Party Bus In Washington gives Washington groups access to 40-56 passenger charter buses built for exactly the kind of trips this city demands — convention shuttles between the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and nearby hotels downtown, multi-school field trips along the Mall, and long-haul transfers between DC and Baltimore or Richmond.

More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
Full-size charter buses in our Washington fleet include models from MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and TEMSA — each one sized to move groups that would otherwise fill a dozen cars on the Beltway. A standard 56-seat MCI J4500 carries your full group in one vehicle with nearly 600 cubic feet of undercarriage luggage space, while a Prevost H3-45 delivers panoramic frameless windows and generous underfloor capacity for longer runs down I-95 to Northern Virginia or up the Baltimore-Washington Parkway. For DC events where parking is genuinely scarce — think National Mall gatherings, Kennedy Center performance nights, or game days at Nationals Park — one charter bus pulling up to the designated commercial drop-off beats a convoy of cars circling for spots.
You never have to pay for seats you don't fill.

Amenities On Our 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
Step aboard and you'll find high-back reclining seats, strong climate control, overhead parcel racks, WiFi, power outlets at every row, a PA system, an onboard restroom, and deep undercarriage bays — the kind of setup that makes a DC-to-Philadelphia round trip feel manageable, not draining. Depending on the specific model in the fleet, a Prevost H3-45 adds individual 110V outlets and indirect LED lighting, while an MCI J4500 brings TV monitors with a DVD player and smooth ceiling lighting that works for both overnight runs and group presentations on the way to a convention. The onboard restroom alone takes care of every debate about pit stops on the I-95 corridor.
If your group needs ADA-accessible accommodations, just let us know before your date and we'll match you with the right vehicle.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in Washington?
A 40-56 passenger charter bus rental in Washington runs $158–$327+ per hour on weekdays and $162–$348+ per hour on weekends, with full-day rates starting at $1,331 and reaching $2,841+ depending on the itinerary. What moves a quote within those ranges: total hours booked (longer trips work out to better effective hourly rates), whether your date falls on a weekend or a high-demand DC event weekend like the National Cherry Blossom Festival in April or Marine Corps Marathon weekend in October, the distance involved, and the season. Mileage between DC and Baltimore adds to the total differently than a tight shuttle loop around Capitol Hill.
