Yes, for overnight and multi-day trips, groups are responsible for providing hotel accommodations for the driver. The hotel should offer safe, comfortable lodging with convenient parking for the bus. Most groups book the driver’s room at the same property as the main group to simplify logistics. Single-day and local charters do not require separate driver lodging. If you have questions about driver accommodations, our team is happy to help coordinate arrangements that meet both your budget and the driver’s needs.

No, your quote does not include tolls, parking fees, or entrance fees to certain venues. These additional expenses are the responsibility of the group and should be paid directly during the trip.

It’s important to budget for toll roads, bridge crossings, and parking at hotels, event venues, or attractions. If you have specific questions about potential extra fees, just ask our reservation specialists when booking.
