Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of renting a shuttle bus in Knoxville typically ranges from $1,200 to $3,500+ for multi-day and longer distance trips, depending on the size of the bus, length of the rental, and exact itinerary. Smaller 18-passenger minibuses start around $1,595 per day, while larger 56-passenger charter buses start at $2,295–$2,500 per day. Final pricing is based on your specific trip details including pickup location, number of days/hours, mileage, and any special requests.

Several factors influence the price of your Knoxville bus rental, including the type and size of vehicle you choose (minibus vs. full-size charter bus), the number of passengers, the duration of your trip (hourly, daily, or multi-day), total mileage, and the time of year. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver accommodations for overnight trips may also affect the final cost. Peak demand periods around major events like University of Tennessee football games, graduations, or festivals can result in higher rates.
