Additional costs such as tolls, parking fees, and driver accommodations are not included in the base rate and will be added separately to your final invoice.

Our full-size charter buses can accommodate up to 56 passengers and come equipped with all the latest amenities. We also have sprinter vans that can seat up to 15 passengers, ideal for small groups or executive travel.

Amenities vary by vehicle but may include reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, USB ports, flat-screen TVs, DVD players, Bluetooth sound systems, PA systems, luggage bays, overhead storage, restrooms, and hardwood-style flooring.

We recommend booking your charter bus at least 6 to 9 months in advance, especially if you’re traveling during a busy season or planning a large event. This will give you the best selection of vehicles and ensure availability. Last-minute bookings are possible, but options may be limited.

Austin offers several options for charter bus parking, though it’s important to plan ahead and confirm availability before your trip. Downtown curbside parking is extremely limited, but there are designated curbside zones near the Austin Convention Center (500 E. Cesar Chavez St.) and around the Texas State Capitol complex. The Austin Convention Center Garage at 601 E. 5th St. allows oversized vehicle parking with advance reservation. Several private surface lots downtown also accommodate charter buses with prior arrangement—contact operators like LAZ Parking or SP+ for locations and rates. For longer-term staging, use the Travis County Expo Center (7311 Decker Ln.), which offers ample space and easy access to US-183 and SH-130. Zilker Park has limited bus parking along Stratford Drive for groups visiting Barton Springs or the ACL Festival grounds. Always coordinate drop-off and pick-up times with your venue, and avoid leaving the vehicle unattended in unauthorized areas to prevent ticketing or towing.

Austin’s public transit system, Capital Metro, includes local bus routes, MetroRapid lines, and the MetroRail commuter train. While these options are affordable and useful for individual riders, they aren’t ideal for large groups traveling together—especially if you need to stick to a tight schedule or reach destinations outside the downtown core. With a private charter bus, your entire group can travel together on a custom schedule with direct service to any location in the city—including areas not served by CapMetro. You won’t have to worry about missed connections, crowded vehicles, or carrying luggage between stops. Plus, you’ll enjoy comfortable seating, onboard amenities, and flexible pickup/drop-off options that make it easy to get exactly where you need to go.
