Charter Bus & Minibus Rentals in Grand Prairie

A charter bus is a large vehicle rented by a group for private transportation to and from specific destinations. Unlike public buses, which run on fixed routes and schedules, charter buses operate according to the needs of the group that booked them. In Grand Prairie, people use charter buses for everything from school field trips to Six Flags Over Texas or Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark to church retreats at Loyd Park, corporate shuttles between offices in Dallas and Fort Worth, or wedding guest transport at venues like Ruthe Jackson Center. When you rent a charter bus, your group gets exclusive use of the bus and driver for the duration of your trip.

We have one of the largest fleets in Texas, with minibuses (18-35 passengers), full-size charter buses (47-56 passengers), entertainer coaches for band tours, and specialty vehicles like party buses or sprinter vans. All major manufacturers are represented including Prevost, Van Hool, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Blue Bird, Thomas Built, IC Bus, Grech, Executive Coach Builders, Tiffany, LGE, Grech Motors, Battisti Customs, and Midwest Automotive Designs.

No matter what kind of group you have, we can send a bus with the right size and features. Small groups love our 20-25 passenger minibuses for short trips around town. Large groups going to AT&T Stadium or Globe Life Field will want a 54-56 passenger motorcoach with restrooms and luggage bays. Bands and entertainers book our Prevost H3-45 VIP shell with slide-outs for weeks-long tours. If you need something custom, just ask—we’ve seen it all.

Charter bus pricing depends on several factors: the size/type of bus, trip distance, trip duration, time of year, and any special requests. Short local trips may be quoted by the hour (with a 4- or 5-hour minimum), while day trips to Austin or Houston are usually flat rates. Multi-day charters are priced per day plus mileage. For example, a single-day round trip from Grand Prairie to AT&T Stadium with a 56-passenger coach might cost $1,200-$1,800 depending on exact timing and availability. A weekend retreat to Possum Kingdom Lake could be $3,000-$4,000 total. The only way to get an exact price is to call 945-363-0970 with your itinerary details.

The biggest factors are total mileage, number of days, and bus size. Longer trips cost more because they use more fuel and require more driver hours. Larger buses (50+ seats) are more expensive than minibuses because they’re more expensive to purchase. Peak season (spring/summer) rates are higher due to demand from school trips, weddings, and sports events. Last-minute bookings may pay a premium if inventory is tight. Optional upgrades like Wi-Fi, DVD screens, or custom wraps can add to the base rate. Driver hotel rooms for overnight trips are not included and should be arranged by the client.

Standard amenities on most charter buses include cushioned reclining seats, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, and PA system. Restrooms are available on 40+ foot coaches. Entertainment options may include TV monitors with DVD player, CD/radio sound system, and USB charging ports. Many models offer free Wi-Fi hotspot and 110V power outlets at each row. Premium features like leather upholstery, hardwood floors, LED accent lighting, and rear lounge are available upon request. ADA-accessible lifts can be provided at no extra charge if requested in advance.

We serve every kind of group imaginable: schools (GPISD field trips, UIL competitions), youth sports teams (soccer, baseball, cheer), church congregations (Sunday shuttles, summer camp), corporate commuters (office park circulators), wedding planners (bridal party transport), concert promoters (artist runner vans), senior citizen outings (casino day trips), political rallies, parade floats, film production crew moves, and more. Recent clients include Dallas Baptist University athletics, Verizon Theatre backstage shuttles, Prairie Lights holiday volunteers, and KISS End of the Road Tour logistics.
