How much does it cost to rent a Knoxville charter bus?

The cost of a Knoxville charter bus rental varies based on a few different factors.

Should I tip my charter bus driver?

While not required, it is strongly recommended to tip your charter bus driver to thank them for a job well done. Anywhere from 5 to 10% of the cost of your bus rental in cash is the traditional tip amount for charter bus drivers.

 

Can we drink alcohol on the bus?

Yes, most of our transportation partners allow passengers 21 and older to consume alcohol onboard. Please let your reservation specialist know if you plan to drink while onboard so they can match you with an appropriate provider. There is a $250 cleaning fee if you leave behind a mess, so don’t forget to clean up after your group and dispose of any trash or bottles.  

 

I have a CDL, can I drive the bus?

No. For everyone’s safety and convenience, a licensed, professional charter bus driver who will handle all the driving for you is included with each rental. Each charter bus driver in our network has a clean background check and motor vehicle history record.
