Going on a field trip? Have an activity planned for a group? Let us help! KCSOS’s Transportation Department can book your trip to most destinations, utilizing our drivers’ knowledge of the best routes to get you there safely.
School buses are an economical alternative when luxury isn’t needed. In many cases, school buses make more sense for large groups on short distances. We offer a variety of bus choices to accommodate various group sizes and needs, including our brand-new charter-style school buses.
We can do trips throughout the state, with the majority of our trips within a 2-3 hour radius of Bakersfield. Buses may be booked for many travel occasions including school functions, camp or youth organizations, businesses, government and military organizations and private party events.
Pricing: $46 per hour ($69 per hour for overtime) + $2.50 per mile.
