The 56-passenger charter bus in Palm Springs

Coaches carry festival groups, convention attendees, golf groups with clubs and school trips across the valley, and they make the long drives to Los Angeles, San Diego and Temecula comfortable.

The class runs about 45 feet with 49 to 56 reclining seats, a restroom, climate control, a PA system, outlets and WiFi on most units. Lift-equipped coaches are available on request.

Coaches handle resorts, arenas and the festival bus areas well, but many Palm Springs estates and hillside streets are too tight. SR-74 over the mountains is slow for large vehicles, and winds in the San Gorgonio Pass can affect high-profile vehicles.

Coaches quote against a five hour minimum. Build the itinerary, see one all-in price, e-sign and track the coach live.
