Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to rent a bus in New Orleans, Louisiana?

+

The cost of a charter bus rental in New Orleans depends on several factors like the size of vehicle, how far you travel, and the time of year. In general, you can expect to pay $1,050 to $3,800 per day for a full-size charter bus or $135 to $445 per hour for a sprinter van. These ranges include your driver, fuel, and insurance.

For a quote built around your exact itinerary, group size, and budget, call our team anytime at 251-426-1370.

What amenities are available on each of our bus types in New Orleans, Louisiana?

+

Every full-size charter bus rental includes strong air conditioning, plush reclining seats, TVs, a PA system, WiFi, power outlets, and an onboard restroom-perfect for long-distance trips or keeping students comfortable on a swamp tour. Minibuses offer similar features in a more compact package, making them ideal for corporate events or wedding shuttles. If you're looking for something special, we can provide ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts and extra aisle space. You'll get the perfect balance of comfort and convenience for navigating busy areas like the French Quarter, Canal Street, or LSU Tiger Stadium.

What types of vehicles do you offer in New Orleans, Louisiana?

+

New Orleans Charter Bus offers a wide range of vehicles to fit any group size or budget. You can choose from minibus options holding 15 to 35 passengers, full-size motorcoaches with seats for 40 to 56 passengers, sprinter vans for 6 to 15 passengers, and even special event vehicles like party buses. Every vehicle comes with a driver, comfortable seating, air conditioning, and ample storage space for luggage-perfect for navigating the heat and humidity of South Louisiana.

We'll help you find the right vehicle for your exact headcount and itinerary so you can travel comfortably through the French Quarter, up and down St. Charles Avenue, or anywhere else your group needs to go.

What types of events & destinations do you frequently serve in New Orleans, Louisiana?

+

New Orleans Charter Bus provides transportation for everything from Mardi Gras krewes and French Quarter festivals to school trips at the Audubon Nature Institute and campus tours of Tulane University. We frequently handle airport transfers into the New Orleans International Airport, cruise transportation to the Port of New Orleans, and hotel shuttles for large conventions at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center-where we stage at 900 Convention Center Blvd. We also provide wedding transportation to traditional venues like The Chicory and Southern Oaks Plantation, as well as destination weddings in the French Quarter, plus corporate travel for Ochsner Health and LCMC Health. Because we operate throughout Louisiana, we also handle Baton Rouge charter bus rentals for LSU game days at Tiger Stadium and regional sports tournaments at the Shrine on Airline.

How far in advance should I book my New Orleans, Louisiana bus rental?

+

As a general rule of thumb, it is recommended to book your charter bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure you get exactly what you need. New Orleans has a busy festival calendar, and major events like Mardi Gras (February/March), the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival (April/May), and Essence Festival (July) can cause citywide shortages for ground transportation. If your group is traveling during the peak spring season-which coincides with both festival season and local school graduations-or has a specific bus model in mind, locking in your reservation early is the best way to avoid higher rates and sold-out inventory. Fortunately, our flexible cancellation policy allows you to adjust your plans if your headcount changes or your event date shifts.

While we do our best to accommodate last-minute reservations, booking early guarantees your group stays together on a modern, comfortable charter bus.
