San Diego Charter Bus & Minibus Rentals

• Charter Bus Amenities for Your Trip

  Riding in cramped cars for hours on end can be uncomfortable. Taking the MTS is certainly convenient, but out-of-town group members might have trouble learning how to get around. Plus, if you’re traveling with a large group, neither of these options are ideal.

  The next time you need group transportation in San Diego, consider booking a charter bus! Vehicles are available for groups of all sizes—from small groups of 18 to large groups of 50 or more. Everyone will travel as one unit with a professional bus driver behind the wheel—no more asking friends, cousins, or reluctant younger siblings to take driving shifts.

  Plus, buses are loaded with amenities that make them far more comfortable than cars. Air conditioning will counteract the California heat, WiFi will keep everyone connected to their favorite websites, power outlets will keep devices charged, and extra storage space will keep aisles free of clutter. Other features such as onboard restrooms or ADA accessibility are available as well—just ask your bus rental expert about what your group would like to see on your bus!

• Host Private Events in San Diego

  Transporting event attendees is easy with a minibus shuttle by your side! For your next San Diego event, National Charter Bus can pair you with a compact, private shuttle to serve as your event’s exclusive transportation service. Whether you’re moving wedding guests between your hotel and the ceremony space or you’re keeping corporate event attendees connected to the San Diego Convention Center, we’ll make sure that all passengers can travel safely, comfortably, and efficiently. Plus, no one will have to worry about driving themselves or getting lost in the city!

• Provide Comfort on a Field Trip

  We’re all familiar with classic yellow school buses and the field trip memories that come with them. But what if you’re taking your students on a long-distance field trip? A charter bus can provide more space and amenities for students, chaperones, and teachers to enjoy, plus a professional bus driver to ensure the safety of everyone on board. Show an educational film on the bus’s TV screens, or allow students to have a bit of downtime with onboard WiFi. Pit stops can also be eliminated with onboard restrooms on large coach models. When you book a bus with us, your field trip will go off without a hitch!

• Support Your Favorite San Diego Teams

  Celebrating a win for your favorite team is always better with a group—that’s why we love to make it easy for groups to travel together to all San Diego sporting events! With a professional bus driver behind the wheel, all your group needs to do is pack up your favorite snacks and drinks, load onto your bus, and enjoy the ride. Whether you’re supporting the Padres, the San Diego State Aztecs, or your favorite local team, you can count on us to provide a smooth, memorable ride.

  On your bus, you’ll have plenty of space to bring along all of your necessary tailgating gear. Plus, with your DD already in place, all group members can enjoy your celebration to the fullest without worrying about how they’ll get home.

• Transport Your Sports Team to Away Games

  If you’re booking transportation for your band of players, coaches, and staff members, we have you covered. National Charter Bus will help you put together the perfect fleet of charter buses to accommodate everyone in your group. Full-sized motorcoaches come with spacious luggage bays and overhead racks, providing plenty of space for luggage, equipment, and additional carry-on items.

Frequently Asked Questions about San Diego Charter Bus Travel

1. What is the traffic like in San Diego?

According to the TomTom Traffic Index, San Diego ranks as the 25th most-congested city in the country. And compared to other vehicle-dependent Southern California cities like Los Angeles, San Diego’s traffic patterns are relatively manageable—if you know when to travel.

To skip the worst of the city’s traffic, avoid hitting the road around traditional rush hour times (7 am to 9 am and 3 pm to 6 pm). This is especially true on Friday afternoons, which see the most traffic congestion out of the entire week.

2. What are the public transportation options like in San Diego?

The San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) doesn’t offer a subway or underground train, but it does provide a variety of transportation options that service most destinations in town. Travelers can choose between the light rail system (favored by commuters), the bus lines (an economical option with a $2.50 fare and 89 routes citywide), and the Red Trolley (a fun alternative for tourists hopping between popular sightseeing spots).

3. Are there any restrictions on charter buses in San Diego?

While San Diego’s oversized vehicle regulations are geared toward RVs and pull-along trailers, many of the same rules still apply to minibus shuttles, charter bus rentals, and other motorcoaches. Keep in mind that oversized vehicles cannot park on public streets between the hours of 2 am and 6 am, and it’s best to avoid residential areas when taking a private bus rental through San Diego. Otherwise, if you stick to parking your bus rental in coach-friendly hotel lots and keeping an eye out for oversized vehicle parking around popular sightseeing destinations downtown, traversing San Diego by charter bus will be easy!

4. What are the largest annual events in San Diego?

When you think of “big event” and “San Diego” you’re most likely thinking of San Diego ComicCon—and for good reason! It’s the largest comics and pop culture convention in the U.S. and draws over 150,000 attendees into town every summer. Other popular events include the San Diego County Fair (the largest fair in the state!) and the Miramar Air Show.

5. What is the weather like in San Diego?

Like most of Southern California, San Diego features many facets of a Mediterranean climate—including hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. That being said, San Diego often receives less rainfall come wintertime than other SoCal cities in the area.
