Tour Bus Rental Los Angeles: Prevost Entertainer Coaches with CDL Drivers

A tour bus rental in Los Angeles starts at $180 per day with Knights Coaches, runs on custom-converted Prevost H3-45 and X3-45 coaches, and includes a CDL-certified driver plus 24/7 dispatch on every booking. We carry coaches with 6 to 14 bunks, full galleys, private rear lounges, and onboard showers, so your crew sleeps between LA and the next date instead of losing a night to a hotel run.

Why Touring Professionals in LA Choose Knights — Knights Coaches

Why Touring Professionals in LA Choose Knights

Touring crews book us because the coach, the driver, and the support all come from one operator. Knights Coaches runs a fleet of over 20 Prevost coaches, the same H3-45 and X3-45 platforms used by Dreamliner and Pioneer Coach. We hold a current US DOT number, register with the FMCSA, and sit on the Entertainer Motorcoach Council (EMC) roster.

Los Angeles is one of the busiest pickup markets in the country for entertainer coaches, and the venues here punish operators who improvise. Drivers need to handle the 101 at load-out time, the parking limits around the Greek Theatre and the Hollywood Bowl, and a 2am departure to a Bay Area date. Every Knights driver holds a CDL Class A or Class B license, carries a clean DOT medical card, and has at least three years on entertainer coaches specifically. Not charter buses. Coaches. That distinction matters when your front lounge is full of gear and your tour manager needs the bus moved during a soundcheck.

You can read more about the company on our about us page. The credentials behind the fleet are what keep us moving on schedule, and the fleet itself is where most LA bookings begin.

Pricing for an LA Entertainer Coach Rental — Knights Coaches

Pricing for an LA Entertainer Coach Rental

Pricing depends on the coach class, the bunk count, and how long you hold it. Our published daily rates run from $180 to $320 per day for short-term work, with the Atlas (Premium, 10 bunks, single slide) at $180, the Outlaw (Elite, 12 bunks, double slide) at $250, and the Thunder (Premium, 12 bunks, double slide) at $320. Longer holds drop the daily figure. A tour that runs three weeks out of LA costs less per day than a single weekend pickup, because the coach and driver stay committed to one client.

Two costs sit outside the daily rate. Fuel and driver per diem are billed to the tour, which is standard across every entertainer coach operator in the market. We give you a transparent breakdown before you confirm, so the number you approve is the number you pay. There is no surge pricing tied to festival weekends or a Coachella-adjacent date, unlike some LA charter brokers who flex rates when demand spikes.

If you are weighing a short run against a full leg, the choice between renting by the day and committing to a leasing agreement changes the math. Rates aside, the next thing most LA clients ask about is which coach they actually get.

The Prevost Fleet You Can Book in Los Angeles — Knights Coaches

The Prevost Fleet You Can Book in Los Angeles

Our fleet splits into three classes, and each coach is named and bookable individually rather than pooled into a generic category. The Elite class runs on the Prevost X3-45 chassis, the newest and quietest platform Prevost builds. The Premium class runs the H3-45, the workhorse of the touring industry. The Standard class covers tighter budgets without dropping the conversion quality.

Bunk counts range from 6 to 14 across the fleet, with single, double, and triple slide-out floor plans. A six-bunk coach suits a solo artist with a small crew. A 14-bunk coach moves a full band plus techs and a tour manager on one vehicle. Every coach carries a separate rear area, either a lounge with a sofa sleeper or a master suite, plus a full galley, a bathroom, and an onboard shower. The star configuration rear suite, common on the Elite coaches, gives the headliner a private room behind the bunk bay.

You can browse every coach by name, bunk count, and slide configuration on our fleet page. Picking the coach is step one. Knowing where we can take it is step two, and in LA that reach extends well beyond the city line.

Service Coverage Across Los Angeles and Southern California — Knights Coaches

Service Coverage Across Los Angeles and Southern California

Coverage runs across the entire Los Angeles metro and the surrounding Southern California region. We pick up and drop off anywhere in greater LA, including the entertainment-district venues in Hollywood, the rehearsal spaces in North Hollywood, and the production lots in Burbank. From there, common pickup and drop-off points include Anaheim, Santa Monica, Long Beach, Huntington Beach, and Pasadena.

Los Angeles tours rarely stay local. A coach booked here usually runs the West Coast leg first, Las Vegas, Phoenix, San Francisco, Seattle, then either turns east or wraps in LA at the end of a national run. Because our fleet positions primarily out of Nashville and the Mid-Atlantic, an LA booking includes a deadhead leg to get the coach to your start point, which we factor into the quote upfront rather than surprising you later.

