Baltimore charter buses — 40 to 56 passengers.

About Charter Bus Rental in Baltimore, MD

"Charter bus" is the umbrella term we use for full-service coach and mini-coach rentals where you book the whole bus and driver for your group. Same DOT-certified fleet as our motor coaches, but with flexible configurations for smaller parties.

About our Charter Buses

A charter bus is a bus hired exclusively for your group — you set the pickup, the stops, the timing. Baltimore Trips operates charter buses in three size tiers so the cost scales with the group: 24 to 32 passenger mini-coaches, 35 passenger shuttle coaches, and 40 to 56 passenger full-size motor coaches. The distinction from a "coach bus" is mostly marketing; operationally, every vehicle in our charter fleet meets DOT passenger carrier standards, carries $5M in commercial liability insurance, and rolls with a full-time professional driver.

Typical clients: Event planners, corporate HR departments, wedding coordinators, schools, sports clubs, destination-marketing groups, local nonprofits.

Variants available in our fleet

Each of these configurations is available from Baltimore Trips. Capacities listed are comfortable-fit; rated max may be higher. Ask your coordinator for current availability and specific VIN options.
