Which should you charter?
Pick the Challenger 604 if you need the extra 90 km (49 nm) of range, you are a group of 11 to 12, you want a wider cabin (36 cm more across) and you travel with a lot of luggage (115 cu ft of baggage space vs 105).
Pick the Gulfstream G200 if you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 0.4 m longer).
The Gulfstream G200 is estimated at $6,800/hr against $8,300/hr for the Challenger 604, about $1,500 less per hour. Real quotes depend on the operator, the aircraft's age and how far it has to fly to reach you.
Example trip: the Challenger 604 can fly London (LTN) to Toronto (YYZ) nonstop, 5,694 km. The Gulfstream G200 would need a fuel stop on that route.
Nonstop means within 90% of published range, before winds, payload and fuel reserves; the operator confirms each route.
