More About School Buses
Finding the right school bus rental in Fresno is easy when you can compare multiple vehicle types side by side in one place. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10 to 24 adults, making them a smart pick for smaller youth groups, church outings, or after-school programs heading to destinations like Chaffee Zoo (894 W Belmont Ave, Fresno, CA 93728) or Woodward Park (7775 Friant Road, Fresno, CA 93720). Roeding Park has entrances on Belmont Avenue and Olive Avenue; weekend and holiday traffic can mean longer lines, and Olive is an alternative when Belmont is backed up.
Traveling by school bus keeps the group together instead of organizing separate car arrivals. Woodward Park’s posted entrance fee is $5 per vehicle, or $7 on listed holidays, which isn't included in your free price quote. Need to move a bigger crowd?
A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, so sports teams, academic groups, and faith organizations can travel together across the San Joaquin Valley.
