My drivers (Jeff & Michael) were super friendly & flexible when we needed to adjust our schedule. Great service!

From start to finishAbsolutely incredible experience with CharterUp, and especially with our driver, Ben K.

From start to finish, Ben went above and beyond. He was exceptionally responsive, kept in close communication the entire evening, and made sure our group felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. His professionalism, punctuality, and calm presence made the night run seamlessly. Booking through CharterUp was equally smooth — the process was straightforward, the communication was clear, and everything happened exactly as promised. Between the ease of working with the company and the outstanding service from Ben, this was hands‑down one of the best transportation experiences we’ve had. I would absolutely book with CharterUp again and would request Ben every time.

Quilt Shop Hop Tour

I began working with Charter up in late February. I found it was best to speak with a person rather than try to communicate on line. Everyone I spoke with was very helpful! 5 stars!!! We did switch to a smaller bus about 2 weeks before our trip. When to bus arrived it was not as clean as we expected. There were clothes, blankets, food and alcohol in the bins which did not belong to us but took up room. Some of the seats were damaged which made it uncomfortable for us. The driver was difficult to communicate with in English although we had a different driver for the second day. If we rent a bus again for this trip I will be more specific about cleanliness and condition of the bus.

When I had trouble with the return…

When I had trouble with the return trip, Tia saved the day! Quickly and efficiently she changed itinerary and recovered a bus And driver!

Booking, Staff, and Service are Top-Notch

Booking was easy, the staff was prompt to respond to questions, and the service was top-notch.

The driver was very good.

X, y, l company

The driver was very careful & helped us get on and off the bus. He was prompt to pick us up & return us home. The company needs to have a step stool available because the bus doesn't kneel & the steps are very high.

Do NOT Use CharterUp

Do NOT Use CharterUp I am a small tour operator. Most of the time we use vans, but sometimes we charter buses for larger groups. Twelve years ago, I had a bad experience with a bus broker, US Coachways. Less than 24 hours before departure, they told me the bus company had canceled and a replacement would cost 50% more. I paid. I had no choice and swore off bus brokers. Three years ago, I reluctantly used CharterUp for a tour in Texas. Despite being a broker, it went smoothly. This year, I booked and prepaid a bus through CharterUp for another weeklong tour. At 7:30 PM the night before pickup, CharterUp informed me that the underlying carrier, Azteca, had canceled. They offered a replacement bus costing 55% more, though they would "cover" part of the increase, leaving me to pay 35% more. They gave me one hour to respond. By the time I reached them about 70 minutes later, they said they had released the replacement bus and my only option was a refund. The explanations for the cancellation were inconsistent. One representative cited selective cancellations; the next day a supervisor said Azteca claimed a DOT compliance issue. Neither explanation inspired confidence. With 25 clients waiting to travel, I scrambled to arrange alternative transportation. I ultimately found an independent operator and completed the trip, but only after significant stress and an additional $3,068 in costs. CharterUp refunded my original payment but provided no compensation for the extra expenses caused by the cancellation. My concerns with CharterUp are: * Last-minute cancellations followed by much more expensive alternatives. * Inconsistent communication. * Inadequate oversight of carriers. * Failure to stand behind a fully prepaid reservation despite marketing promises of reliability and 24/7 support. My advice: work directly with reputable bus operators whenever possible and avoid broker networks. Use AI to find bus companies NOT working with CharterUp.

Great company- easy to work with- excellent contracts- ease of down payments and final payments and the buses were just what we were looking for - we got 2- 56 foot coaches with all amenities!!
