How Much Does A 56 Passenger Coach Bus Rental in Charleston Cost?

Amenities Available on our 56 Passenger Coach Buses in Charleston
Wi-Fi
All of our 56-passenger buses can be equipped with high-speed WiFi so your group can stay connected while traveling around Charleston. Passengers can check email, upload photos from Rainbow Row, stream music, or join video calls during the ride. This feature is especially popular for corporate shuttles between MUSC Health facilities or tech conferences at the Gaillard Center.
Onboard Restrooms
Each 56-passenger coach includes a clean, private restroom at the rear of the cabin. Having a bathroom onboard means fewer unscheduled stops along I-26 or Highway 17, which keeps your itinerary running smoothly whether you’re headed to a soccer tournament at Patriots Point or a wedding reception in Mount Pleasant.
Onboard TVs
Your bus comes with multiple flat-screen monitors and a DVD/Blu-ray player so you can entertain your guests with movies, training videos, or highlight reels. Sports teams love reviewing game footage en route to playoff games against Wando High School rivals, while student groups can watch documentaries about local Civil War history before arriving at Fort Sumter.
Power Outlets
Every row of seats has access to electrical outlets and USB charging ports, making it easy for passengers to keep their phones, tablets, and laptops fully charged during long trips. This is ideal for business travelers preparing presentations for meetings at the Charleston Area Convention Center or students finishing homework assignments on the way back from Edisto Beach State Park.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Charleston summers are hot and humid, but your charter bus will stay cool thanks to a powerful HVAC system with individual air vents above each seat. Everyone can adjust airflow to their liking, ensuring a comfortable ride whether you’re stuck in Crosstown traffic or crossing the Ravenel Bridge at sunset.
Leather Seating
Passengers will appreciate the wide, reclining seats upholstered in leather or premium fabric. There’s plenty of legroom to stretch out, plus adjustable footrests and armrests for added comfort. These plush seats make even the longest journeys—like overnight band trips to Atlanta—feel relaxing and enjoyable.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
There’s no shortage of storage space on a 56-passenger bus. Overhead bins above each row are perfect for backpacks, purses, and camera bags, while the massive undercarriage compartments can hold coolers, folding tables, sound equipment, or dozens of suitcases for cruise ship transfers to the Port of Charleston.
