Shuttle your team between RTP headquarters and downtown Durham hotels, coordinate group transportation to events at the Raleigh Convention Center (500 S Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC 27601), or arrange a private shuttle for a corporate dinner at Counting House (454 W Franklin St, Chapel Hill, NC 27516).

No Durham sports fan should have to sit in a parking lot for 45 minutes after a Duke Blue Devils game when a charter bus can drop them right at the door.

The right bus size depends on your passenger count, your luggage needs, and the nature of your trip. Here's a quick breakdown of what's available through the Coachbusdurham.com network: Sprinter vans fit 10–14 passengers and are great for executive transfers and small group airport runs. 15-passenger minibuses work well for small wedding parties or intimate corporate groups. 25- to 35-passenger minibuses are the sweet spot for mid-size groups like sports teams, school classes, and bachelorette parties. 40- to 50-passenger party buses are ideal for celebrations where the ride is part of the experience.
56-passenger full-size charter buses are best for large groups, long-distance trips, and events where undercarriage luggage storage and an onboard restroom are priorities. Not sure which size fits your group? Call 984-367-3620 and a live agent will help you figure it out!
For most Durham bus rentals, booking two to three months in advance is a solid rule of thumb, but the earlier, the better. Durham's busiest booking periods include Duke basketball season (November through March), prom season (late April and May), graduation weekends at Duke, NC Central, and NC State (May), and major events at DPAC year-round. During these windows, vehicle options can fill up fast and pricing can change as availability tightens.
For large groups, multi-day trips, or events with a fixed date that can't be moved, like a wedding or a graduation, booking four to six months out gives you more time to compare options. Waiting until the last minute can limit your options. Fill out one quick form on Coachbusdurham.com right now to check availability for your date, or call 984-367-3620 and a live agent will help you lock it in!
