“Charter up is a great service that I and my family has used several times to rent buses and compare prices. Pricing is more transparent and the people at Charter up are super accommodating. The cancellation policy makes it a lot easier to book without any risk. It’s such a relief to know where our bus is and who the driver is ahead of time.”

“On the day of the trip I received a tracking link when the bus was on the way. Got a notification that the bus was in front of the lobby to get picked up. The driver was very courteous and thoughtful! We were really satisfied with CharterUp and ended up giving the driver a nice gratuity at the end.”

“I used CharterUP for my wedding in Nahant, MA. We had about 100 guests that needed to be shuttled from Salem, MA, to Nahant, MA, which was about a 30 minute trip. I had to make several changes in the itinerary leading up to the wedding, and CharterUP was great at updating the changes and communicating them with the local company. I had a positive experience overall and would recommend them!”
