Saint Paul shuttle bus rental prices depend on several key factors: the size and type of vehicle you choose (18-, 20-, 25-, or 56-passenger buses), the length and duration of your trip (mileage, number of days, or hours), the time of year and demand (peak seasons like spring and summer can increase rates), and the pickup location relative to our fleet hubs. Multi-day and long-distance trips may also require you to cover driver lodging and meals.
