Charter Bus & Minibus Rentals in Plymouth, Minnesota

A charter bus is a large motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from destinations of their choice on a schedule they control. Unlike a public bus or pre-set tour, a charter bus operates entirely on-demand: it goes where and when the customer wants, making any requested stops along the way. Modern charter buses typically seat 35 to 56 passengers, offer comfortable reclining seats, strong climate control, onboard restrooms, luggage bays, and optional amenities like Wi-Fi and video screens. Smaller groups can book “minibuses” (20–35 seats) with similar features. Common uses include school and college trips, corporate shuttles, wedding and event transportation, sports team travel, and moving large groups to conventions, festivals, or out-of-town functions.

Charter Bus Company Plymouth offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets of buses in Plymouth and the entire Twin Cities region, ranging from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches. Our minibus options include vehicles from 15 to 35 seats, ideal for shuttles, airport transfers, or small-group outings. Larger groups can book a 40-, 50-, or 56-passenger charter bus built by top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, or Temsa. We also offer party buses (10 to 40 passengers) and entertainer coaches with custom interiors for special events or VIP travel. Many vehicles are available in multiple colors (black, white, silver, or custom wraps) and can be upgraded with premium amenities on request.

Most modern buses include reclining seats, strong air conditioning, overhead reading lights, luggage racks, and a PA system. Larger buses (35+ seats) typically have an onboard restroom, flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, and 110V power outlets at each row. Many vehicles now offer fast onboard Wi-Fi and USB charging ports. Additional amenities can include leather upholstery, tray tables, footrests, individual climate controls, and tinted windows. For longer trips, ask about buses with HDMI inputs, Bluetooth audio, or upgraded sound systems. Premium coaches may offer forward-facing video screens, larger monitors, or even executive seating with tables. If you need something specific—like Wi-Fi that supports Zoom calls, multiple video screens, or extra luggage space—just ask. We can usually provide a bus that meets your exact requirements.

Yes, every bus has dedicated luggage space. Larger buses (35+ seats) include undercarriage luggage bays that can hold one large suitcase per passenger, plus carry-on items. Smaller minibuses (15–28 seats) offer generous overhead racks and rear cargo areas for duffel bags or smaller suitcases. As a rule of thumb, each person can bring one full-size bag for the luggage bay and one carry-on for the cabin. If your group has extra gear—like sports equipment, band instruments, or display materials—let us know in advance. We’ll make sure you have enough space, even if it means upgrading to a larger vehicle. For oversized items (skis, bikes, trade show cases), we can recommend the best way to load and secure them.

Yes, Charter Bus Company Plymouth can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and accessible restrooms upon request. Many of our newer-model minibuses and full-size coaches are built to meet ADA guidelines and can accommodate one or more passengers who use wheelchairs or mobility devices. Just let us know your accessibility needs when you request a quote so we can match you with a suitable vehicle. We regularly provide accessible transportation for schools, senior groups, medical facilities, and special events across Plymouth and the western Twin Cities suburbs.
