Charter Bus Rentals in Lakewood, Colorado

A charter bus is a large vehicle booked by a group for private transportation to specific destinations on a schedule they choose. Unlike public RTD buses with fixed routes, charters go wherever the customer wants—whether that’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Empower Field at Mile High, or a wedding venue in Morrison. The group reserves the entire bus, so only their passengers ride. Amenities include cushioned seats, climate control, luggage storage, and sometimes Wi-Fi or TVs. Charter buses are commonly used for field trips, corporate events, sports team travel, and church retreats across Lakewood and the greater Denver metro area.

We offer minibuses (18–35 passengers), full-size charter buses (40–56 passengers), party buses (10–50 passengers), entertainer coaches, and sprinter vans (10–15 passengers) serving Lakewood and all of Jefferson County. Our fleet includes popular models from Prevost, Van Hool, MCI, Temsa, Grech, Executive Coach Builders, Tiffany, Starcraft, Turtle Top, Forest River, Berkshire, Tiffin, Winnebago, Thor, and Eldorado. Each vehicle type has different seating layouts and amenities, so we can accommodate any group size or trip need—from small wedding shuttles at Baldoria on the Water to large corporate moves for St. Anthony Hospital.

Charter bus pricing varies based on vehicle size, trip distance, duration, and time of year. For example, a 56-passenger coach costs $250–$350 per hour, $1,200–$2,000 per day, or $6–$8 per mile. Minibuses are cheaper at $150–$250 per hour or $900–$1,500 per day. Weekend trips to Red Rocks or Broncos games may be more expensive due to high demand.

The main factors are total mileage, trip length (hours/days), bus size/type, and seasonal demand. Longer trips—like shuttling a youth group to YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park—cost more than short local loops around Belmar. Larger buses with premium features (restroom, DVD screens) have higher base rates. Peak seasons—summer concert series at Fiddler’s Green or fall wedding weekends—see increased prices due to limited availability. Last-minute bookings may also incur surcharges. Optional add-ons like custom vinyl wraps or onboard catering are extra.

Start by calling our office at 307-452-6380 or filling out the online form with your trip details: date, pickup/drop-off addresses, headcount, and special requests. We’ll send a quote within minutes. Review the options, choose the best one, and sign the contract electronically. A deposit (typically 10–20%) secures the reservation; the balance is due before departure.

Standard amenities include reclining cloth or leather seats, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, individual reading lights, power outlets/USB ports, PA system, and strong air conditioning (essential for Colorado summers). Most coaches have flat-screen monitors, DVD/CD player, and Wi-Fi hotspot upon request. Restrooms are built into 40+ foot models. Premium packages feature hardwood-style flooring, LED accent lighting, tray tables, cup holders, and extra legroom. Party buses add perimeter bench seating, Bluetooth soundbar, TV, mini-fridge, and optional dance pole. ADA-accessible lifts available at no extra charge.

Schools (Jeffco Public Schools field trips to Denver Zoo), sports teams (youth soccer tournaments at Foothills Sports Arena), wedding planners (guest shuttles between Chapel at Red Rocks and hotel blocks), corporations (employee commuter routes from Federal Center), churches (Sunday service vans for Mile Hi Church), and music promoters (band tour buses for gigs at Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom) are our biggest repeat clients. We also handle government contracts, political campaign tours, film production crew moves, and bachelor/bachelorette parties headed downtown.

We serve all neighborhoods of Lakewood—Belmar, Green Mountain, Bear Creek, Applewood, Eiber—as well as surrounding cities like Golden, Wheat Ridge, Arvada, Littleton, Morrison, Edgewater, and unincorporated Jefferson County. Regular routes extend into Denver proper (LoDo, Capitol Hill, Cherry Creek), Aurora, Westminster, Centennial, Highlands Ranch, and Boulder. Long-distance charters go anywhere in Colorado (Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Vail, Aspen, Grand Junction) or out of state if needed. No job is too close or too far.

Many venues require advance approval for oversized vehicle staging. Red Rocks Amphitheatre assigns buses to Upper South Lot with separate entrance fee. Hotels near Colorado Mills Mall may have limited clearance—confirm with property manager before arrival. Downtown pickups at Union Station or 16th Street Mall use designated loading zones with time restrictions enforced by DPD. Residential cul-de-sacs can be tight; arrange rendezvous point at nearest major intersection if necessary. Any parking fines incurred are client’s responsibility unless otherwise negotiated.

Quotes cover exclusive use of the bus, driver wages, fuel, insurance, and standard amenities listed in the contract. Gratuity (customarily 10–15% of total) is optional but appreciated. Tolls (E-470, Northwest Parkway) and paid parking fees (stadium lots, concert venues) are NOT included and must be reimbursed separately or paid upfront. Meals and lodging for driver required on overnight trips exceeding 8 hours behind the wheel per day. Additional mileage or wait time beyond original itinerary may result in extra charges at published hourly rate.

Match the passenger count to seating capacity with a small buffer for last-minute additions. Consider luggage needs—sports teams with coolers and equipment bags require larger storage bays. Trip length matters: anything over 90 minutes benefits from onboard restroom and Wi-Fi. Budget-conscious groups can skip luxury features to save money. Special requests should be mentioned during quoting process to ensure proper assignment. When in doubt, ask a representative for personalized recommendation based on experience with similar events.
