Bus Rentals in Hollister, California

A charter bus is a large, professionally operated vehicle rented by a group for private transportation to and from destinations of their choice on a schedule they control. Unlike public transit or pre-scheduled tours, a charter bus operates exclusively for the hiring party—such as schools, businesses, sports teams, or event planners—making it ideal for trips requiring group cohesion, custom routing, and coordinated arrival times. Modern charter buses offer comfortable seating, climate control, and amenities suited for trips ranging from local outings to multi-day, long-distance travel.

Charter Bus Company Hollister offers a full fleet of modern buses available for rent anywhere in Hollister, San Benito County, and beyond. Our selection includes 15-, 20-, 28-, and 35-passenger minibuses from top manufacturers like Grech Motors, Turtle Top, and Champion—perfect for shuttles, corporate groups, or mid-size events. For larger groups, we offer 40-, 47-, 50-, 55-, and 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches built by Prevost, Van Hool, MCI, Setra, and Temsa—ideal for school trips, sports teams, or large event transportation. We also have 18- to 32-seat Sprinter-style vans and mini-coaches for smaller groups, and party buses that seat 20 to 40 with custom interiors for special events. Most vehicles come in multiple colors (white, black, silver, or custom wraps) and are equipped with the latest amenities.

Most modern Hollister charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful air conditioning, luggage bays, and overhead parcel racks. Standard amenities include free onboard Wi-Fi, flat-screen monitors with DVD/Blu-ray players, USB and 110V power outlets at each seat, and a PA system with a cordless microphone. Larger coaches (40+ passengers) have a clean, well-ventilated restroom mid-cabin. Additional options include Bluetooth audio, auxiliary video inputs (HDMI), and custom headrest covers. Premium coaches offer leatherette upholstery, color-adjustable LED lighting, forward/rear-facing seating, and optional tables for four. Exterior color choices include white, black, silver, or custom wraps. All vehicles are cleaned and sanitized before each trip.

Yes, all our Hollister charter buses have ample luggage space for groups traveling with bags, equipment, or personal items. Full-size motorcoaches (40–56 passengers) feature large undercarriage luggage bays that can hold one standard suitcase per passenger, plus additional items like duffel bags or equipment cases. Inside the cabin, overhead parcel racks run the length of the coach for carry-on bags, backpacks, or smaller items—typically one carry-on per person. For most trips, each passenger can bring one larger bag for the luggage bay and one smaller bag for the overhead compartment. If your group has oversized items—such as sports gear, musical instruments, or display materials—let us know in advance so we can recommend a vehicle with extra storage capacity. Minibuses (15–35 passengers) have smaller rear cargo areas and overhead racks suitable for light luggage but may not accommodate large suitcases. We’ll make sure your bus has the right amount of storage for a comfortable, clutter-free ride.

Several factors can affect the cost of a charter bus rental in Hollister, including the size and type of vehicle, the distance and duration of the trip, the time of year, and any additional amenities or special requests. Larger vehicles like full-size motorcoaches generally cost more than smaller minibuses, but the price per passenger may be lower for bigger groups. Longer trips that require more miles or multiple days will also be more expensive, especially if an overnight stay for the driver is required. Peak travel seasons, such as spring and summer, can lead to higher prices due to increased demand. Additional factors like tolls, parking fees, and custom branding or wraps can also impact the final cost. Local events, such as the Hollister Independence Rally or major sporting events, may also affect pricing and availability.

Charter Bus Company Hollister is a reputable company to book a charter bus from because we have years of experience providing reliable, professional, and high-quality transportation services to groups of all sizes. Our fleet includes modern vehicles equipped with the latest amenities, and our team is available 24/7 to assist with planning, booking, and customer support.

It’s best to book your Hollister charter bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rates, especially during peak seasons like spring and fall. Summer weekends, holidays, and dates overlapping with major local events (such as the Hollister Independence Rally or high school sports tournaments) tend to book up quickly. For routine trips—such as corporate shuttles, wedding transportation, or school outings—securing your reservation several months ahead gives you the widest selection of vehicles and allows time to finalize details. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be subject to limited availability and higher prices. If you’re planning a trip with less than a month’s notice, contact us anyway—we’ll do our best to accommodate your group and find a suitable vehicle.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically a percentage of the total rental cost and can be paid by credit card, check, or ACH transfer. The remaining balance is due before the trip, usually 7 to 14 days prior to departure. For last-minute bookings made within two weeks of the trip date, full payment may be required upfront. Our team will provide a clear payment schedule and invoice outlining all charges and due dates. We accept most major credit cards, business checks, and electronic payments for your convenience. If your organization requires special billing arrangements or needs to submit payment through a procurement system, let us know in advance so we can accommodate your process.

Your quote includes the rental of the bus, driver’s time, fuel, and standard amenities (Wi-Fi, power outlets, A/V system, restroom). Not included: tolls, bridge fees, parking, and driver’s hotel on multi-day trips. You’re responsible for these additional expenses. For example, parking at SAP Center is $25–$40, Levi’s Stadium $50–$120, PayPal Park $30–$60, and Oracle Park $40–$80—rates vary by lot and event. Ask your venue about bus parking fees. If your itinerary incurs tolls (e.g., Hwy 152, Hwy 101 bridges), those will be added to your final bill. Multi-day trips requiring a driver overnight: you must book and pay for a hotel room—most groups use their group rate. Any special requests (custom wrap, extra A/V, onboard host) will be itemized on your quote. If you have questions about what’s included, ask your reservation specialist—they’ll review every line item before you sign.
