A: With Houston, we’re lucky that there’s so many different charter bus companies that do an excellent job. It is really up to the traveler to do a bit of research to compare equipment, pricing, and insurance. Also, how long they’ve been in business.
Whether that fits their needs or not, it’s always good to have more than one quote or company to discuss and compare prices and service records.
Renting a limo in Houston, a stretch, or even a couple of them—that’s not out of the ordinary. However, how many people think about renting a charter bus in Houston?
Yeah, it’s not something you think about—a party bus, the executive minibus, or the big, 55-passenger coach—that is, until you really need one. It’s not quite the same as renting a car or booking a limo, the logistics are a bit more complex. Think about it, you’re responsible for organizing a huge group of people. It’s a lot more tedious than making plans for your squad of 4 or 5.
But, fortunately, you’re checking out Excelsior Transportation and we make renting a charter bus in Houston easy. It doesn’t matter what kind of trip you’re doing or what experience you have booking a charter bus—we’ve got you!
We’ll help you get your group organized, on the right bus, and make sure everyone who came together, leaves together. After all, whether it’s a corporate event, a family reunion road trip, or a church youth excursion you want order and safety. We’ll be there every step of the way making sure you stay on schedule and relaxed.
The Basics Of Renting A Charter Bus In Houston
Ok, so maybe you’re reading this at four in the morning like we’re here writing it. You probably have some burning questions and we’ve got you covered. We’ve put together a quick-read guide to help you be prepared for renting a charter bus in Houston.
Is A Charter Bus Right For Your Group?
We’re not here to rent you the most expensive mode of transportation. We’re here to guide you to the right transportation that’s going to make you happy.
So, if you’re just wanting to do a Dunder Mifflin day and set up a “Work Bus”—we’re not going to suggest a huge motorcoach. We’d recommend one of our party buses for something like that just leave your office’s “Dwight” at home.
However, if you’re looking for something comfortable for a long haul or convenient transport for a group of more than 37 passengers—that’s different. That’s when we’d recommend the charter bus because it seats up to 55 comfortably.
Renting a charter bus in Houston is ideal for pro football teams, family reunions, bachelorette parties, and more. We have several sizes to accommodate any crowd.
Large businesses that need transport to training at off-site locations, team-building retreats, or conferences greatly benefit from a charter bus.
We even get high school reunion groups that will book a charter bus in Houston. Usually, it’s to drive them down to Galveston or Golden Nugget in Lake Charles. That’s really popular with the 20-year reunion crowds.
Deciding whether a charter bus is right for you or not comes down to group size, distance, and of course, budget.
Once you’ve determined this is the route you want to go, you need to find the right bus for your group.
What Type Of Bus Do You Need?
Picking the best type of bus is going to be based on your group size, the type of event, and the length of the trip. Of course, you could simply call us and give us the details of your event. However, it’s always good to get an idea for yourself as well before calling.
Our Fleet Is All First Class
At Excelsior, we don’t settle for anything less than the best buses to service our clients. We invest in safety as well as luxury, so we have a fully functional service area with certified mechanics on-site. This helps us keep our fleet up to date on maintenance, make any necessary repairs and keep everything under our strict quality control. Our buses available for your event include:

Let’s say you have a group larger than what a limo can handle, but you don’t exactly need a huge bus. Our fleet of minibuses can comfortably accommodate up to 36 passengers in luxury accommodations.
Your group will appreciate the plush interiors and seating and the safety of three-point harness seat belts. Going on a road trip with us? Not a problem, we can keep you entertained with flat-screen TVs and DVD/Multimedia players for those long hauls.
These first-class vehicles are the perfect touch for a group outing. It could be just shuttling employees back and forth at corporate events.
