More About School Buses
Use a school bus rental in Seattle to keep your group traveling together on a shared itinerary, without the chaos of volunteer carpool drivers or overcrowded yellow buses. Through the network, you'll find two primary school bus types built for different group sizes. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults, perfect for smaller classrooms, youth sports teams, or tight-knit church groups heading across the city.
Need to move a bigger crowd? A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44–48 adults, giving you serious capacity for full-grade field trips to destinations like the Woodland Park Zoo (5500 Phinney Ave N, Seattle, WA 98103) or the Pacific Science Center (200 Sue Bird Court North, Seattle, WA 98109). Bus/RV parking at Woodland Park Zoo is in the Lion Lot only, and the South Entrance is accessed through that lot.
Your group can ride together and enter the zoo from the same side of the grounds. The Burke Museum's bus drop-off is on the south side of the N1 lot in front of the main entrance, and limited bus parking must be reserved in advance. Your school group can unload together there, then head inside while the bus uses its reserved parking space.
