Learn More About Charter Bus Company Cambridge
What is a charter bus?
A charter bus is a large vehicle rented by a group to travel together on a schedule they choose. It has rows of cushioned seats, overhead storage, and a bathroom at the back. People use charter buses for field trips, sports teams, weddings, corporate events, and church outings because it’s cheaper and easier than everyone driving separate cars. The group decides where the bus goes and when it stops. Charter buses are different from public buses because they don’t follow fixed routes—they go wherever the renter wants.
What types of buses does Charter Bus Company Cambridge offer in Cambridge?
We have minibuses (18–35 passengers), full-size charter buses (40–56 passengers), and specialty vehicles like entertainer coaches or sprinter vans for small VIP groups. All models come from top brands such as Prevost, Van Hool, Setra, Temsa, MCI, and Blue Bird. You can request specific features like Wi-Fi, power outlets, TV screens, leather seats, extra luggage space, or even custom branding on the outside. If you need something unusual—like an all-black executive shuttle or a double-decker—we’ll find it.
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus in Cambridge?
Bus rentals in Cambridge typically cost between $1,200 and $3,000 per day depending on size, amenities, and mileage. Short trips inside Boston or Somerville might be as low as $200–$300 one-way, while an all-day wedding shuttle could run $1,500+. Weekend rates are higher than weekdays. Big events like Harvard-Yale Game or Head of the Charles Regatta get booked months early and may have surcharges. Use our instant quote tool to see exact prices for your dates and itinerary.
What factors affect the price of a bus rental?
Main factors are total trip distance, number of days, bus size, and time of year. Longer trips cost more because of fuel and driver hours. Peak season (April–June for graduations, September–October for fall events) is more expensive than winter. Extra requests like multiple pick-up locations, overnight stays outside Cambridge, or premium amenities add to the base rate. Parking fees, tolls (like Tobin Bridge), and gratuity for the driver are not included in the quote—you pay those separately.
How do I book a bus with Charter Bus Company Cambridge?
Get an instant quote online by entering your trip details: date, times, pick-up address, drop-off address, and group size. Choose the bus type you want from the options shown. Review the pricing and click “reserve” to lock it in. You’ll get a contract to sign electronically and pay a deposit (usually 20%). The balance is due before departure. After booking, you can log into your account anytime to update passenger names, request changes, or download invoices.
What amenities are available on your buses?
Standard amenities include reclining cloth seats, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead racks, underfloor luggage bays, and a restroom. Most charters have flat-screen monitors with DVD player, PA system, USB charging ports, and free Wi-Fi hotspot. Premium models feature high-back reclining seats with footrests, hardwood-style flooring, LED accent lighting, 110V power outlets at every row, and extra-large luggage compartments. Executive coaches offer leather upholstery, fold-down tray tables, bottle holders, and optional coffee stations. Entertainer buses have bunks, lounge areas, kitchenettes, and showers.
What kinds of groups use charter buses in Cambridge?
We serve school field trips to museums, college sports teams, wedding parties, corporate commuter shuttles, religious retreats, political rallies, and band tour logistics. Harvard and MIT student organizations book weekend getaways; biotech companies run employee shuttles from Alewife; bridal couples arrange guest transportation between ceremony and reception venues. Summer camps go to Drumlin Farm, youth hockey teams travel to away games, and activist groups march on Beacon Hill—all using charter buses.
Where does Charter Bus Company Cambridge provide service?
We cover all of Cambridge (Harvard Square, Central Square, Kendall Square, Porter Square, West Cambridge) plus surrounding areas like Somerville, Medford, Arlington, Belmont, Watertown, Allston/Brighton, and downtown Boston. Regular destinations include Logan Airport, TD Garden, Fenway Park, Seaport District, Hynes Convention Center, and South Station. Long-distance charters go anywhere in New England—Worcester, Springfield, Providence, Manchester NH, Hartford CT—or even NYC and Washington DC for special events.
How do I get a quote or contact customer support?
Use the online quote form on our website for fastest results. For complex itineraries or last-minute changes, call the 24/7 hotline listed at the top of every page. Live agents respond to emails within one hour during business hours. Once you’re a client, you get a dedicated account manager who handles all questions and emergencies before, during, and after your trip. Customer satisfaction ratings are tracked publicly and we average 4.9 stars across thousands of reviews.
What should I know about bus parking in Cambridge?
Large buses cannot park on most residential streets or in small commercial lots. Designated drop-off zones exist near Harvard Yard (Johnston Gate), MIT (77 Mass Ave), and major hotels but the bus must move after unloading. Overnight parking options include Alewife MBTA garage, CambridgeSide mall, or pre-arranged spaces at venue loading docks. Charter buses are not allowed inside Logan Airport terminals—use the Ground Transportation Center instead. Always check with your destination ahead of time to avoid tickets or towing.
What’s included in a quote? Are tolls and parking included?
Your quote covers the bus, driver’s wages, fuel, insurance, and standard amenities. It does NOT include road tolls (Mass Pike, Sumner Tunnel), bridge fees, parking permits, hotel room for driver if overnight, meals for driver, or optional gratuity (recommended 10–15%). Any incidental expenses incurred during the trip will be billed to you at cost afterward. We provide estimated totals for common routes but exact amounts depend on real-time conditions. Clients are responsible for reserving and paying for any special event staging areas or security escorts required by authorities.
How do I choose the right bus for my group?
Match the passenger count to the seating capacity: minibuses for 20–30 people, full-size coach for 40–56, double booking or staggered shuttles if over 100. Consider luggage needs—band equipment or sports gear requires extra bay space. For trips longer than one hour, request restrooms and Wi-Fi. Corporate clients prefer black-on-black executive package; schools and camps are fine with basic cloth interiors. Weddings often ask for white exterior and ribbon decorations. If anyone has mobility issues, specify an ADA lift-equipped vehicle. Tell us your priorities and we’ll recommend the best fit.
