School Field Trip Bus Rentals in Boston, Cape Cod, Rhode Island & NYC

The Service
Field Trip Transportation Built Around Student Safety
Choose a 56-passenger Mercedes Setra coach, a 48-passenger Freightliner or a 24 to 27-passenger shuttle bus sized to your class, with room under the floor for backpacks, lunches and project materials. Every coach is DOT-inspected every six months, serviced every three months and tracked by GPS with speeding and harsh-braking alerts, so administrators know where the group is at all times. Popular trips include the Museum of Science, New England Aquarium, the Freedom Trail and Plimoth Patuxet in Massachusetts, Roger Williams Park Zoo and the Newport mansions in Rhode Island, and Cape Cod National Seashore. For New York City trips we handle Midtown drop-offs, museum loading zones and Broadway matinees. Coaches start at $195 per hour for shuttle buses and $250 per hour for full-size coaches, with tolls included in every quote.
