Is a school bus best for my event?

“Simple” and “local” are the two best words that describe recommended uses of school buses.  Examples of some of our customers who rent school buses: festival and special event shuttles from remote parking locations, class field trips, soccer, basketball and volleyball away games,  youth group all night events, short hotel shuttles to restaurants, airports, or off-site meeting locations, along with any event transportation requiring a smaller budget than motorcoaches.
