Several factors influence the cost of your bus rental: the size and type of bus (minibus, charter bus, party bus, sprinter van, or school bus), the distance and duration of your trip, the time of year (spring and fall are peak seasons), and how far in advance you book. Additional amenities like WiFi, TVs, or extra luggage space may also affect pricing. For example, a weekend wedding shuttle to Old Mesilla will be priced differently than a weekday corporate commuter route or a multi-day school trip to Carlsbad Caverns. The best way to get an exact price is to contact us with your itinerary—we’ll give you a custom quote in minutes.

Charter buses can park or load/unload at several locations around Las Cruces, but it’s important to plan ahead and check for any restrictions. Popular spots include the Las Cruces Convention Center, NMSU campus, downtown Main Street near Plaza de Las Cruces, and hotel parking lots along Telshor Boulevard or University Avenue. For events at parks like Young Park or Apodaca Park, there are designated bus zones or large lots available. When visiting Old Mesilla, buses can drop off passengers near the plaza but may need to park farther away due to narrow streets. If you’re unsure about parking at your destination, our team can help you coordinate with venue staff or suggest alternatives.

Your quote includes the bus itself, standard amenities (WiFi, power outlets, TVs, etc.), and mileage based on your itinerary. Tolls, parking fees, and gratuity are not included unless specified. There are no hidden fees—what you see is what you pay.

We recommend booking your bus as early as possible, especially if you’re planning a trip during peak season (spring and fall) or around major events like NMSU graduation, the Whole Enchilada Fiesta, or the Las Cruces Country Music Festival. Ideally, you should reserve your bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance for the best selection and pricing. However, we can accommodate last-minute requests if a vehicle is available—even same-day bookings in some cases. If you’re not sure of your exact headcount or schedule yet, you can still get a quote and adjust details later. The sooner you book, the more options you’ll have.
