Why Schools and Educators Choose Lafayette Minibus Company
Schools across Lafayette Parish—including Lafayette High School, Comeaux High, and private academies like Ascension Episcopal—choose Lafayette Minibus Company because we make it easy to move students anywhere they need to go. We’ve worked with K-12 districts, charter schools, Catholic schools, and after-school programs to arrange everything from quick shuttles to Parc International for STEM expos to full-day charters to Baton Rouge museums or overnight trips to New Orleans colleges like Tulane and Loyola.
Our team is available 24/7/365 to answer questions, provide quotes, and handle last-minute changes. We understand the unique needs of educators: staying on schedule, keeping chaperones informed, and making sure every student gets home safely. When you book with us, you get a reliable partner who’s committed to making your trip run smoothly from start to finish.
Comfortable and Modern Buses for Every School Event
Lafayette Minibus Company offers one of the largest fleets in Louisiana, so we can accommodate groups of any size. Smaller groups (15-35 passengers) will love our minibuses, which are perfect for shuttling debate teams to tournaments at LSU-Eunice or bringing elementary classes to the Children’s Museum of Acadiana downtown. These vehicles are easy to maneuver through city streets and can pick up students right at the curb.
For larger groups, our 56-passenger motorcoaches have plenty of room for entire grades, marching bands, or athletic squads traveling to playoff games in Shreveport or Lake Charles. Charter buses come equipped with cushioned seats, climate control, restrooms, luggage bays, and overhead racks—ideal for storing backpacks, coolers, and musical instruments. Onboard WiFi and power outlets let students watch videos, play games, or finish homework during the ride.
Field Trips to Lafayette’s Best Educational Destinations
Lafayette is full of great places for hands-on learning, and we’ve helped schools visit them all. Take your history class to Vermilionville Historic Village to explore Cajun and Creole heritage, or head over to the Hilliard Art Museum at UL Lafayette for a guided tour of contemporary exhibitions. Science teachers can book a day at the Lafayette Science Museum, where students can experience interactive exhibits and planetarium shows.
If you’re planning a longer trip, we’ll get your group to Baton Rouge for tours of the State Capitol and Louisiana Art & Science Museum, or down to New Orleans to visit the Audubon Aquarium, WWII Museum, and French Quarter. No matter the destination, your bus will stay with you throughout the day, providing a secure place to store lunches and personal items.
Athletic and Academic Competition Transportation
Keep your sports teams moving with charter bus rentals tailored to their schedules. We regularly transport football, basketball, soccer, and track teams from Lafayette high schools to away games across the state. Coaches appreciate having a single vehicle large enough to carry all players, trainers, and equipment together. There’s space underneath for coolers, duffel bags, and training gear, while athletes can stretch out and relax after a hard-fought match.
We also support academic groups like robotics clubs, mathletes, and quiz bowl teams heading to regional and state competitions. With everyone traveling together, it’s easier to build camaraderie and ensure prompt arrival before events begin.
Campus Shuttles for Colleges and Universities
Higher education institutions trust Lafayette Minibus Company to move students and staff efficiently between campuses, parking lots, and housing complexes. UL Lafayette departments can arrange charter buses for orientation sessions, graduation ceremonies at Cajundome, or research trips to coastal wetlands. Greek life organizations use our services for formals, retreats, and philanthropy events requiring off-campus travel.
We also work with South Louisiana Community College and Remington College to provide affordable transportation options for student groups attending conferences, job fairs, or service projects. Custom pickup and drop-off locations make it easy to coordinate schedules around class times and extracurricular activities.
