  • Is there a discount for renting more then one bus?

    The cost of your trip is based on the itinerary that was given to us by the group organizer. If there are additional hours added to the trip, you will be responsible for covering those costs.
  • If I don't need the bus for the whole day do I still need to pay for it all day?
    Typically, we have a 4 hour minimum on our buses. However, we may offer a transfer rate if you have a one-way short trip (i.e. Airport Transfer).
  • Do I pay for parking or tolls?
    Parking, bridge tolls and road tolls are not included in your quote and are the responsibility of the customer.
  • Do I need to tip the driver?
    You are not obligated to tip a driver, but we recommend that if you are satisfied with your service, you do so. Although you may prefer to tip the driver in person, we suggest that you include the tip at the time of your charter payment. By including the tip at that point, you can avoid carrying this cash with you; we can tip the driver on your behalf after your trip.
