More About School Buses
Need to move a small group of students across town or a larger class to an all-day event? The bus types available through Charterbusrentalsandiego.com's network cover both ends of the spectrum for school bus rentals in San Diego. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10 to 24 adults, a smart, nimble choice for compact groups heading to venues like the Fleet Science Center (1875 El Prado, San Diego, CA 92101) where parking is tight.
The Fleet asks field-trip groups to arrange their own transportation and schedule a bus immediately after reserving, so you can line up the class ride as soon as the visit is set. Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44 to 48 adults, giving full classrooms plenty of seating for the trip. Charterbusrentalsandiego.com connects you with a large network of independently owned San Diego transportation companies so you're never stuck with just one option.

Common School Bus Amenities to Compare
Charterbusrentalsandiego.com helps San Diego school groups stop settling for whatever single bus option they can find locally. Because Charterbusrentalsandiego.com is not a bus company, you can browse TONS of amenity combinations across buses in a large network of independently owned transportation companies. Many San Diego school bus rentals include air conditioning, padded seating, PA systems for teacher announcements, and overhead storage for backpacks and gear.
Some models come with WiFi and power outlets, keeping chaperones connected during longer rides to destinations like the Cabrillo National Monument (1800 Cabrillo Memorial Dr, San Diego, CA 92106). Buses unload and pick up in the traffic circle near the flagpole and park in designated spaces in the middle bay of the main parking lot, giving the class one place to meet at arrival and pickup.

What does a School Bus rental cost?
Rather than guessing at school bus rental prices in San Diego, you can get a personalized quote in under 30 seconds right through Charterbusrentalsandiego.com. Weekday hourly rates run $205 to $365 per hour, weekend hourly rates range from $240 to $380 per hour, and full-day rates come in at $1,670 to $2,335 per day, with the final figure shaped by your bus type, trip duration, and specific itinerary. A Type A mini school bus for a quick half-day run to the Birch Aquarium at Scripps (2300 Expedition Way, La Jolla, CA 92037) will land at a very different price point than a Type C conventional bus booked for a full school day.
Buses drop off at Birch Aquarium in the traffic circle by the Whale Fountain and cannot park in the aquarium lot, so your group needs a separate bus pickup plan after the visit. Fill out one quick form, compare packages from a large network of San Diego bus companies, and choose the option that fits YOUR budget, with no account needed!
