More About School Buses
Petalumacharterbuscompany.com can connect your group in Petaluma with multiple school bus types depending on your headcount, route, and budget. Through the network, you'll find Type A mini and Type B small school buses seating approximately 10 to 24 adults — a smart fit for compact youth groups, church outings, or smaller field trip classes heading to spots like the Petaluma Adobe State Historic Park (3325 Adobe Rd, Petaluma, CA 94954). The park's free parking is in the lower lot near the Adobe Road entrance, past the kiosk, so this stop adds no venue parking charge to your trip.

A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults and handles full classrooms, large youth sports teams, and oversized community groups without breaking a sweat.