We cover all 48 contiguous states, so the same coach that picks you up in LA can finish in Atlanta, Chicago, or New York without a vehicle swap. The nationwide reach is covered in full on our nationwide tour bus rental page. Coverage is one half of the booking. The other half is gear, and most LA tours move more than people.

Tour Trucking for LA Backline and Production Gear — Knights Coaches

Tour Trucking for LA Backline and Production Gear

Tour trucking moves the equipment your coach cannot. We run a separate trucking division with enclosed trailers, box trucks, and flatbeds for backline, merchandise, and production gear. Booking the coach and the truck from one operator means a single point of contact for routing, a single dispatch team, and no finger-pointing when a load-in runs late at a downtown LA venue.

A typical LA production tour pairs a 12-bunk coach for the band and crew with an enclosed trailer for the lighting rig, the merch, and the instruments. The trailer follows the same route as the coach, so your gear arrives when you do. The full tour bus rental service ties the coach and the trucking together under one agreement. Once you know the coach and the gear plan, booking takes four steps.

Tour Bus Coverage Across Boston and Beyond — Knights Coaches

Tour Bus Coverage Across Boston and Beyond

Coverage reaches every state in the contiguous US, with Boston a primary Northeast pickup market alongside New York, Philadelphia and Washington DC. The fleet positions mainly in Nashville and the Mid-Atlantic, then deadheads to your Boston pickup with the deadhead distance shown on the quote upfront.

Inside Greater Boston, pickup works downtown near TD Garden, around Fenway near MGM Music Hall and the House of Blues, out in Allston-Brighton near Roadrunner, and anywhere a tour stages. From there the coach runs the corridor or heads cross-country. Cross-border runs into Canada for tours adding Toronto or Montreal dates get quoted case-by-case. Hawaii and Alaska sit outside the service area. Touring crews raise the questions below most often before they book.

What’s Included in Every Rental

Each rental ships with the same core inclusions, regardless of class or lease length. Six factors separate Knights Coaches from the broader entertainer coach market.

  • Prevost-only fleet

    Every coach runs on the H3-45 or X3-45 chassis. No MCI, no Setra, no van conversions. The platform is the industry default for overnight touring because it absorbs 12-plus hour driving days without the suspension fatigue that hits cheaper builds after a few seasons.

  • 24/7 dispatch

    Tours break down at 3 AM. Routes change mid-leg when a venue cancels. Our line answers either call in minutes.

  • EMC member

    Membership in the Entertainer Motorcoach Council carries safety, insurance, and service standards that exceed DOT minimums.

  • CDL drivers with entertainer experience

    A clean license alone doesn’t qualify someone to drive a coach with 12 sleeping passengers through a winter mountain pass. Three years on entertainer-specific routes does.

  • 48-state coverage

    Pickup and drop in any major US city: Nashville, LA, NYC, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Miami, Las Vegas, Denver, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, Phoenix, Washington DC, and dozens more.

  • Same-driver continuity on leases

    Multi-month lease clients keep the same driver when scheduling allows. Booking starts with a short four-step process.

Frequently asked questions

We operate across all 48 contiguous states with pickup and drop-off in any major US city. Hawaii and Alaska fall outside the operational footprint because no commercial route accommodates a 45-foot Prevost.

Every quote is built from four components: the daily coach-and-driver rate, a fuel surcharge on actual mileage, the deadhead from our nearest positioning hub, and the return deadhead — each shown line by line on the contract.

The deadhead is the distance our coach travels from its nearest positioning hub to your pickup city (and back at tour end), billed at a reduced rate that does not include the full daily charge.

Our fleet concentrates in Nashville, Tennessee and the Mid-Atlantic region, which puts a coach within a half-day drive of most major venue corridors east of the Mississippi.

Yes, case-by-case. Cross-border runs require the chauffeur to carry a valid passport, advance customs documentation, and the appropriate CBSA paperwork. The quote includes the extra administrative time and any brokerage fees.

Yes. Our tour trucking package moves backline, merch and production gear in enclosed trailers, box trucks or flatbeds traveling alongside the coach — single-source coordination on one contract.

Bookings made 60-plus days out get first-pick fleet selection. Last-minute requests under 14 days book against remaining availability, with peak season (March through October) tightening windows further.

It depends on daily mileage and DOT hours-of-service limits. Each quote includes a one-driver-or-two recommendation for the distances your routing involves.
