Safety & Maintenance

Leaving the comfort of your hometown for uncharted territory can create excitement and maybe even some anxiety. Having your child or elderly parent on the road, particularly late at night can, cause a lot of worry and sleepless nights.

That's when the safety and security of traveling with a dependable, professional Maine bus company can help. Northeast Charter & Tour Co., Inc. is a recipient of the highest rating standard given for motorcoach transportation companies by the US Department of Transportation. Our experienced, reliable drivers will be on schedule to pick up and drop off your loved ones at our variety of safe, well-marked locations.

All of our passengers can relax and enjoy their outings knowing that their valuables are safely locked in our secure motorcoaches.

Northeast Charter & Tour encourages responsible travel by adhering to the following guidelines:

  • Inform your driver of any health concerns or illnesses.
  • Travel light! If you pack clothes that all match, you can save room in your luggage and still look sharp.
  • And finally, relax and enjoy the ride!

All of our charter tour buses, motorcoaches and shuttle vans are equipped with GPS tracking systems and are carefully evaluated based on mileage, which is about every 60 days by our experienced mechanical crew.

Our 24-hour, 365 day-a-year emergency assistance is standing by to insure that mechanical difficulties will not keep you from your scheduled activities. If for some reason your charter tour bus or shuttle is unable to complete the trip, we will call in an immediate replacement vehicle.
