56 Passenger Charter Bus

We proudly offer top-of-the-line 56 passenger charter buses from leading manufacturers such as MCI (J4500, D4500), Prevost (H3-45), Van Hool (CX45), and TEMSA (TS45). These models are known for their reliability, comfort, and advanced features, making them ideal for long-distance travel or high-capacity shuttles. Each brand offers slightly different floor plans and options, but all are built to the highest standards of quality and performance. If you have a specific make or model preference, please let us know when booking.

Our 56 passenger charter buses are available in a variety of colors including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We can also accommodate special requests for custom wraps or branding if you want to display your company logo, school mascot, or event graphics on the side of the bus. This is a popular option for sports teams, corporate shuttles, or promotional tours looking to make a strong visual impact.

Standard amenities on our 56 passenger charter buses include reclining seats with armrests and footrests, individual reading lights, powerful heating and air conditioning, and large tinted windows with adjustable shades. Entertainment options feature multiple flat-screen TVs, DVD/Blu-ray players, a PA system, and optional WiFi connectivity. Each row has access to USB ports and 110V power outlets for charging devices. There is a full-size restroom at the rear of the coach, as well as overhead parcel racks for carry-on items. Additional features such as leather seating, hardwood-style flooring, or upgraded sound systems may be available depending on the specific vehicle.

The cost to rent a 56 passenger charter bus in Maple Grove typically ranges from $180–$500+ per hour, $1,800–$3,800 per day, or $6.00–$9.95 per mile depending on several factors. Included in your quote is the base rate for the vehicle and driver, plus standard gratuity. Not included are expenses such as parking passes at venues (which you’ll need to purchase separately), tolls incurred during the trip, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips outside of Maple Grove or Hennepin County.

Final pricing depends on the length of your trip, time of year, exact pickup location, and current demand. For example, renting a bus during peak season (spring/summer) or around major events like the Minnesota State Fair or a Vikings game will be more expensive due to high demand. One-way trips or multi-day itineraries requiring the bus to stay out of town overnight will also increase the total cost. The best way to get accurate pricing is to call our team with your exact itinerary details—we’re available 24/7 and can provide a personalized quote in minutes.

The 56 passenger charter bus is the largest and most fully featured option in our fleet, offering significantly more seating capacity and storage space than any other vehicle type. Smaller alternatives such as minibuses, party buses, and sprinter vans typically accommodate between 15 and 40 passengers and may lack certain amenities like onboard restrooms or underfloor luggage bays. While these mid-sized vehicles are well-suited for shorter trips or smaller groups, they cannot match the comfort, versatility, and long-range capability of a full-size motorcoach. If you need to move a large number of people over a long distance, the 56 passenger bus is the best choice.

We recommend booking your 56 passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and get the best rates. Larger vehicles tend to sell out quickly, especially during peak travel seasons such as spring break, summer vacation, and the winter holidays. Major events in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area—like the State Fair, sports playoffs, or large conventions—can also cause a spike in demand. Last-minute reservations are possible if we have open inventory, but planning ahead gives you more options and flexibility.
