More About School Buses
Tempecharterbus.com can connect your school or organization with several different school bus sizes depending on how many students and chaperones are making the trip. A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, making it the go-to choice for full-class field trips and large youth group outings across the greater Tempe area. Smaller groups traveling to destinations like Tempe Center for the Arts (700 W Rio Salado Pkwy, Tempe, AZ 85281) or the Arizona Museum of Natural History (53 N MacDonald, Mesa, AZ 85201) can book a Type A mini or Type B small school bus, which seats approximately 10 to 24 adults.
Whatever your headcount, there is a school bus in the network that fits! At Tempe Center for the Arts, buses can drop off passengers in front of the main entrance via the main driveway, then park in the west-side parking lot. That gives your group one clear place to unload before the bus parks.
At the Arizona Museum of Natural History, school groups unload at the bus pullout on Pepper Street near MacDonald Street, and buses can park near the museum. Your bus keeps the group together for drop-off and avoids a separate parking search for each family.
