Charter Bus Rentals for School Field Trips in Mount Prospect, Illinois

Comfortable Amenities Kids and Teachers Will Love

If you’ve ever ridden a yellow school bus to Springfield, you know they weren’t built for comfort. Charter buses are a different story! Our fleet includes coaches loaded with amenities that make even the longest ride easier on everyone. Keep restless riders occupied with flat-screen TVs and a DVD player—perfect for showing movies or educational videos en route to the Field Museum. Onboard WiFi and power outlets let high schoolers finish homework or stream music from their seats. There’s climate-controlled A/C so nobody overheats on spring trips to Brookfield Zoo, cushioned reclining seats for naps after a day at Six Flags Great America, and overhead storage racks where kids can stash backpacks, lunches, and art projects.

For teachers and chaperones, the biggest perk might be the onboard restroom available on most full-size coaches. Cut down on unscheduled pit stops by letting students use the lavatory whenever they need—it’s a game-changer for trips into downtown Chicago when traffic can turn a 45-minute drive into a two-hour ordeal.

Rent a Bus for Every Kind of Student Trip

Our team has experience providing transportation for all types of school events—not just traditional field trips. Book a charter bus to shuttle your high school marching band to competitions in Peoria, Bloomington-Normal, or even out-of-state venues like Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Athletic directors will appreciate having a dedicated bus to get basketball teams and their gear to playoff games against rival schools in Arlington Heights or Des Plaines. Is your debate club heading to a tournament at Northwestern University? Reserve a minibus so they can travel together, review notes on the way, and arrive refreshed and ready to win.

If your class is doing an overnight excursion—like a senior trip to Cedar Point amusement park or a visit to college campuses across the Midwest—a charter bus is hands-down the best way to get there. Everyone’s luggage stays secure in underfloor bays, the group can watch movies or socialize during the drive, and you’ll make far better time than if everyone carpooled separately.

Keep Students Entertained and Accounted For

One of the hardest parts of any field trip is keeping everyone organized and entertained between destinations. With a private charter bus, your class has a dedicated space where teachers can easily do headcounts, hand out permission slips, or brief students on the day’s schedule. Unlike public transportation or old-school yellow buses, no one outside your group will be onboard—giving you peace of mind and full control.

Long ride into the city? Use the PA system or TV monitors to play an educational video, lead a trivia game about the destination, or start a singalong to keep energy up. Free Wi-Fi lets older students finish assignments or collaborate on Google Docs en route. There’s room to spread out supplies, eat a packed lunch, or just relax so kids arrive calm instead of stir-crazy.

Ada-accessible and Inclusive Transportation

Charter Bus Company Mount Prospect is committed to making sure every student can participate in field trips, including those with disabilities. We provide ADA-accessible buses equipped with features like wheelchair lifts, widened aisles, and priority seating areas. If you have students or chaperones who require special accommodations—whether it’s mobility devices, service animals, or extra space for medical equipment—just let us know when booking. We’ll make sure an appropriate vehicle is assigned and all federal ADA guidelines are followed. Inclusivity matters to us, and we believe transportation should never be a barrier to learning or fun. By offering accessible options, we help schools fulfill their legal obligations while also doing the right thing for families.
