The Right Bus for Every School Event Transportation Headcount
Getting the right vehicle size for your roster is effortless when you aren't limited to a single company's lot! For smaller academic clubs, debate teams, or faculty transfers from Dane County Regional Airport, you can book an 11- to 14-passenger sprinter van with a driver or a nimble 15-passenger minibus to 35-passenger minibus that handles tight downtown turns around the Capitol Square with ease. Moving an entire grade level or marching band down the US-12/18 Beltline? Reserve one or several 56-passenger charter buses equipped with undercarriage luggage bays for heavy instruments, overhead storage bins for backpacks, and an onboard restroom to minimize highway stops, and compare all our bus types in seconds!
