Comfortable, Modern Buses Make Field Trips Better

One of the biggest advantages of renting a charter bus for your next school trip is the difference in comfort compared to traditional yellow school buses. Our fleet includes some of the newest and most well-appointed vehicles on the road, with seating capacities ranging from 18 to 56 passengers, so you can easily match the size of your group without paying for extra empty seats. Charter buses for school trips come loaded with amenities that both students and chaperones will appreciate, including reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC systems, and tinted windows to cut down on glare.

On longer trips, everyone will love having access to flat-screen monitors with DVD players, 110V/USB outlets at every row, and free Wi-Fi for streaming videos or getting homework done. Full-size coaches also include a restroom at the rear of the bus, reducing the number of stops you’ll need to make along the way. There’s plenty of overhead storage for backpacks and jackets, plus underfloor luggage bays on larger models if you’re traveling with suitcases or band equipment. Once you’ve experienced a field trip on a modern charter bus, you’ll never want to go back to riding school buses again!

Custom Itineraries Built Around Your Schedule

When you book a field trip bus from Lexington Coach Bus Service, you’re in complete control of the itinerary. Unlike pre-packaged tours or fixed-route transportation, our service is built around the exact schedule you provide, with pickups and drop-offs at whatever locations work best for your group. That means you can set departure times that fit your bell schedule, add multiple stops throughout the day, or even split into separate vehicles if different classes are visiting different sites.

Planning a trip to the Kentucky Horse Park, the Explorium of Lexington, or the Mary Todd Lincoln House? We’ll get you there right on time and handle all the parking while your students enjoy the experience. Heading out of town for a science excursion to the Red River Gorge or a history tour of Shaker Village? Just send us the full agenda, and we’ll map out the most efficient route between each stop. If your trip includes meals, we can arrange restaurant drop-offs or coordinate with catering services to have lunch waiting when you arrive. At the end of the day, you’ll return to campus together as a group, with no one left behind or scrambling to get you a ride home. It’s field trip transportation exactly the way you want it—simple, flexible, and completely customized to your needs.

Perfect for Athletics, Band Trips, and Academic Competitions

School events don’t stop at field trips—and neither do we. Lexington Coach Bus Service provides charter buses for every type of extracurricular activity, including athletics, marching band, choir, debate, and academic competitions. Coaches and directors love having a single vehicle that can carry both students and equipment, with room for instrument cases, sports gear, and overnight bags. Traveling together keeps everyone on the same schedule and builds team spirit on the road.

If your group has a busy season ahead, ask about setting up a recurring shuttle contract that covers all your away games and tournaments. We’ll assign the same driver whenever possible and make sure you get a bus with the right seating capacity and storage options for your roster. From Friday night football games to weekend band festivals, we’ll be there every step of the way.

Upgrade Your Next Campus Tour With Private Transportation

High school counselors and college-bound students know how important it is to visit campuses in person before making a decision. Unfortunately, organizing a campus tour for a large group can be challenging when everyone has to drive separately or rely on public transportation. Renting a charter bus solves this problem by allowing the entire group to travel together from one college to the next, with plenty of room for luggage and comfortable seating for long hours on the road.

Plan an overnight trip to Louisville to see the University of Louisville and Bellarmine University, or spend a weekend in Nashville touring Vanderbilt and Belmont. With a private bus, you can hit multiple campuses in a single trip without worrying about parking, navigating unfamiliar streets, or keeping track of students in separate vehicles. The bus stays with your group at all times and follows a schedule that you control, making it easy to fit in additional sightseeing or dining stops along the way. It’s the most convenient and cost-effective way to organize college visits for AVID classes, TRIO programs, or any group of prospective students.
