton Rouge school field trips, corporate events, sports team travel, or any outing where you want everyone on one vehicle. Unlike city buses with fixed routes, a charter bus follows your custom itinerary—whether that’s shuttling LSU fans to Tiger Stadium, carrying wedding guests to venues in the Garden District, or transporting students to the Louisiana State Capitol. Each bus rental includes a dedicated driver and private use of the bus for your chosen schedule.

Our fleet features top manufacturers like MCI, Prevost, and Van Hool, so you can expect comfortable seating, onboard restrooms, WiFi, power outlets, luggage bays, and optional amenities such as TVs with DVD players or USB charging ports at every seat. Charter buses are the best choice for moving large groups efficiently across Baton Rouge and beyond.

We operate one of the largest and most diverse fleets in Baton Rouge, including minibuses (15-35 passengers), full-size charter buses (40-56 passengers), party buses (10-50 passengers), sprinter vans (10-15 passengers), and school buses. All vehicles come from top manufacturers like Grech Motors, Battisti Customs, Midwest Automotive Designs, LGE Coachworks, Tiffany Coach Builders, MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, Krystal, Executive Coach Builders, and more. Whatever size group you have or amenities you need, we can match you with the perfect bus for your trip.

Charter bus pricing in Baton Rouge depends on several factors, but you can expect these general ranges: Full-size charter buses typically cost $145–$550+ per hour or $1,520–$5,000+ per day. Minibuses run $150–$450+ per hour or $1,520–$3,465+ per day. Party buses and sprinter vans vary from $160–$520+ per hour depending on capacity and amenities. School buses are usually the most budget-friendly option.

Final rates depend on trip distance, duration, time of year (LSU football season is peak), and which exact vehicle you choose. Call our team with your itinerary details for an instant quote tailored to your group’s needs.

The main factors that determine your charter bus rental price are: trip mileage (longer trips cost more), number of days/hours you need the bus, size and type of vehicle (larger buses with more amenities are pricier), and timing (weekends, holidays, and LSU game days may have higher demand). Additional options like requesting multiple pick-up points, adding extra luggage space for band equipment or tailgating gear, or booking last-minute can also impact the total cost. We’ll walk you through all choices to find the best value for your budget.

Every bus in our fleet comes equipped with comfortable reclining seats, strong air conditioning (crucial for Baton Rouge summers), overhead storage racks, and undercarriage luggage bays for suitcases or coolers. Most models feature free onboard WiFi, individual power outlets or USB charging ports, flat-screen TVs with DVD player, PA system, and an onboard restroom.

Optional upgrades include hardwood-style flooring, LED accent lighting, seatback tray tables, cup holders, window shades, and even parcel racks for band instruments or parade throws. If you need something specific—like ADA accessibility or extra luggage space—just ask when booking.

We provide transportation for every kind of group across Baton Rouge and Louisiana: school field trips to the Old State Capitol, LSU Tigers fan shuttles to Tiger Stadium, corporate commutes to downtown offices or ExxonMobil plants, wedding guest transfers to venues like The Estuary at the Water Campus, church retreats, Mardi Gras krewe floats, band competitions, youth sports tournaments, Greek life formals, and more. Whether you’re organizing a single-day outing or multi-day tour, we have experience handling logistics for groups of 10 to 10,000+.

Regular destinations include New Orleans French Quarter, Lafayette festivals, Lake Charles casinos, Shreveport conventions, Alexandria museums, and even out-of-state trips to Houston or Gulf Coast beaches.

Popular loading zones include hotel entrances along Constitution Avenue, designated bus bays at LSU’s Nicholson Drive, and surface lots near Raising Cane’s River Center downtown. For longer-term parking, Perkins Road Community Park and BREC facilities often accommodate oversized vehicles. When visiting attractions like the USS Kidd or museums, check ahead for motorcoach access points. Our team will coordinate with venue staff to ensure smooth pickups and drop-offs at every stop.

Your quote covers exclusive use of the bus and driver for the entire duration of your itinerary, all fuel costs, insurance, and standard amenities like WiFi, power outlets, AC, and restroom. Gratuity for the driver is appreciated but not required. Please note that tolls (such as Causeway Bridge), parking fees at venues (e.g., LSU reserved lots), and hotel room for driver on overnight trips are NOT included and should be arranged by the group organizer. We’ll spell out exactly what’s covered before you sign anything.

Start by counting every person who needs a seat—including chaperones, coaches, or plus-ones—and pick a vehicle with a few extra spots for comfort. For example, if you have 48 band members, book a 56-passenger charter bus so there’s room for instruments and cases. Smaller groups under 30 can use a minibus, while anything larger should go with a full-size coach. Consider luggage needs too; sports teams and wedding parties often require additional storage space below deck. Our staff will help you compare specs and floor plans to ensure no one is left standing.

Our fleet is one of the newest and most reliable in Louisiana, backed by 24/7 customer support and flexible booking policies.
