School Field Trip Bus Rentals: Why to Rent a Bus for School Field Trips

If you’re a Chicago-based educator and want to plan an exciting, educational, and enjoyable field trip for your students, renting a coach bus through Chicago Motor Coach is a smart idea. After all, the safety and happiness of your students will be your responsibility. Renting a bus will be easier for your students to get to their fun field trip whether it’s to a museum, art gallery or local attraction if they ride in a comfortable and safe charter bus.

School buses are ok. However, they don’t offer the same level of comfort to students. For example, they don’t have seats with plenty of legroom and other amenities that students will be able to enjoy when they ride in one of our charter motorcoaches! When you choose to hire a coach for your next field trip, you’ll reward your students and give the special event a sense of adventure. You’ll set the stage for the field trip of a lifetime!

Pamper Your Hard-Working Students

Kids or teens will feel pampered when they step onto one of our coach buses. They’ll feel like rock stars or pro athletes who are getting onto their very own “tour bus”.

Renting a coach bus is a nice thing to do for your hard-working students and it’s more affordable than you might expect. Our coach bus rentals are competitively-priced, so don’t assume that a coach bus is too expensive for your budget. Instead, talk to us and get a quote!

The Benefits of Renting a Bus For School Field Trips

If you’re planning a school field trip, you’re likely thinking about the possibility of renting a bus. Bus companies for school field trips offer some distinct advantages over other forms of transportation, including:

• Improved Safety – You’ll only have to rely on the driving skills of one highly-vetted driver, rather than numerous parents or chaperones
• Easier Coordination – Don’t waste energy worrying about getting all of your kids to the field trip location via a number of different drivers. There are too many variables to think of, including some cars getting lost or having mechanical issues.
• More Flexibility – If the trip takes longer than planned, or if the weather turns and you need to get home quickly, you’ll be able to get home whenever you need.
• Comfort – Keeping your kids happier and more comfortable can alter and improve the entire tone of your trip.
• Environmentally Friendly – Don’t clog up the roads with multiple vehicles. With one bus rental, you’ll reduce emissions and keep the road free from extra cars.
