More About School Buses
Keep in mind that not all school buses are the same size, and that is actually great news for your group! Through the network, you can find Type A mini school buses and Type B small school buses that seat approximately 10 to 24 adults, perfect for smaller youth groups heading to the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center (717 General Booth Blvd, Virginia Beach, VA 23451) or a church group making a short trip across town. At the Aquarium, buses park in designated spaces near the North Building boat dock or in the East Lot across the street, since the South Building has no oversized-vehicle parking spaces.
That gives your group a designated bus parking area for its visit. For larger groups, a Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, making it ideal for full classrooms heading to school field trip transportation across Hampton Roads!

Common Amenities Available on School Bus Rentals
On a school bus rental in Virginia Beach, your group can choose a no-frills school bus, but that does not mean you are stuck without options. Many school buses in the network come equipped with air conditioning to handle Virginia Beach's humid coastal summers, bench seating, and a PA system your group leader can use to keep passengers informed and engaged during the ride. Heading to First Landing State Park (2500 Shore Dr, Virginia Beach, VA 23451) or a tournament at Kellam High School (2665 West Neck Road, Virginia Beach, VA 23456)?
