Charter Bus Rentals for School Field Trips in Mankato, Minnesota

Year-round Service for Every Type of Field Trip

No matter what kind of event you’re planning, Charter Bus Company Mankato has the right bus for the job. Popular destinations for field trips include the Children’s Museum of Southern Minnesota, Minnesota State University Mankato, Sibley Park Zoo, Minneopa State Park, and the Carnegie Art Center. We also provide transportation to science fairs, band competitions, athletic tournaments, college visits, and overnight excursions anywhere in Minnesota or out of state. If you’re organizing a multi-day trip to the Twin Cities, Duluth, Rochester, or even Chicago, we’ll build a custom itinerary that fits your schedule and budget. And because we operate year-round, you can count on us for winter ski trips, spring museum tours, summer camp shuttles, and fall harvest festivals.

Custom Itineraries Built Around Your Schedule

Unlike traditional school buses that run on fixed routes, our charter buses operate on your timetable. Pick-up and drop-off times are entirely up to you, whether it’s an early morning departure or a late-night return. Want to make multiple stops throughout the day? No problem—we’ll follow your exact itinerary and wait as long as needed at each location. This level of flexibility is especially useful for trips that span several hours or require coordinating with other modes of transportation like trains or ferries. Rest assured that your driver will arrive on time and get everyone home comfortably at the end of the day.

Affordable Rates With No Additional Fees

We understand that schools and nonprofit organizations often operate on tight budgets, which is why we strive to offer some of the most competitive rates in the industry. When you request a quote from Charter Bus Company Mankato, you’ll receive a clear breakdown of all costs associated with your rental—including mileage, tolls, parking, and driver accommodations if applicable. There are no additional fees or surprise charges; what you see is what you pay. Splitting the cost among participants can make chartering a bus surprisingly affordable compared to other options like carpooling or hiring multiple vans.
