Charter Bus Rentals in San Jacinto

A charter bus is a large vehicle that groups rent for private transportation to and from specific destinations. Unlike public buses with fixed routes, charter buses follow custom schedules based on your itinerary. They come with cushioned seats, overhead storage, undercarriage luggage bays, and often amenities like Wi-Fi or TVs. People use them for field trips, sports events, corporate outings, weddings, or any trip where everyone needs to travel together. When you book a charter bus, you get exclusive use of the bus and driver for your entire trip.

We have one of the largest fleets in Riverside County, with minibuses (18–35 seats), full-size charter buses (40–56 seats), and specialty vehicles like entertainer coaches or executive sprinter vans. All major brands are represented—Prevost, Van Hool, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Grech, Starcraft, Turtle Top, Diamond, ElDorado, Forest River, Champion, Collins, Thomas Built, Blue Bird, IC Bus, and more—so we can handle any job from a small youth group at Valley-Wide Recreation Center to a 1,000-person corporate shuttle for Soboba Casino Resort.

Charter bus prices in San Jacinto typically range from $150 to $350 per hour depending on bus size, trip length, and time of year. A one-day local rental might cost $1,200–$2,000 while a weekend wedding shuttle could be $2,500–$4,000 total. Long-distance trips are usually quoted by mile ($5–$8 per mile) or day ($1,400–$2,400 per day) for anything going overnight to Las Vegas, San Diego, or Santa Barbara.

Major factors include total trip distance, number of days/hours needed, bus size/type, and seasonality. Peak demand periods like spring break, summer camps, or fall sports playoffs may see higher rates due to limited availability. Extra amenities (restroom, Wi-Fi, leather seats) can add cost, as can deadhead mileage if pickup/drop-off is far from main depots in Riverside or Hemet. Last-minute bookings sometimes pay more than reservations made weeks in advance.

Standard features include reclining cloth seats, individual reading lights, climate control, PA system, radio/CD player, and ample luggage space above and below. Most minibuses have USB charging ports and basic audio/video screens. Large coaches offer flat-screen TVs with DVD/Blu-ray, onboard restroom, power outlets at every row, Wi-Fi hotspot, and optional upgrades like leather upholstery, hardwood-style flooring, or custom branding for corporate clients. ADA-accessible lifts available upon request.

We serve school districts (SJUSD, Hemet USD), youth sports teams (San Jacinto Tigers, SoCal Coyotes), church retreats, wedding planners, casino day-trippers, corporate commuters, political rallies, concert promoters, film production crews, and more. Regular clients include Mt. San Jacinto College athletics, Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians events, Diamond Valley Lake fishing tournaments, and Ramona Pageant cast shuttles. No group is too small or too large—we move everything from a single scout troop to a parade float escort convoy.

Primary service area covers all of San Jacinto city limits plus surrounding communities like Hemet, Valle Vista, Winchester, Nuevo, Homeland, Idyllwild, and Menifee. Frequent runs to Riverside, Moreno Valley, Perris, Banning, Beaumont, and Palm Springs. Long-distance charters anywhere in Southern California including Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, Inland Empire, Coachella Valley, Big Bear, Lake Arrowhead, Temecula wine country, and Joshua Tree. Out-of-state trips to Nevada or Arizona available on request.
