It was a great experience from beginning to end again! Thank you, First Charter Bus Rental!
Dale was right on time, got us where we needed to be, navigated the narrow city streets without difficulty and was flexible in minor schedule changes and parking and pick up locations. Thanks again.

First Charter Bus Rental / First Student made it easy to charter the experience for us, even under less than ideal circumstances. Our driver was prompt, friendly and flexible while we adjusted our schedule to fit sudden needs. The customer service and billing departments were also very helpful in making the experience smooth for us. Transportation went from being a source of anxiety to a source of relief thanks to First Student.
Dale was a great host

Awesome Driver!!!
The driver was wonderful! Francis was prompt, kind, and his communication was excellent. Each year we have had great drivers but this year our guests asked if we could request Francis next year! Our trip was smooth and stress free. Thank you!
The bus drivers were wonderful
The bus drivers were wonderful! The entire experience was extremely easy and smooth. I would highly recommend working with First Student from Mt. Nebo for your next event.
Dave our bus driver was amazing!
Wrong Time for Reception pickup
At my reception, my DJ made an announcement at 9:14pm that the last bus was leaving. Unsure of where he got this information as my two bus pick ups at end of reception was 1030pm and 11pm. My mom went to the bus driver who had told the DJ and the bus driver got rude with my mom and told her to read the contract. She then asked him to continue reading because 1030 and 11 were the correct times. By this time guests were on the bus. Mind you my reception started at 6 and was over at 11. Between the communication between the DJ and bus driver, my reception was cleared out by 10-1030 and not at the end time. I cried half of my reception over your bus driver reporting inaccurate pick up times to the DJ therefore clearing out my reception because I had multiple guests tell me how worried they were they would miss the bus. My hotel lobby was filled with guests wondering where we were and I explained that we in fact took the last bus and they said they had been at the hotel well over an hour and were back by 10-1030. I couldn’t be more disappointed in my experience.
The worst customer service
The booking process has become difficult and takes several phone calls. I had to reach out 3 times and still wasn't confident that a bus would arrive. The cost is very high and I expected good service. The bus driver was48 minutes late which cut our time on the field trip in half. This experience was horrendous.
Brian was an excellent driver
Brian was an excellent driver, on time, and even scooped out the remote location for us to ensure that we arrived on time and in the right place.
Thank you!
A huge thank you!
We at the Community School West are very impressed at the level of customer service we received. Everyone involved in our "last minute" request were more than accomodating. I can't say enough about the Mt Nebo team (Beverly and Leslie) as well as (Kali, Felicia and Shaun) in the Philadelphia Charter Office. Thank you very much for all you did to make our field trips happen again on such short notice. Andrea Milinkovic

Dave and Mike took great care of our guests for our sons wedding! We would suggest chartering with First Student for any weddings or events. We kept our guests safe while letting them enjoy our wedding without worrying about drinking and driving.
Review of First Charter Bus
Dennis the bus driver was so friendly and professional! The only issue was I had difficulty booking the bus and finding someone to talk to, but the day of the event went great.

First Charter is top notch!
We used First Charter to transport over 200 students recently, and I couldn't have been happier with their service. Every person I talked to on the phone was so patient and helpful; every time I hung up I told whoever was with me about how nice they were. I would highly recommend First Charter to anyone who is looking for group transportation. They made every step of the process easy and enjoyable. Thank you, First Charter!
The driver was great 5 stars

Our bus driver was Ed which we had two years in a row.
Everyone loves him. We get our bus out of the Mt Nebo Location.
Beverly from that location is always super friendly and very informative. Will use this again next year. THANKS
