Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Bus Rentals in Wheaton

Charter bus pricing in Wheaton typically ranges from $1,800 to $3,500+ per day or $250–$475+ per hour for a 56-passenger coach, while minibuses (18–25 seats) run $1,100–$2,400 per day or $197–$344 per hour, depending on the exact size, trip length, and time of year.

The main factors affecting your Wheaton charter bus rental price are the size of vehicle you book (minibus vs. full-size coach), the length and duration of your trip (mileage and number of days), how many days you'll be traveling, the time of year you travel, pickup location, and the level of demand at the time of booking. Additional expenses like tolls, parking fees at destinations such as the DuPage County Complex, Cantigny Park lots, or Wheaton College event parking, and driver hotel/lodging (if required) are typically not included in the base quote and must be paid separately.

You can easily get an instant quote by calling our team anytime at 331-716-2880 or using the online quote tool on our website. Just provide your trip itinerary (dates, pickup/drop-off locations, passenger count, and any special requests), and we’ll quickly give you an exact price with pictures of available vehicles. Our reservation specialists are available 24/7/365 to answer questions, help you compare options, and lock in your booking fast.

Your quote includes the base rental cost of the bus, a driver for the duration of your trip, and fuel. It does NOT include additional expenses such as tolls (e.g., Illinois Tollway I-88 Reagan Memorial Tollway), parking fees at your destination (such as Soldier Field’s Waldron Deck, United Center’s Lot H, or Navy Pier garages), or hotel/lodging for the driver if required. Those will either need to be paid separately during your trip or reimbursed to the company afterward. Be sure to clarify what is and isn’t included when you receive your quote.

It’s best to book your bus at least 4–6 months before your trip, especially if you’re traveling during busy times like spring and summer (April–June) or around major events such as Chicago Marathon weekend, Lollapalooza, Taste of Chicago, or events at the DuPage County Fairgrounds, Cantigny Park, or Wheaton College Homecoming. The earlier you book, the more choices you’ll have and the better price you’ll get. If you wait until the last minute, there may not be any buses left, or you might have to pay extra. Once you know your trip details, call us and we’ll lock in your reservation right away. A deposit is usually required to hold the bus, with full payment due before departure.
