Shuttle Bus Prices in Providence, Rhode Island

The cost to rent a shuttle bus in Providence typically ranges from $400 to $1,400 per day, with hourly rates averaging $125–$295 per hour and multi-day packages available for $3,500–$6,500+ depending on the length of your trip. Final pricing depends on several key factors, including the size of the vehicle (18-, 20-, 25-, or 56-passenger buses), the number of days/hours you need it, total mileage, and whether your trip requires an overnight stay or out-of-state travel. You’ll pay either an hourly rate or a flat daily/multi-day fee based on your exact itinerary. Additional expenses may include tolls, parking fees, and hotel rooms for the driver if required.

There are several factors that influence the cost of your Providence shuttle bus rental. First is the distance and duration of your trip. Local trips around Providence will generally be charged by the hour, while longer trips across state lines will be charged by the mile. Second, the size of the bus matters. Smaller shuttle buses (like 18-, 20-, or 25-passenger models) often cost less than larger 56-passenger vehicles, but sometimes upgrading to a bigger bus is only a small difference in price. Third, the time of year affects pricing. Spring and summer are peak seasons due to weddings, proms, and school events, so prices tend to be higher. Fourth, Providence is a compact city with narrow streets and limited parking, especially downtown and on College Hill. Your shuttle may incur extra fees for navigating tight areas or idling during events like WaterFire. Fifth, additional expenses like tolls, parking fees, and driver accommodations (if you’re traveling overnight) will be added to your final bill. Finally, any special requests—such as upgraded amenities or custom branding—may also impact the total cost.
