Why Choose Ann Arbor Minibus Company?
We know that every school group has unique transportation needs, which is why we offer one of the largest and most diverse fleets in Michigan. Need a full-size charter bus with an onboard restroom for a day trip to the Henry Ford Museum? We’ve got it. Planning a quick outing to the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum with just a single class? A 20-passenger minibus will do the trick. Taking a high school band or robotics team to state finals? Book an executive coach with extra luggage space for instruments or equipment. And if you’re organizing a multi-bus convoy for a district-wide event, we can dispatch as many vehicles as you need—anywhere in Washtenaw County or beyond.
Customizable Field Trip Transportation
With Ann Arbor Minibus Company, you’re always in control of your itinerary. Unlike traditional yellow school buses that operate on fixed schedules and limited routes, our private charters go wherever and whenever you want. Spend the morning touring the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library, then head across town to Nichols Arboretum for an afternoon hike. Take your science club to the Detroit Zoo, your art students to the DIA, or your debate team to a tournament in East Lansing—all without worrying about transfers or missed connections. You set the pickup times, drop-off locations, and pacing of the day; we handle the rest.
And because each rental is tailored to your exact specifications, you can request amenities that make sense for your group. Free WiFi lets kids stream educational videos en route, power outlets keep tablets charged, and DVD players are perfect for screening documentaries or keeping younger children entertained with movies. Overhead parcel racks stow backpacks and lunch coolers, while underfloor bays accommodate larger items like sports gear or musical cases.
Comfortable Buses for Every Grade Level
Today’s students—and teachers—expect more than hard plastic bench seats and rattling windows. That’s why we offer modern coaches outfitted with features designed to keep everyone comfortable and focused during transit. Reclining seats with armrests and adjustable footrests provide ergonomic support for riders of all ages, while climate control ensures a pleasant cabin temperature regardless of Michigan’s unpredictable weather.
For longer journeys, having access to a clean restroom onboard means fewer unscheduled stops and less disruption to your timetable. If your itinerary includes multiple destinations or spans several hours on the road, these little conveniences add up to a much smoother experience overall. And if anyone in your group has mobility challenges, just let us know—we can supply ADA-compliant vehicles with wheelchair lifts and priority seating areas.
Affordable Rates for School Budgets
We understand that cost is a major consideration for most educational institutions, which is why we strive to offer competitive pricing on all our charter bus rentals. Our rates are based on factors like vehicle size, trip duration, mileage, and seasonal demand, but we’re always happy to work within your budget constraints. Splitting the expense across multiple classes or chaperones can make it even more affordable per person, especially compared to reimbursing parents for gas or arranging separate carpools.
Booking early is the best way to secure the lowest fares, especially during peak times like spring field trip season or fall sports tournaments. However, we also accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible—so if you’ve been let down by another provider or need emergency transportation due to unforeseen circumstances, give us a call. We’re committed to making sure no student misses out on a valuable learning opportunity because of logistical hurdles.
Serving Ann Arbor and Beyond
While we’re based right here in Ann Arbor, our service area covers the entire state of Michigan. That means you can book a charter bus to take your students anywhere they need to go—whether it’s a short hop across town or a multi-day excursion to another city. Popular destinations include the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Michigan Science Center, the Henry Ford Museum, and the Toledo Zoo. Planning something farther afield? No problem! We regularly transport groups to Chicago, Cleveland, Toronto, and other major cities in the Midwest. Wherever your curriculum takes you, we’ll get you there safely and comfortably.
