(284 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139)-where your driver can navigate the tight residential streets and bypass the limited parking nightmare-and Cambridge Brewing Company (1 Kendall Square, Cambridge, MA 02139), which draws weekend crowds that make parking a headache.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to rent a bus in Cambridge, Massachusetts?
+The cost of a charter bus rental in Cambridge, Massachusetts, depends on your trip details. Factors like the size of the bus, how many days you need it, and the time of year all impact the price. Generally, you can expect to pay $1,300-$3,800 per day for a full-size motorcoach or $1,200-$3,500 per day for a minibus when you include your driver's tip.

The best way to get an exact price is to call our team anytime at 862-354-9340. We'll give you an instant quote with transparent pricing for your Cambridge trip.
What amenities are available on each of our bus types in Cambridge, Massachusetts?
+Cambridge Charter Bus offers a wide range of amenities to keep your group comfortable in any weather.

No matter what vehicle you choose, we'll make sure your group stays cool, connected, and on schedule while navigating Cambridge's busy streets.
What types of vehicles do you offer in Cambridge, Massachusetts?
+Cambridge Charter Bus offers a wide range of vehicles to fit any group size or event. You can choose from minibus options holding 15 to 35 passengers, full-size motorcoaches with seats for 40 to 56 riders, sprinter vans for 6 to 15 passengers, party buses for 10 to 50 guests, and sprinter vans for 8 to 14 passengers.

+As a general rule of thumb, it's best to book your Cambridge charter bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance. The earlier the better! This is especially important if your group trip falls during the busy spring season (April-June) when Harvard and MIT hold commencement ceremonies, or the peak of New England's fall foliage (October), when hotel accommodations and transportation services are in high demand. While we can accommodate last-minute reservations, advanced notice ensures your group has the best selection of vehicles-from sprinter vans to full-size motorcoaches-and you avoid higher rates caused by limited inventory.
Our experienced reservation team is available 24/7/365 at 862-354-9340 to help you coordinate a custom rental plan that fits your itinerary and budget, no matter the season.
Popular Cambridge Charter Bus Destinations
Cambridge Charter Bus provides reliable transportation for every local destination your group needs to reach. We regularly serve the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (77 Massachusetts Ave), Harvard Square (18 Brattle St), Kendall Square (355 Main St), and the CambridgeSide mall (100 CambridgeSide Place). Because these areas have limited parking and heavy traffic, a private bus rental helps your group bypass the stress of circling congested garages or paying high rideshare fees.
For school field trips, we frequently provide charter bus rentals to the Harvard Museum of Natural History (26 Oxford St) and the MIT Museum (314 Main St). For corporate events, many of our clients host meetings at the Cambridge Innovation Center (One Broadway) or the Microsoft New England Research & Development Center (1 Memorial Drive). No matter your destination, our drivers know how to navigate Cambridge's one-way streets, bike lanes, and restricted residential zones to keep your itinerary running on time.

Head of the Charles Regatta
The Head of the Charles Regatta is the world's largest three-day rowing event, drawing over 400,000 spectators to the Charles River every October. Coordinating transportation for a group here is nearly impossible without a dedicated driver. Cambridge Charter Bus provides seamless race-day shuttles that navigate around Memorial Drive closures and heavy traffic on JFK Street. Your driver will drop your group near the Fiedler Footbridge or Soldiers Field Road so you can walk straight to key viewing spots like the Weeks Footbridge without worrying about parking.
Address: Charles River (Cambridge Side), Cambridge, MA 02138
Phone: (617) 868-6200

Harvard Stadium
Game day at Harvard Stadium means navigating Allston's notorious gridlock-especially during the annual Harvard-Yale Game, which draws over 50,000 fans. Our company eliminates the stress by dropping your group right at the Gordon Track circle. Your driver handles the bottlenecked traffic on North Harvard Street while you tailgate in Lot 1 with a stocked minibus cooler. We recommend booking early; oversized vehicle passes sell out weeks before kickoff, and last-minute rideshares surge beyond reason.
Address: 79 N Harvard St, Allston, MA 02134
Phone: (617) 495-2211

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Commencement
MIT Commencement brings over 15,000 attendees to the heart of Cambridge, making campus navigation a nightmare for uncoordinated groups. Cambridge Charter Bus ensures your family or student group arrives together with a pre-arranged drop-off at the Vassar Street loop. Your driver will stage off-campus while you celebrate in Killian Court. This eliminates the need to fight for limited West Garage permits or walk long distances from distant lots.
Address: 77 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139
Phone: (617) 253-4795

Cambridge River Festival
The Cambridge River Festival shuts down Memorial Drive entirely, turning Central Square into a pedestrian-only zone packed with over 150,000 attendees. Driving solo is impossible, and rideshare surge pricing skyrockets. Cambridge Charter Bus coordinates a smooth drop-off for your art collective or school group near JFK Street. Your driver stages outside the city center while you enjoy the festival, ensuring a hassle-free exit when you're ready.
Address: Memorial Drive (between JFK St and Western Ave), Cambridge, MA 02138
Phone: (617) 349-4380

Sanders Theatre (Memorial Hall)
Sanders Theatre sits in the dense Harvard Delta, where street parking is nonexistent and traffic crawls through Harvard Square. Cambridge Charter Bus solves this logistical headache by dropping your audience or choir group at the designated Cambridge Street cut-out. After unloading, your driver relocates to the 52 Oxford St lot-eliminating the risk of tickets or long walks. Navigating Kirkland Street avoids the worst of the Square's congestion.
Address: 45 Quincy St, Cambridge, MA 02138
Phone: (617) 496-2222

Museum of Science, Boston
The Museum of Science is a top destination for school field trips, but organizing dozens of cars or multiple yellow buses is chaotic. Cambridge Charter Bus simplifies logistics by pulling directly into the museum's motorcoach lane for a safe, curbside unload. Your driver either parks in the main garage (if height allows) or stages nearby, remaining on standby while your students explore the exhibits. This eliminates the need to coordinate multiple arrival times or pay for separate garages.
Address: 1 Science Park, Boston, MA 02114
Phone: (617) 723-2500
