How Much Does A 56 Passenger Coach Bus Rental in Santa Barbara Cost?

The cost of renting a 56-passenger charter bus in Santa Barbara typically ranges from $185 to $375 per hour, depending on the exact make and model, the time of year, and how many days you need it. For example, an MCI J4500 will cost more than a Van Hool CX45 or a Temsa TS-45.
