Before You Book
Instead of worrying about last-minute surprises, your upfront online quote includes your private vehicle, a driver, and full mileage or hourly coverage for your custom itinerary! Outside expenses like parking permits, highway tolls, or overnight hotel rooms on long-distance trips are paid separately so your pricing stays 100% transparent.

What Affects Your Price
With Charter
Fill out one quick form to compare TONS of different bus types and see how vehicle size impacts your rate! An 11- to 14-passenger sprinter van or a compact 18-passenger minibus for a quick shuttle down Powell Boulevard will naturally cost less than a 15- to 50-passenger party bus loaded with LED lighting and wraparound leather seating. Meanwhile, a full-size 56-passenger charter bus with an onboard restroom, WiFi, and undercarriage luggage bays carries a higher base rate but often delivers the lowest cost per person for large rosters. You choose the exact bus that fits YOUR headcount and YOUR budget!
On Charter
The pickup and drop-off cities on your itinerary play a big role in your quote due to "deadhead" mileage, which is the distance a bus travels empty from its home depot to reach your group! Because our network spans Gresham, Portland, Beaverton, Hillsboro, and all of Oregon, you get connected with a network of independent operators already stationed near your starting point to keep those extra positioning costs down.
Charter
For overnight or multi-day trips out of Gresham, you'll also need to provide a private, comfortable hotel room so your driver can rest up before the next leg.
Start your trip on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday if your schedule is flexible, as mid-week rentals almost always feature lower hourly rates and shorter minimums! Friday nights, Saturdays, and Sundays see the highest demand for private events, winery tours, and concert shuttles, which pushes weekend pricing slightly higher.
Ways to Save
Ride on a weekday. Weekday hourly rates in the table start below weekend rates for most buses, and Sunday through Thursday typically run the lowest rates.
Fill the seats you pay for. A bigger bus costs more per hour but less per person: a full 56-passenger charter bus starts under $4 per person, per hour.
Book early. Booking early gives you the widest choice of buses for your date.
Keep your pickups together. Every extra pickup adds time on the clock, so one meeting spot keeps the hours, and the price, down.
