Charter Bus Rentals in Cicero

A charter bus is a large, comfortable vehicle that you reserve for exclusive group use—like renting your own private shuttle with a custom itinerary. Unlike public CTA or Pace buses, which run fixed routes on schedules, charter buses go wherever and whenever your group needs within Cicero, Berwyn, Oak Park, or even downtown Chicago. You set all pickup points, drop-offs, and timing. The driver stays with your group for the entire rental, handling every stop from Morton College to Millennium Park so you travel together on time.

We provide one of the most diverse fleets in Illinois, with vehicles sized and equipped for any group or event. Options include minibuses (15–35 passengers) ideal for small corporate teams at Hawthorne Works or wedding shuttles to St. Mary of Czestochowa; full-size charter buses (40–56 passengers) built for school field trips, sports teams, or large-scale convention transport; party buses (10–50 passengers) featuring premium sound and lighting for nightlife runs into Chicago; and Sprinter vans (10–15 passengers) perfect for quick airport transfers to Midway or O’Hare. All models come from top manufacturers like Grech Motors, MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and Krystal, ensuring reliable performance and comfort.

Charter bus pricing varies based on vehicle size, trip length, and time of year, but typical rates are $145–$550+ per hour or $1,520–$5,000+ per day for a full-size coach. Minibuses run $150–$450+ per hour or $1,520–$3,465+ per day, while party buses and sprinter vans start around $180 per hour on weekdays. For example, a single-day round trip from Cicero to downtown Chicago with an eight-hour wait time might cost $2,000–$2,800 total depending on exact mileage and bus type. Multi-day rentals, such as transporting a sports team to Springfield or Champaign, are usually quoted at a flat daily rate plus mileage. Contact us with your exact itinerary for an instant quote tailored to your needs.

Several key factors determine your final price: the size and type of bus (larger coaches cost more than minibuses), total mileage traveled (longer trips increase rates), duration of the rental (hourly vs. daily billing), and seasonality (peak demand during summer festivals or graduation season may raise prices). Additional stops outside the main route—such as picking up riders in both Berwyn and Forest Park—can also affect the quote. Optional amenities like onboard restrooms or AV equipment are included in package tiers, but special requests should be mentioned upfront. Parking fees at venues like United Center or Navy Pier are not included and must be covered separately by the group.

All buses come standard with cushioned reclining seats, powerful climate control for Midwest winters and summers, overhead storage racks, and generous undercarriage luggage bays. Most vehicles feature free Wi-Fi, individual USB or power outlets at each seat, flat-screen monitors linked to a DVD/Blu-ray player, and PA systems for announcements. Full-size coaches include an onboard restroom located at the rear of the cabin. Additional comforts such as fold-down tray tables, cup holders, reading lights, and hardwood-style flooring are available on select models. If your group requires ADA accessibility, we can provide lifts and securement areas upon request.

We serve every type of organization and occasion across Cicero and greater Cook County. Common clients include public and private schools (field trips to museums or zoos), youth sports teams (game-day transport for Little League or soccer clubs), corporate offices (commuter shuttles from parking lots or Metra stations), religious congregations (retreats and volunteer outings), wedding parties (guest transfers between hotel, church, and reception hall), university student groups (campus tours or Greek life events), and concertgoers heading to major arenas. Custom packages are available for parades, political rallies, or film production crews needing basecamp shuttles.
