Factor 1: The Distance and Duration of Your Trip

Bus rentals are typically charged by the hour, by the day, or by the mile, depending on the length of your trip. Local trips around Topeka—such as shuttles between downtown hotels and the Kansas State Capitol, Washburn University, or Stormont Vail Events Center—are usually billed hourly. Longer trips—for example, a multi-day excursion to Kansas City or Wichita—may be billed daily or by mileage. Be prepared to share your complete itinerary, including pickup and drop-off locations, departure and return times, and any planned stops along the way.

Factor 2: The Type and Size of the Bus

Larger buses with more amenities cost more than smaller, standard models. A 56-passenger motorcoach is more expensive than a 20-passenger minibus, but the cost per person may be lower if you fill every seat. We also offer party buses, sprinter vans, and specialty vehicles—just ask!

Factor 3: The Time of Year

Charter bus rates fluctuate with seasonal demand. Spring and fall are peak times due to school field trips, sports tournaments, and weddings. You’ll pay more during these months, especially if your trip overlaps with major events like Washburn University graduation or high school athletic championships. Summer and winter tend to be less expensive unless you’re booking around holidays.

Factor 4: Additional Expenses

Your quote covers the bus rental and driver’s time, but you’re responsible for tolls, parking fees, and the driver’s hotel on overnight trips. (Don’t forget to budget for driver gratuity—industry standard is 10–20%.) Popular Topeka venues like the Stormont Vail Events Center and downtown hotels may charge for bus parking.

Factor 5: Bus Availability

Finally, the availability of buses at the time of your trip can impact pricing. During busy seasons or large events—such as state tournaments at the Stormont Vail Events Center or legislative sessions at the State Capitol—buses may be in short supply, driving up rates. Booking early ensures better availability and more competitive pricing.
