Charter Bus Prices in Ventura

Charter bus rental rates in Ventura typically range from $100 to $400 per hour, $1,200 to $3,500 per day, or $4.50 to $8.00 per mile depending on the size of the vehicle, time of year, and length of the trip. Smaller vehicles like 18-passenger or 25-passenger minibuses are on the lower end of that scale, while larger 56-passenger full-size charter buses are on the higher end. For longer trips, such as Ventura to Los Angeles or Ventura to Santa Barbara, you may be quoted a flat rate based on mileage. Local rentals within Ventura—serving areas like Downtown Ventura, Ventura Harbor, or the Ventura County Government Center—are often billed by the hour with a minimum of four or five hours.

Several factors influence the final price of your Ventura charter bus rental:

• Type and Size of Bus: Larger vehicles with more amenities (WiFi, power outlets, reclining seats, restroom) cost more than smaller, basic models.
• Trip Duration and Distance: Longer trips—such as Ventura to San Francisco or Ventura to San Diego—cost more than short local shuttles. Local trips are usually billed hourly; out-of-town trips may be billed by mileage or day.
• Time of Year: Spring and summer are peak seasons due to school trips, weddings, and tourism. Rates are higher from April to June and during holiday periods.
• Pickup Location: If your trip starts in a remote area of Ventura County, you may pay extra for the bus to arrive empty (“deadhead” fees). Pickups in Oxnard, Camarillo, or Thousand Oaks are standard, but remote areas like Ojai or Fillmore may incur additional charges.
• Trip Itinerary: Multiple stops, layovers, or complex schedules (e.g., shuttling between Ventura Harbor and Downtown Ventura) can increase the price.
• Additional Fees: Parking, tolls (such as the 101 or 118 freeways), and driver lodging for overnight trips are typically not included in the base rate.
