What does a Party Bus rental cost?
Santacruzcharterbuscompany.com makes finding accurate party bus prices in Santa Cruz fast and totally painless. Santa Cruz party bus rentals typically run $248–$426+ per hour, $1,827–$2,954+ per day, and $6.75–$9.95+ per mile, but your exact rate depends on your vehicle size, travel date, and how long you need the bus. Peak weekends near the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk or during summer festival season will price differently than a quiet Tuesday winery run up Highway 9.
At the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, buses unload at the designated loading zone between Neptune’s Kingdom and the Main Entrance, then proceed to the River Lot at 100 3rd St.; free parking there is limited to school or group charter buses, and bus parking is limited and not guaranteed. Your group can unload together at that designated zone before the bus heads to the River Lot, instead of splitting across individual car spaces. Fill out one quick form to see instant online pricing from a network of bus companies serving Santa Cruz, no account needed.
