56 Passenger Charter Bus

Charter Bus Company Marietta operates a diverse fleet of 56-passenger charter buses from leading manufacturers such as MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and TEMSA. Specific models include the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45—all of which are known for their durability, comfort, and advanced features. Each model offers slightly different configurations in terms of seating layout, storage capacity, and onboard amenities, but all are built to handle long-distance travel with ease.

If you have a preference for a particular make or model, please mention it when booking and we will do our best to accommodate your request based on availability.

Our 56-passenger charter buses come in a variety of colors including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We also offer custom wraps if you want to display your company logo, team colors, or event branding on the exterior of the bus. This is a popular option for sports teams, corporate groups, and parade floats who want to make a strong visual impact when arriving at their destination.

Standard color options ensure that we can match the look and feel of your organization or event theme.

Standard amenities on a 56-passenger charter bus include reclining seats with armrests and footrests, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, PA system, and multiple video monitors with DVD player. Additional features may include WiFi, power outlets or USB ports at each row, window shades or curtains, and a rear restroom with toilet and sink. Some models also have tables for playing cards or working on laptops, as well as upgraded sound systems for music playback.

If you require something specific like HDMI inputs, wireless microphone, or extra-large baggage storage, please ask when booking.

The cost of renting a 56-passenger charter bus depends on several factors including the length of the trip, distance traveled, time of year, and pickup location. Pricing is typically calculated by the hour, day, or mile, with rates ranging from $180–$500+ per hour, $1,800–$3,800 per day, or $6.00–$9.95 per mile. Additional costs may include gratuity for the driver, parking fees at venues, tolls, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips.

To get an accurate quote, you will need to provide details about your itinerary such as pickup and drop-off addresses, schedule, and any special requests. Peak travel seasons like summer break or major holidays may result in higher prices due to increased demand.

A 56-passenger charter bus is the largest vehicle in our fleet, offering the most seating and storage capacity compared to other options like minibuses or party buses. While smaller buses are suitable for short trips or groups of 20-40 people, only a full-size coach can accommodate 50+ passengers with room for luggage and amenities. This makes it the preferred choice for large-scale events, interstate travel, and situations where comfort and convenience are paramount.

Smaller buses may be easier to maneuver in tight spaces and cost less to rent, but they lack the features and versatility of a 56-passenger model. When you need maximum capacity and capability, this is the best option available.

It is recommended to book a 56-passenger charter bus at least 3-6 months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak season or coincides with major events. Larger buses are in high demand for weddings, graduations, sporting events, and corporate functions, so securing your reservation early will ensure availability and better pricing. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be limited to whatever is left in the fleet and could cost more.

If you are planning a multi-day trip or need multiple buses, additional lead time is required to coordinate schedules and logistics.
