Are coach buses and charter buses the same?

Coach buses and charter buses are not exactly the same, though they are used interchangeably. Charter buses are typically hired for special purposes like corporate events, tours, and as party bus rentals, while coach buses are more general-purpose tour buses designed for comfort and long-distance travel.

How many people can a charter bus accommodate?

A full-size charter bus typically accommodates 36 to 60 passengers, with the average capacity being around 50 to 60 people, depending on the size and model of the bus.
