Why Choose Lafayette Minibus Company for Your Summer Camp Transportation?
Camps choose Lafayette Minibus Company because we make group travel easy, comfortable, and stress-free! When you book with us, you get access to one of the largest fleets in Louisiana—so it’s simple to find exactly the right size vehicle for your needs. We offer everything from 18-passenger minibuses perfect for shuttling counselors between UL Lafayette dorms and Parc Sans Souci, to 56-passenger motorcoaches ideal for moving entire cabins out to Kisatchie National Forest or Fontainebleau State Park. Need something smaller? Try a 25-passenger minibus for quick runs to Moncus Park splash pad or bowling at Acadiana Lanes. Got a big group? A full-size charter bus has room for everyone plus luggage, coolers, and sports gear heading to tournaments at Moore Park or Youngsville Sports Complex.
You’ll love our modern amenities too: stay cool with strong air conditioning (a must during those hot July afternoons), keep kids entertained with free WiFi and DVD players for movie marathons en route to Baton Rouge Zoo or Audubon Aquarium, and use onboard restrooms to minimize stops on long hauls down I-10 or US-90. Parents and directors appreciate how easy it is to organize pickup/dropoff schedules around busy intersections like Johnston Street, Ambassador Caffery Parkway, or Kaliste Saloom Road—and if anything changes last minute, our customer support team is available 24/7/365 to help.
Customizable Schedules That Fit Your Camp’s Needs
Every summer camp has its own unique schedule—and so should your transportation! With Lafayette Minibus Company, you set the itinerary: we’ll pick up and drop off your group exactly when and where you need us. Running a day camp with daily shuttles between multiple sites like Thomas Park Recreation Center, Heymann Park Pool, and South Regional Library? We can provide continuous loops all week long. Hosting an overnight camp that requires a single round trip out to Chicot State Park, Palmetto Island State Park, or a retreat center near Opelousas or Abbeville? We’ll get everyone there safely and efficiently.
Planning special outings during the session—like a swim day at Cypress Lake on the UL campus, a service project at Second Harvest Food Bank, or a field trip to the Children’s Museum of Acadiana? Just let us know your plans, and we’ll build a custom route that covers every stop. Unlike pre-packaged tours or public transit options, our charter buses run on YOUR timetable—not the other way around. That means no missed connections, no waiting around for the next bus, and no splitting up groups because there isn’t enough space. Everyone travels together, every time. And if you need to adjust your schedule mid-session due to weather, staffing, or camper needs, we’re flexible enough to accommodate last-minute changes without hassle.
Amenity-rich Buses Keep Campers Happy
Long rides are easier when you have the right amenities onboard. Our Lafayette charter buses come equipped with features designed to keep kids comfortable and entertained during transit. Stay cool with powerful air conditioning that beats the Louisiana heat—even in July and August. Passengers can watch movies on flat-screen monitors, connect to free WiFi for games or music streaming, and use power outlets to charge phones or tablets.
For longer journeys—such as trips to New Orleans museums, Houston Space Center, or Dallas-Fort Worth attractions—having an onboard restroom is a game-changer. It reduces the need for frequent pit stops and keeps the schedule on track. There’s also plenty of overhead storage for backpacks, lunch coolers, and musical instruments, plus undercarriage bays for larger items like tents, sports equipment, or theater sets. If your campers have specific needs—like extra space for wheelchairs, allergy-friendly seating arrangements, or room for kayaks and fishing poles—we’ll match you with a bus that fits the bill.
Serving All Types of Camps Across Acadiana
No matter what kind of summer program you run, we have the experience and resources to support it. We work with day camps based at community centers like Robicheaux Recreation Center, church groups organizing mission weeks across St. Landry Parish and Iberia Parish, overnight camps heading to rustic cabins in the Atchafalaya Basin, STEM academies visiting university labs at LSU and Tulane, performing arts troupes touring theaters from the Heymann Performing Arts Center to the Saenger Theatre in New Orleans, and sports clinics traveling to tournaments at Pelican Park in Carencro or Teurlings Catholic High School.
We’ve helped scout troops get to jamborees, 4-H clubs compete at state fairs in Gonzales, language immersion students practice French in Arnaudville, and special needs camps access adaptive recreation programs at Parc Independence. Some of the local camps we proudly serve include:
- YMCA of Acadiana Summer Day Camp
- Camp Bon Coeur (heart health camp)
- Acadiana Symphony Orchestra Summer Music Camp
- Lafayette Parks & Recreation Camps (multiple locations)
- Cypress Lake Summer Science Camp (UL Lafayette)
- Ascension Episcopal School Summer Programs
- St. Thomas More Cougar Camp
- Zoo of Acadiana/ZooLive! Summer Camps
- Girl Scouts Louisiana East summer sessions
- Boys & Girls Clubs of Acadiana youth camps
Each type of camp comes with its own set of challenges—from managing large groups of young children to transporting bulky gear like kayaks, band instruments, or baseball bats. Whatever your requirements, we’ll listen carefully and provide a transportation solution that meets them.
Affordable Packages for Every Budget
We understand that most summer camps operate on tight budgets, which is why we offer some of the most competitive rates in the industry. When you request a quote, we’ll ask about your group size, destinations, trip length, and any special requests so we can give you an accurate estimate with no hidden fees. Booking early is the best way to lock in lower prices—especially if your session falls during peak travel times like late June or early August when schools such as Lafayette High School, Comeaux High School, and STM are out of session.
Need multiple buses for a large-scale event at Cajundome or Blackham Coliseum? We offer discounted package deals for multi-vehicle contracts. Only running a short shuttle within city limits—from Northgate Mall to Girard Park, for example? Ask about our hourly rates for local service. Either way, you’ll get outstanding value for your money and the peace of mind that comes from working with a reputable company that’s been serving Lafayette since 2011.
