Charter bus pricing is based on hours, mileage, or days, depending on your itinerary. Local Waukesha trips (e.g., shuttles to Milwaukee or Brookfield) are usually billed hourly with a minimum. Longer trips—like Chicago or Green Bay—are priced per mile or per day. We factor in deadhead (miles the bus travels empty), vehicle type, fuel, tolls, driver labor, and seasonality. Extras like parking, lodging, and custom wraps are additional. You’ll get transparent, all-inclusive pricing upfront.

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your reservation. This deposit is typically due when you sign the contract and can be paid by credit card, ACH transfer, or check. The remaining balance must be paid in full before your trip date. Our team will provide a clear payment schedule and send reminders as your departure approaches.

The final payment for your Waukesha charter bus rental is due before the trip begins. We’ll specify the exact deadline in your contract—typically 7 to 14 days prior to departure. This ensures all funds clear before service. You can pay the balance via credit card, ACH, or check. If you book last-minute, full payment is due immediately. Your reservation isn’t considered fully confirmed until the entire balance is paid.

Yes, standard driver gratuity (typically 10–20%) is included in your quote. However, if you feel your driver provided exceptional service, you’re welcome to tip extra in cash at the end of the trip. Additional gratuity is always appreciated but never required.

Yes, for overnight or multi-day trips, you are responsible for providing and paying for the driver’s hotel accommodations. The hotel should offer secure parking for the bus and be at least a two-star property. Most clients book the driver’s room at the same hotel as the group to simplify logistics. For longer trips, drivers may need separate rooms due to hours-of-service regulations. Contact us for specific lodging requirements.

No, your quote covers the bus, driver, fuel, and standard insurance, but not tolls or parking. Any tolls incurred during your trip will be added to your final bill.
