Frequently Asked Questions About Coach Bus Rentals in Lynchburg

FAQS

Lynchburg Coach Bus Service offers one of the largest, most diverse fleets in Central Virginia, so you’ll always find the right bus for your group. Choose from 15- to 35-passenger minibuses by Grech Motors, Battisti Customs, Midwest Automotive Designs, LGE Coachworks, and Tiffany Coach Builders—great for shuttling wedding guests between downtown Lynchburg venues or running corporate commuters to local business parks. For bigger groups, we have 40- to 56-passenger charter buses built by MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and Setra, with premium amenities like restrooms, WiFi, and reclining seats. We also offer party buses (10–50 passengers) from Krystal, Grech, Tiffany, LGE, Executive Coach Builders, and school buses perfect for Liberty University game-day runs or field trips to Amazement Square. Sprinter vans (10–15 passengers) round out our lineup.

Bus rental pricing in Lynchburg depends on several factors, including vehicle size, trip duration, mileage, and seasonality. Minibuses generally cost $150–$450+ per hour or $1,520–$3,465+ per day. Full-size charter buses run $145–$550+ per hour or $1,520–$5,000+ per day, while party buses average $180–$520+ per hour ($1,000–$3,900+ per day). Sprinter vans start at $160–$450+ per hour. Rates are typically higher during peak months (spring/fall wedding season, college graduations) and lower in winter. The best way to get an accurate quote is to call our team at 434-544-0130 with your exact itinerary—we’ll factor in all details and build a custom package that fits your budget and schedule.

Several key factors determine the cost of your Lynchburg bus rental: vehicle type/size, trip distance, number of days/hours needed, time of year, and any special routing requests. Larger buses with more amenities (like restrooms or hardwood floors) cost more than basic shuttles. Longer trips—such as an overnight charter to Washington, D.C., or a weeklong tour of Virginia’s historic triangle—will be priced higher than local transfers within Lynchburg or Bedford County. Busy seasons (April–June, September–November) see greater demand and higher rates, while midweek or winter bookings can save you money. Last-minute changes to your route or schedule may also impact pricing.
