Every Olympia charter bus rental is custom-priced based on your exact itinerary, passenger count, and vehicle type. Here are four real-world examples to show how different trips add up:

Example #1: A state agency in downtown Olympia needs a 56-passenger coach to shuttle employees to a two-day training seminar in Seattle. The bus will make one round trip each day and stay overnight with the group. They receive a quote for $3,200 and add a 15% driver gratuity. Final cost including gratuity: $3,680.

Example #2: An Evergreen State College club books a minibus (seats 20) for a weekend retreat to Ocean Shores. The trip lasts three days with local shuttles between lodging and activities. Their all-inclusive rate is $2,850, and they tip the driver $300 at the end. Final cost including gratuity: $3,150.

Example #3: A wedding party rents a 25-passenger minibus for guest transportation between hotels and a venue outside Tumwater. The service runs five hours with multiple loops. Their contract totals $1,100, and they add a $200 cash tip afterward. Final cost including gratuity: $1,300.

Example #4: A high school band secures a 50-seat charter bus for a four-day competition in Spokane. The package price is $5,000, not including hotel room and meals for the driver. After reimbursing those expenses ($500) and tipping 10%, their grand total comes to $6,000.

Several key factors affect the final price of your charter bus rental in Olympia, including the number of passengers, type of vehicle selected, duration of the trip, total mileage, and time of year. Local events such as Washington State Legislative Sessions, Capital Lakefair, or large university functions at Evergreen State College can also impact availability and rates due to increased demand.

We recommend booking your charter bus at least four to six months in advance to secure the best availability and pricing.
