South Bend Historical Site, Capitol Tour & Civic Field Trip Charter Buses

Give your students a history lesson they’ll never forget with a private charter bus to South Bend’s top museums and civic landmarks! When visiting The History Museum and the Studebaker National Museum, your driver can pull right into the circular bus drop-off driveway at 808 W Washington Street to unload your class, then park in the free museum surface lot at Washington and Chapin Streets. Heading to the Potawatomi Zoo at 500 S Greenlawn Avenue? Your bus can drop students off curbside by the main plaza entrance and wait in the designated oversized bus spaces at the back of the main lot off Mishawaka Avenue! You can even take your civics class down US-31 South to the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis, where buses unload along Senate Avenue!
Bus Rentals for School Sports Teams

You’ll love how comfortable your athletes, coaches, and band members feel riding together in a climate-controlled sports team charter bus! Skip the caravan of parent cars and stash all your bulky pads, coolers, and instruments underneath the bus in spacious undercarriage storage bays while players stretch out in reclining seats. Heading to a baseball tournament or team outing at Four Winds Field? Your driver can navigate downtown traffic on Lafayette Boulevard, drop the roster off along South Street by Gate A, and park in the oversized surface spaces in Lot C off Taylor Street so your ride is waiting right after the final inning!
Student Shuttles at South Bend Colleges and Universities

It’s easier than ever to arrange campus tours, intercampus shuttles, and student organization travel across Michiana! Prospective high schoolers touring the University of Notre Dame can get dropped off right at the Eck Visitors Center turnaround off Notre Dame Avenue, while your driver stages in the designated charter bus lanes at the Joyce & Compton Lots off Angela Boulevard. Visiting Indiana University South Bend? Your minibus can navigate Mishawaka Avenue and unload students right outside the Administration Building at 1700 Mishawaka Avenue before parking in the visitor surface lots along Esther Street. We also help Saint Mary’s College, Bethel University, and Holy Cross College book recurring campus shuttles or airport transfers at South Bend International (SBN)! You choose the bus and schedule that works for YOUR campus!
Long Distance Bus Rentals in South Bend

Take your students straight west on I-80/I-90 (the Indiana Toll Road) for a museum day at Chicago’s Museum Campus, or head east into Michigan and Ohio for regional robotics tournaments without anyone feeling cramped. Onboard restrooms minimize highway rest stops, while WiFi, individual power outlets, and DVD/TV monitors keep students entertained for hours on the road. Plus, because we tap into one of the largest networks of bus companies in South Bend, Mishawaka, Elkhart, and all of Indiana, you can easily book multiple 56-passenger motorcoaches for the whole graduating class. Just share your multi-day itinerary once, and the team will help you map out every stop!
