Upgrade Your Tacoma Field Trip Bus Rental With Premium Amenities
No two school trips are the same—which is why our fleet offers a variety of bus sizes and floor plans to fit your exact needs. Smaller groups can book an 18-, 20-, or 25-passenger minibus that’s easy to maneuver through city streets and tight parking lots, while larger classes and full-grade outings will appreciate the spacious seating and extra storage on a 56-passenger motorcoach. Traveling with chaperones, band instruments, or athletic equipment? There’s plenty of room for everyone and everything.
And this isn’t the old-school yellow bus you rode as a kid. Today’s charter buses come loaded with amenities that keep students comfortable and engaged on even the longest trips. Upgrade your field trip with reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful A/C, and tinted windows. Flat-screen monitors at the front and mid-cabin make it easy to show educational videos or trip announcements, while USB ports at every seat keep devices charged. Some models even include a rear restroom so you can cut down on pit stops and stay on schedule.
