More About School Buses
Heading to a field trip at Audubon Zoo (6500 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA 70118) or loading up after a performance at the Saenger Theatre (1111 Canal St, New Orleans, LA 70112)? The school buses available through this network come in two distinct size categories, and matching the right one to your headcount is exactly where Neworleansminibuscompany.com earns its keep. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — a great fit for smaller groups, youth committees, and tight inner-city routes where a full-size coach would be overkill on narrow Magazine Street or in the French Quarter.
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, handling big class trips, multi-church outings, and festival shuttles where headcount matters. You match the bus to your group — not the other way around!
Because Neworleansminibuscompany.com pulls from a network of independently owned companies rather than one single fleet, you're comparing real availability across multiple transportation providers serving New Orleans, Jefferson Parish, and the Greater Metro area. Enter your trip details once and see what's out there — without waiting for callbacks, hold music, or guessing.

Common Amenities Available on New Orleans School Bus Rentals
School buses in the network aren't the stripped-down yellow buses you remember from childhood. Depending on the vehicle and the operator, options may include air conditioning, padded bench seating, overhead storage, and PA systems — options for your group's ride from Gentilly to the New Orleans City Park (1 Palm Dr, New Orleans, LA 70124) or out to Jazz Fest at the Fair Grounds Race Course (1751 Gentilly Blvd, New Orleans, LA 70119). Smaller Type A and B minibuses can be nimble enough to navigate the tight turns of the Bywater and Tremé, while the larger Type C coaches give big groups the room to spread out on longer hauls toward Baton Rouge or the Northshore.
Amenities do vary by vehicle and operator, so once you submit your trip details, you can browse photos and package details for listed options on the results page — no surprises, no assumptions. Call 504-387-8680 any time and a live agent can explain the listed options for your specific date and group size.

Because we are a referral website and do NOT own or operate buses, exact features vary by vehicle, provider, and availability. After you submit your quote request, you can browse vehicle options, pricing, and available details on the results page.

How much does a School Bus cost in New Orleans?
New Orleans school bus rental prices vary based on vehicle size, the day of the week, and whether you need the bus for a few hours or a full day. Here's what the network generally looks like: weekday hourly rates run $205–$265, weekend hourly rates run $240–$280, and full-day rates come in at $1,670–$2,235. A smaller Type A or B minibus for a half-day field trip to the Cabildo (701 Chartres St, New Orleans, LA 70116) will land at a very different number than a full-size Type C coach running all day for a Mardi Gras parade shuttle along St. Charles Avenue — and the quote tool can account for all of it instantly.
Instead of calling five companies and waiting on callbacks that never come, enter your date, passenger count, and pickup location once and compare pricing from a network of New Orleans-area operators side by side. The whole thing takes under 30 seconds.
