FAQS
The cost of renting a shuttle bus in Reno typically ranges from $1,495 to $3,900+ for local, single-day trips, while multi-day or long-distance packages start around $4,500 and can exceed $7,500 depending on the itinerary. Pricing is based on either an hourly rate ($220–$395 per hour with a 5-hour minimum), a flat day rate ($2,200–$3,900+ per day), or a per-mile rate ($8.50–$13.50 per mile) for out-of-town charters. Final quotes depend on your exact pickup location, destination(s), trip duration, mileage, and current vehicle availability.
Several factors influence the price of your Reno bus rental, including the type and size of vehicle you choose (18-, 20-, 25-, or 56-passenger buses), the length and distance of your trip, the number of days you need the bus, and the time of year you’re traveling. Additional factors include the pickup and drop-off locations (local vs. long-distance), the number of stops on your itinerary, and any special requests such as upgraded amenities or custom branding. Multi-day trips that require overnight stays will also need to provide hotel accommodations for the driver. The best way to determine your exact cost is to call our reservations team with your trip details and get an instant, personalized quote.

You should book your Reno bus rental as early as possible to secure the best availability and pricing, especially if your trip falls during a busy season or overlaps with a major event. Spring and summer are peak times due to weddings, graduations, and festivals like the Reno Rodeo and Hot August Nights, while late summer sees high demand from Burning Man traffic through Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Last-minute bookings may face limited vehicle options and higher rates, so plan ahead and reserve your shuttle bus well in advance to ensure you get the vehicle you want at a price you can afford.
