Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of renting a shuttle bus in Albuquerque typically ranges from $1,300 to $3,100+ per day, $140–$350+ per hour, or $4.50–$9.00+ per mile depending on the size of the bus, length of your trip, and exact itinerary. You’ll get an exact price once you call our team with your trip details. We offer package deals and custom pricing for multi-day events, recurring shuttles, and long-distance trips.

Major factors include the size of bus you book (18–56 seats), number of days or hours you need service, total mileage, time of year, and any special requests like custom branding or premium amenities. Multi-day and multi-bus packages are available at discounted rates. Additional costs may include driver hotel rooms (for overnight trips), tolls, parking fees, and optional gratuity.

Your quote includes the bus, driver, fuel, and all standard onboard amenities. It does not include driver gratuity (typically 10–20%), tolls, parking fees, or hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. Those expenses are billed separately or paid directly by the customer. Ask your reservation specialist for an all-inclusive estimate if you want to prepay everything up front.

We recommend booking your bus at least six months in advance, especially if your trip falls during Albuquerque’s busy spring and fall travel seasons. Major events like the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, New Mexico State Fair, Gathering of Nations Powwow, and University of New Mexico graduation can sell out local fleets quickly. Last-minute reservations are possible if vehicles are still available, but prices may be higher and selection limited.
