No — Auroracocharterbusrentals.com is a comparison and referral website. In practical terms, that means you use it to compare vehicles and pricing from a network of independently owned bus companies serving the Aurora area, and the transportation itself is carried out by those independent operators. You get more options and faster pricing than you would by calling a single local company, and the bus that shows up on your trip is operated by a carrier confirmed to you at booking.
You fill out one form or make one call to 720-499-1150 and get more options and different price points than you would ever pull together by reaching out to local companies one at a time. Instead of spending an afternoon on hold or waiting on callbacks, you see vehicles and rates in seconds, and providers in the network are competing for the booking. That competition works in your favor.
The time you would have spent calling around goes back to planning the actual trip.
An independently owned transportation company serving Aurora. Once you fill out a quote, you move over to a national booking platform where you choose the vehicle that suits the trip — the size, the amenities, the price point that works for your group. What you are selecting there is a vehicle and a price, not a company off a list.
The specific transportation company assigned to the booking is confirmed to you after the reservation is complete.
Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the form on this site with your trip details — pickup location, destination, group size, and timing — or call 720-499-1150 to go through it with someone. Either way, you are taken to a search results page on a national booking company's website. That booking company partners with independent operators serving the Aurora area, and right there on their site you can browse available vehicles, review pricing, and book the bus you want.
What you are choosing is a vehicle and a price — the booking company handles the rest.
Your pickup city, where you are going, how many people are riding, and how many hours you need the bus. The more detail you give — your stops in order, your start and end times, how much luggage the group is bringing, and any amenities that matter — the more accurate the quote comes back and the better the deal you can find. A complete itinerary gets priced correctly the first time.
Right away — there is no waiting on a callback. As soon as you submit the form, you go straight to the search results page and see quotes on the booking company's website. Pricing and available vehicles are there immediately.
If you would rather talk through the trip with someone, call 720-499-1150 and a live agent will go through it with you and help put together the right package.
The earlier the better on a popular date, and a larger group or a specific vehicle type should be locked in further out. That said, because Auroracocharterbusrentals.com puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving the Aurora area rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable — a single company might tell you no, but a network of companies is a different conversation entirely. Submit the request or call 720-499-1150 even on short notice.
You may be surprised what is available.
All of those can be requested. Hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a set block of time — the bus stays with you through the itinerary. A one-way transfer moves a group from one point to another.
A round trip brings them back. A multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several locations along the way, like a brewery crawl or a wedding shuttle loop. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one calendar day, like a group traveling to a tournament or a destination event.
Which format fits depends on the trip itself, and a multi-stop or overnight itinerary should be laid out in full with the request so it comes back priced correctly from the start.
Charter Bus Pricing
A charter bus costs $205–$385+ per hour on weekdays, $225–$410+ per hour on weekends, and $1,650–$2,950+ per day. Those are real planning ranges, not a flat price — what your trip costs inside that spread depends on the bus type, the date, the route, and how long the vehicle is in service. There are different packages, and a number of factors move a quote in either direction, so the range is a starting point rather than your number.
Fill out the form online and see pricing for your actual trip in seconds, or call 720-499-1150 — going through the itinerary with someone can surface better pricing and packages than the form alone.
It depends on the trip, and all three are used. A short trip of a couple of hours is usually priced hourly — the clock runs from the time the bus is in service to the time it drops off. A trip that covers significant distance — roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark, or heading well out of the region — may carry a per-mile charge instead of stacked hours.
And a long day, generally around eight hours or more, often comes back as a flat day rate simply because the vehicle is booked for most of the day and that structure is cleaner for everyone. Submitting the actual trip details is what determines which one applies to your itinerary.
Six things move the quote: the type and size of bus, how long it is booked for, the date and day of the week, the total distance and route, the number of stops, and how busy that date is locally. Sunday through Thursday prices lower than Friday and Saturday. Daytime trips price lower than those same evenings.
Booking the size the group actually needs — rather than over-booking capacity — keeps the hourly rate where it should be. And grouping riders into one or two pickup points instead of five or six cuts the hours on the clock before anyone reaches the main destination. In Aurora, summer weekends during peak festival and wedding season run tighter than any other stretch of the year, so flexibility on the date is the single most effective lever if the budget needs room.
