More About School Buses
Not every student group is the same size, and the school Buses Available through the network reflect that. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — a great fit for a small after-school club heading down I-20 to the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum on John Lewis Freedom Parkway, or a tight group making the run up GA-400 to a North Georgia science camp. When the headcount is bigger, Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, making them the right call for full class trips to Zoo Atlanta on Cherokee Avenue or a full-day visit to Fernbank Museum of Natural History on Clifton Road in Druid Hills.
One vehicle, every seat filled, everyone arriving at the same entrance at the same time. Compare both types side by side through this website and find the one that actually fits your group!

A Tuesday field trip from a DeKalb County school to the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science equivalent — say, Fernbank Science Center on Heaton Park Drive — prices differently than a Saturday all-day charter running your youth group from Marietta down I-75 to the National Center for Civil and Human Rights on Ivan Allen Jr. Boulevard.
