More About School Buses
Need to move a smaller group of students to the NCAR Mesa Lab (1850 Table Mesa Dr, Boulder, CO 80305) for a science field trip up the winding Table Mesa Drive? A Type A mini or Type B small school bus seats approximately 10 to 24 adults and is the smarter fit for narrower mountain road approaches — including the canyon road into Eldorado Canyon State Park (9 Kneale Rd, Eldorado Springs, CO 80025), where the access road is tight and a full-size coach can be a real challenge. For larger groups heading to open-lot destinations like Chautauqua Park (900 Baseline Rd, Boulder, CO 80302) or the Celestial Seasonings Factory (4600 Sleepytime Dr, Boulder, CO 80301), a Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults and keeps everyone together in one vehicle.
Compare both sizes side by side through Bouldercharterbuscompany.com and find the right fit for YOUR trip!
