Frequently Asked Questions About Coach Bus Rentals in Virginia Beach

FAQS

Virginia Beach Coach Bus Service offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets in Virginia Beach, so you’ll always find the right bus for your group. We have full-size 56-passenger charter buses from top brands like MCI, Van Hool, and Prevost—perfect for big groups heading to Kings Dominion or an Outer Banks beach trip. For smaller groups, choose a minibus that seats 15 to 35 people, built by Grech Motors, LGE Coachworks, Tiffany, Battisti Customs, or Executive Coach Builders. These are great for wedding shuttles at the Cavalier Hotel or corporate outings in Town Center. We also offer party buses (10-50 passengers), sprinter vans (10-15 passengers), and school buses, so whatever your itinerary or headcount, we’ve got a vehicle that fits.

Charter bus rental prices in Virginia Beach vary depending on the type of bus, how long you need it, and where you’re going. Most rentals cost between $150 and $300 per hour, or $1,600 to $4,500 for a full day. Minibuses are usually the cheapest option, while full-size coaches and party buses cost more. The best way to get an accurate price is to call our team at 948-356-8640 or use our online quote tool. Just tell us your headcount, travel dates, and itinerary details, and we’ll send you an instant quote in 30 seconds!

The biggest factors are the size and type of bus, how many hours or days you need it, and the distance you’re traveling. Longer trips—like a weeklong tour of Williamsburg, Richmond, and Charlottesville—will cost more than a simple roundtrip shuttle from the Oceanfront to the ViBe District. Peak season (spring/summer) is usually more expensive than winter. If you need multiple buses for a large event at the Virginia Beach Convention Center, that will increase your total cost. Amenities like WiFi, TVs, or custom wraps can also affect pricing. We recommend booking at least 3-6 months in advance to lock in the best rates.

Booking a bus with Virginia Beach Coach Bus Service is easy and fast. Start by calling our 24/7 reservations team at 948-356-8640 or filling out the online form on our website. Give us your trip details: headcount, pickup/drop-off locations, schedule, and any special requests. We’ll build a custom package and send you an instant quote. Review the offer, ask questions, and when you’re ready, sign the contract electronically. Once you confirm, your bus is locked in for your dates. Our team will stay in touch before, during, and after your trip to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Our fleet includes buses with every modern amenity you could want. Full-size coaches have reclining seats, climate control, overhead storage, underfloor luggage bays, restrooms, TVs with DVD players, and free WiFi. Some even have USB outlets at every seat and PA systems for tour guides. Minibuses offer similar features in a smaller package but usually don’t have a restroom. Party buses come with wraparound seating, color-changing LED lights, Bluetooth sound systems, and space to dance. Sprinter vans are great for quick trips and have comfortable seats, AC, and tinted windows. If you need something specific—like ADA accessibility or extra luggage space—just ask!

People rent buses for all kinds of reasons: weddings, corporate events, school field trips, sports team travel, concerts, church outings, military transportation, and more. We’ve handled everything from daily commuter shuttles for local businesses to bachelor party buses heading to the Oceanfront bars. Popular destinations include Neptune Park, First Landing State Park, Sandbridge Beach, Mount Trashmore, and the Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater. If you’re planning a multi-day trip to Washington DC or Charlotte NC, we can do that too.

Virginia Beach has several designated areas for charter bus parking and passenger loading/unloading. At the Oceanfront, there’s a bus loop at 19th Street near the Convention Center, and limited curbside space along Atlantic Avenue for quick drop-offs. For concerts or sports events, the Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater and Sportsplex have dedicated bus lots. If you’re visiting First Landing State Park or Mount Trashmore, there are oversized vehicle spaces in the main parking areas. Downtown and Town Center have fewer options, so plan ahead and check with your venue. Our team can help you map out the best spots based on your itinerary.

Your quote covers the cost of the bus, driver’s time, mileage, and fuel for the duration of your trip. It also includes standard amenities like AC, reclining seats, and onboard entertainment systems. Tolls, parking fees, and gratuity for the driver are not included and should be budgeted separately. If you request optional upgrades—such as WiFi routers, PA systems, or custom wraps—they will be itemized in your proposal. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. We believe in transparent pricing and will explain every line item before you sign.

Yes, we offer both one-way and interstate charter bus rentals.
