What Affects Your Price
6 Factors That Affect Nashville Charter Bus Prices
Fill out our 30-second online quote tool and you'll see rates tailored to the exact details of your Music City itinerary! Because Charter
Factor 1: The Type of Bus
You don't have to pay for a 56-passenger charter bus if a compact 20-passenger minibus or sprinter van fits your group! With TONS of different bus types and party buses to compare in one search, you choose the exact size and amenities that match YOUR budget.
Factor 2: How Far and How Long You Travel
Charter
Factor 3: When in the Year You Travel
Ready to compare rates for a busy spring bachelorette weekend, a summer festival at Ascend Amphitheater, or an autumn kickoff? Rates rise from April through June and during major concerts, while winter months like January and February usually offer the lowest Nashville bus prices!
Factor 4: Your Starting City
With one quick search on Charter
Factor 5: Long Days and Your Driver's Hotel
It pays to know federal rules when planning a multi-day tour to Memphis or the Great Smoky Mountains: charter bus drivers can drive up to 10 hours before requiring an 8-hour break! For overnight trips, you'll need to provide a budget-friendly hotel room (typically a 3-star hotel or better) so your driver stays rested. If your itinerary requires non-stop overnight driving down I-40, the team can arrange a two-driver relay package for you!
Factor 6: Which Day You Ride

Ways to Save
Top 5 Ways to Save on Your Nashville Charter Bus Rental
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.
Ask about less time. Standard minimums apply, but call us at (865) 500-6518 and we can often set up less time, a one-way, split time or a custom package.
