More About School Buses
Busrentalsantafe.com connects you to a large network of independently owned transportation companies so you can compare more options and more packages than any one company offers.

The Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44–48 adults — perfect for full classrooms, large youth groups, and faith organizations heading to destinations like Meow Wolf (1352 Rufina Cir, Santa Fe, NM 87507) or Bandelier National Monument (15 Entrance Rd, Los Alamos, NM 87544).
The Type A mini and Type B small school bus seats approximately 10–24 adults, making them a great fit for smaller groups, specialty programs, and trips where a full-size bus would be more than you need. You choose the size that works for your headcount!
