56 Passenger Charter Bus

Charter Bus Company Lakeville offers several of the most popular and trusted 56-passenger charter buses in the industry, including the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. These are the same full-size, 45-foot motorcoaches used by professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, universities, and tour operators nationwide—so you know you’re getting a bus that’s built for comfort, reliability, and performance. Each model comes standard with forward-facing, high-back seats (cloth or leatherette), individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, and a rear restroom. You’ll also get multiple video monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, a PA microphone, and optional Wi-Fi and 110V/USB power outlets throughout the cabin. All of these buses have large underfloor luggage bays that can handle bulky equipment or multiple suitcases per passenger. If you need something specific—like a particular brand, interior color, or custom wrap—just ask when you call. We’ve seen and booked every kind of trip there is, and we’ll make sure you get exactly the bus you need at a price that fits your budget.

Charter Bus Company Lakeville offers 56-passenger charter buses in a wide range of exterior colors to match any event, team, or corporate branding. Standard options include black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and yellow—perfect for everything from formal occasions to school and sports travel. Need something unique? We can provide custom wraps with your logo, graphics, or full-color artwork for a truly personalized look. Just let us know your color preference or send your artwork when you request a quote, and we’ll make sure you get a bus that fits your exact specifications.

Every 56-passenger charter bus includes a full set of standard amenities designed for comfort, convenience, and entertainment on the road. You’ll get forward-facing, high-back seats with either cloth or leatherette upholstery, armrests, footrests, and reclining backs so passengers can relax or nap while on the road. Stay connected with onboard Wi-Fi and multiple 110V/USB power outlets at every row—perfect for laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Entertainment options include flat-screen monitors mounted throughout the cabin, DVD/Blu-ray players, and Bluetooth-capable sound systems that allow you to stream music or videos directly from your devices. Additional amenities include a PA system for announcements, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, and either a half-bathroom or full restroom at the rear of the coach. There’s also ample storage space with large underfloor luggage bays and optional branding packages available upon request.

A 56-passenger charter bus rental typically costs between $180 and $500+ per hour, $1,800 to $3,800 per day, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile. The final price depends on several factors: the length and duration of your trip, the exact pickup and drop-off locations, how many days you need the bus, and current demand in your area. Additional expenses such as parking passes at venues are not included and must be purchased separately; if your trip requires an overnight stay, the customer is responsible for the driver’s hotel room. Please note that these rates are estimates—actual pricing may be significantly higher during peak travel times, special events, or in areas with limited availability.

The 56-passenger charter bus is our largest and most versatile option, ideal for big groups who want to travel together in a single, full-size coach. Compared to smaller minibuses (which seat 15–35) or sprinter vans (up to 14), this vehicle offers more seating, better amenities, and much more luggage space—making it perfect for long-distance trips, multi-day events, or any occasion where comfort and capacity matter. You’ll get forward-facing, high-back seats (cloth or leatherette), strong A/C, overhead storage, a rear restroom, and multiple video screens with DVD/Blu-ray players—plus optional Wi-Fi and USB/110V outlets at every row. Underfloor luggage bays can handle bulky gear or multiple suitcases per passenger. Smaller buses are easier to maneuver downtown and cost less for short trips, but they don’t have restrooms, reclining seats, or underfloor storage. If you’re moving a large group of kids, athletes, employees, or wedding guests—and you want everyone in the same vehicle—this is the bus you need. It’s the same kind of coach used by college teams, corporate shuttle programs, and big event planners across the country.

We recommend booking your 56-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing—especially if your trip falls during a busy travel season. Spring and summer are peak times due to school field trips, graduations, weddings, and sports tournaments, while fall sees increased demand from corporate events and college athletics. In Lakeville, major events like local high school playoffs, Dakota County fairgrounds activities, and nearby Twin Cities festivals can quickly fill up the regional fleet. Last-minute bookings are possible but may limit your vehicle options and increase the cost.
