More About School Buses
Whether you're shuttling a youth sports team from Portsmouth to an away game in Concord, moving a church group to a weekend retreat in the Lakes Region, or organizing a school field trip to the Strawbery Banke Museum (14 Hancock St, Portsmouth, NH 03801) just a few miles from downtown, a school bus keeps every passenger together on one clean itinerary — no carpool coordination, no straggling vehicles, no wondering who got lost on I-95. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10 to 24 adults and are a great fit for smaller groups that need a nimble, easy-to-park option on Portsmouth's tighter downtown streets. When the whole group is coming along, the Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults and gives everyone plenty of room for the ride.
