The main factors that affect your quote are the type of bus, trip distance, number of days, and travel dates. Larger vehicles like 56-passenger coaches cost more than smaller minibuses or sprinter vans. Longer trips—such as a weeklong tour to Asheville or Wilmington—will be priced higher than a single-day shuttle between ECU and Uptown Greenville. Peak seasons like spring break, ECU football weekends, and major festivals can also increase rates due to high demand. Additional amenities such as onboard restrooms, PA systems, or custom branding may add to the total cost.

Hotels like Hilton Greenville and Holiday Inn Express have space for oversized vehicles. If you’re visiting Pitt County Fairgrounds, Greenville Convention Center, or River Park North, each site has ample parking for buses. Always check with your venue in advance for specific instructions.
