We calculate each charter bus rental quote based on your trip’s pickup location, drop-off location, number of passengers, type of bus requested, trip duration, mileage, and any special amenities or requests. Additional factors like tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging may also affect the final price. You’ll receive a detailed, all-inclusive quote that covers exactly what you need with no additional fees.

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to book your reservation. This deposit is typically due at the time of booking and is applied toward the total cost of your rental. The remaining balance must be paid in full before your trip departs. Our team will provide specific payment terms and deadlines when you receive your quote.

The final payment for your Cambridge charter bus rental is due before the trip begins. Specific payment deadlines will be outlined in your contract, but full payment is generally required 14 to 30 days prior to your departure date. If you book less than a month in advance, the full amount may be due immediately. Our team will provide clear instructions and payment options when you receive your quote.

Yes, driver gratuity is included in your charter bus rental quote from Charter Bus Company Cambridge. We automatically add a standard tip—typically 10–20% of the total fare—to ensure your driver is compensated fairly. If you feel your driver provided exceptional service, you’re welcome to offer an additional cash tip at the end of your trip, but it’s not required. Your quote will clearly itemize all charges, including gratuity, so there are no surprises.

Short-term loading and unloading are allowed in Central and Kendall Squares, but drivers must remain with the vehicle at all times.

Always check local regulations and plan ahead to avoid fines or towing.
