More About School Buses
With one search, you can instantly compare school bus options supplied by Detroit-area transportation companies. The network includes Type A mini school buses and Type B small school buses, each seating approximately 10 to 24 adults — ideal for smaller student groups heading to the Michigan Science Center (5020 John R St, Detroit, MI 48202). Buses park on nearby streets along Farnsworth, Brush, or Warren Avenue, so your group can arrive together in one vehicle.
At the Detroit Institute of Arts (5200 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI 48202), the group leader checks in at the entrance on John R Street, giving a class arriving together by bus one coordinated check-in point. For larger groups, Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44 to 48 adults, making them a strong fit for full-class field trips across the Detroit school district. You choose!

How much does a School Bus cost?
If you are budgeting for a school bus rental in Detroit, here is what to expect from the network: weekday hourly rates run $205 to $365 per hour, weekend hourly rates run $240 to $380 per hour, and full-day rates range from $1,670 to $2,335 per day. Your final price depends on the bus type, trip duration, and the specific provider you select. A Type A mini school bus shuttling 12 students to the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History (315 E Warren Ave, Detroit, MI 48201) will cost differently than a full-size Type C conventional school bus transporting 48 students on a multi-stop tour through Greenfield Village (20900 Oakwood Blvd., Dearborn, MI 48124-5029).
At The Wright, buses drop visitors at the Warren Avenue entrance and park along Warren, Farnsworth, or Brush Street.