About Charter Buses
A charter bus is a full-size passenger coach that a group hires exclusively for its own trip — its own route, its own schedule, its own stops — rather than riding a fixed public route shared with strangers. It is built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle, and a standard full-size coach seats roughly 40 to 56 people. The group goes where it needs to go, on the timetable it sets.
From the outside: a full-size coach body riding on dual rear axles, high tinted windows running the length of both sides, and a row of luggage bay doors along the lower panels beneath the floor. The exterior finish is usually white, silver, black, or a solid color, though some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics — so the coach that pulls up may not always look the same. Makes like the MCI J4500, Van Hool CX45, and Prevost H3-45 are common on the road and all share that same long, high-windowed profile.
Inside: forward-facing seats in pairs on either side of a center aisle, cloth or leather seat fabric depending on the make and model, overhead parcel racks running the full length of the cabin, and a restroom toward the rear. The interior is climate-controlled and quiet at highway speed.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead parcel racks and undercarriage baggage bays, WiFi, power outlets and USB charging ports, a PA system with wireless microphone, and flat-panel TV monitors. Features may include any combination of those depending on the make, model, and how the coach is equipped — which varies by vehicle and is confirmed during booking. Note the amenities that matter most to your group when you submit the trip details, since that narrows which vehicles come back in the results.
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common configuration on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and can be built to 60. The Van Hool CX45 is the same — 56 standard, up to 60.
The Prevost H3-45 also seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44. What changes the count on the same coach: extra-legroom seating and wheelchair positions each take seats out of the total.
Because Auroracocharterbusrentals.com works with a network of providers, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what is available for your date and route — submit the trip or call 720-499-1150 if the group needs a specific capacity confirmed before booking.
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle — four seats across per row, forward facing, one aisle straight down the middle. The row count drops on coaches built with extra legroom or a wheelchair position, since those configurations give up a row or part of one. Some coaches also tier the front rows slightly for the view over the driver's compartment, which does not change the count but changes how those seats feel.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. To put that in terms that matter when you are working out whether one fits somewhere — a parking space, a venue driveway, a hotel loop — that is roughly three cars parked end to end. Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, and those are used when the route or the venue makes the full-size coach difficult to maneuver.
The 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle across the industry.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers design overhead clearances for 12 feet. If you are checking whether a bus can reach a venue, get under a parking structure, or clear a gated entrance, 12 feet is the number to measure against. To picture it: a little taller than the first floor of a standard house.
Low-clearance garages, decorative archways, and some hotel porte-cochères are the places that come up most often as clearance concerns on a charter trip.
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road today are equipped with it. Whether a specific vehicle has it depends on how that coach is built out — onboard WiFi is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies. One thing worth setting expectations on: onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is designed for light use across a full coach — phones, messaging, and general browsing.
It is not built for 50 or 60 people doing heavy data work simultaneously. If your group needs WiFi, note it with the trip details when you submit the quote, since that filters which vehicles come back.
Yes — an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses, located toward the rear of the coach. It is there so a group does not have to make an unplanned stop on a long run, though most long-distance trips still build in a real rest stop along the way. Whether a specific vehicle includes one may vary, so note it with the trip details if it matters to the group.
That way the vehicles that come back are the ones that are actually equipped for the trip.
Yes — charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at every seat, some with a USB port built into the same outlet. This is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies by vehicle. In practical terms, a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run without anyone rationing battery.
Note it with the trip details if the group needs it, and that narrows the results to coaches that are actually set up for it.
Yes — in two places. Overhead parcel racks run the length of the cabin inside the coach, and undercarriage baggage bays sit beneath the floor along both sides of the bus. A full-size coach carries roughly 460 cubic feet of underfloor baggage space and around 100 cubic feet in the overhead racks.
Across a full 56-passenger load, that works out to roughly 8 cubic feet per person underneath and under 2 cubic feet overhead — in practice, about one checked-size bag each below plus one small carry-on above. What changes it: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay space, and bulky gear like instruments, sports equipment, or large event supplies takes the equivalent of several bags. State your luggage situation and any oversized items with the trip details so the right coach gets matched to the group from the start.
