For larger groups, choose a 40- to 56-passenger charter bus from MCI, Prevost, Van Hool or Setra with under-floor luggage bays, reclining seats and bathrooms—ideal for school trips to the John Deere Tractor & Engine Museum or multi-day tours to Des Moines or Minneapolis.

In general, you can expect to pay $145–$550+ per hour or $1,520–$5,000+ per day for a full-size charter bus, $150–$450+ per hour or $1,520–$3,465+ per day for a minibus, and $180–$520+ per hour for a party bus. Sprinter vans and school buses are usually the most affordable options, while luxury coaches with premium amenities cost more.

Downtown Waterloo has several options for charter bus parking and loading/unloading. The most convenient spot is along Commercial Street near the RiverLoop Amphitheatre, which has designated bus bays and easy access to Main Street attractions. Other good locations include West Park Avenue by the Waterloo Center for the Arts, East 4th Street near Lincoln Park, and the lot behind Young Arena on Jefferson Street. If you’re visiting the Grout Museum District, there’s a dedicated bus drop-off zone on South Street. For longer-term parking, contact the city’s Traffic Operations Department to reserve space in a municipal lot.

We recommend booking your charter bus as early as possible, especially if you’re traveling during peak season (April-June for school trips, September-October for weddings, and major holidays). Ideally, you should reserve your bus at least 3-6 months in advance to ensure the best selection and pricing. However, we can accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible—even same-day bookings if we have availability. The more lead time you give us, the easier it is to secure the exact vehicle you want.
