Kirkwood Charter Bus Rentals

A charter bus is a large, full-size motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from specific destinations on a custom schedule. Unlike a public bus or pre-sold tour, a charter bus operates entirely at the direction of the group that hires it, making it ideal for events like corporate outings, school trips, weddings, sports team travel, or multi-day tours. Modern charter buses typically seat 40 to 56 passengers and offer amenities such as reclining seats, air conditioning, onboard restrooms, luggage bays, and entertainment systems.

Charter Bus Company Kirkwood offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets of buses in Kirkwood and the greater St. Louis area, including party buses, minibuses, school buses, and full-size motorcoaches from 15–56+ passengers. Our fleet includes vehicles from trusted brands like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Grech, Turtle Top, and Champion—so you can always get exactly the size and style of bus your group needs. We can accommodate any group size from 10 to 500+ passengers with vehicles in multiple colors (black, white, silver, custom wraps) and are happy to help you choose the best option for your trip.

Most full-size charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful air conditioning, onboard WiFi, 110V/USB power outlets, flat-screen DVD monitors, a PA system, and a restroom with hand sanitizer. Larger models have undercarriage luggage bays and overhead parcel racks for baggage. Many newer coaches offer Bluetooth audio, auxiliary video inputs, and upgraded upholstery. Minibuses typically feature forward-facing cloth or vinyl seats, strong HVAC, and optional WiFi or PA systems, but usually lack a restroom and have limited luggage space. Additional amenities can sometimes be arranged upon request.

Yes, full-size charter buses have significant luggage space both in overhead interior racks and in large exterior undercarriage bays. The typical 56-passenger coach can hold about one large suitcase per person below plus a carry-on bag above the seat. For trips requiring extra baggage—such as airport transfers, band equipment, or athletic gear—multiple bays are available. Minibuses offer limited luggage capacity, usually restricted to smaller bags stowed inside the cabin or in rear cargo areas. If your group has special baggage needs, such as oversized items or additional luggage, please mention this when booking so we can assign an appropriately sized vehicle or make special arrangements.

Several factors influence the cost of a charter bus rental in Kirkwood: the size and type of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), the total distance and duration of the trip, the time of year (peak seasons like spring and fall are more expensive), and any special amenities requested (WiFi, leather seats, etc.). Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging for overnight trips can also affect the final price. Major local events—such as St. Louis Cardinals or Blues games, festivals, or conventions—may impact availability and rates due to increased demand.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally at least 3 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rate. Spring and fall are peak seasons due to school trips, sports events, and weddings, so buses can sell out quickly. For major events or complex trips, booking 6 to 12 months ahead is recommended. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and offer fewer vehicle options.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to have your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30% of the total rental cost but may vary depending on the size and type of vehicle. The remaining balance is due 30 days before the date of your trip. For bookings made less than 30 days in advance, full payment is required upfront. We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, and corporate checks.
