When you book with Carmel Coach Bus Service, you’re getting more than just a bus—you’re getting a dedicated partner who understands the unique needs of summer camps. We know how important it is to keep campers safe, comfortable, and entertained during long rides, which is why we offer a wide range of amenities and customization options.

And with our flexible scheduling and 24/7 customer support, you can rest assured that your transportation will run smoothly from start to finish.

Field Trip Transportation to Indianapolis Museums and Zoos
Take your campers on an educational adventure to some of Indianapolis’s top attractions! We regularly provide charter bus rentals for field trips to the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, the Indianapolis Zoo, the Indiana State Museum, and the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art. Your campers will love riding in a climate-controlled bus with reclining seats, TV monitors, and DVD players for watching movies or educational videos en route. Pack lunches and coolers can be stored in the undercarriage luggage bays, keeping the aisles clear and the cabin comfortable.
For smaller groups or day camps based in Carmel, consider a minibus rental for quick trips to Conner Prairie in Fishers, Holliday Park, or the Monon Community Center’s Waterpark. These compact buses are perfect for navigating city streets and offer many of the same amenities as larger coaches.

Daily Shuttle Services for Commuter Camps
If your camp operates on a commuter model, with campers being dropped off and picked up each day, a private shuttle service can simplify logistics and reduce traffic congestion at your site. We can arrange for one or more buses to run continuous loops between your camp and designated pickup points in Carmel, Westfield, Zionsville, or northern Indianapolis. Parents will appreciate the convenience of a central drop-off location, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing that all campers are accounted for and arriving together.
Shuttle schedules can be tailored to your camp’s hours and session times, with options for early drop-offs or late pickups as needed. Onboard amenities like air conditioning and cushioned seats will keep kids comfortable during the ride, even on the hottest July afternoons. And with a dedicated driver handling the commute, your staff can focus on supervising campers instead of coordinating carpools.

Camp Airport Transfers Made Simple
Hosting out-of-town campers or counselors? Arrange for a charter bus to pick them up directly from Indianapolis International Airport (IND) and bring them to your campsite or lodging facility. Unlike public transportation or rideshare apps, a private bus ensures that everyone stays together and arrives on time—no missed connections or language barriers to worry about. Plus, there’s plenty of room for luggage, sleeping bags, and sports equipment.
For camps located outside the immediate Carmel area, such as those in Brown County, Bloomington, or Lafayette, an airport transfer bus is the most efficient way to move large groups over long distances. Sit back, relax, and let your driver handle the highways while you welcome new arrivals and go over the week’s itinerary.

Custom Itineraries for Multi-day Excursions
Planning an overnight camping trip to Turkey Run State Park, Indiana Dunes, or Lake Monroe? We’ve got you covered. Unlike school buses or public transit options, a private charter bus stays with your group for the entire duration of your trip, providing transportation to trailheads, beaches, and other points of interest as needed. Store tents and coolers in the luggage bays, use the onboard restroom during long stretches between rest areas, and enjoy the flexibility of setting your own schedule.
For camps that participate in regional competitions or joint activities with other organizations, having a dedicated bus makes coordination much easier. Arrive together, depart together, and build camaraderie along the way.

Comfortable, Modern Buses for Every Budget
No two camps are exactly alike, which is why we offer such a wide variety of vehicles to choose from. Need a full-size charter bus with 56 seats for an overnight trip to Brown County State Park? We’ve got you covered. Looking for a smaller minibus to shuttle day campers between the Monon Community Center and Central Park? We can do that too. Our fleet includes options from top manufacturers like MCI, Van Hool, Setra, and Grech Motors, so you’re sure to get you a bus that fits your headcount and your budget.
All of our buses come equipped with comfortable, reclining seats and powerful air conditioning—essential for staying cool during those hot Indiana summers. If you want to upgrade your ride, you can add features like free WiFi, USB charging ports, overhead TV screens, and even PA systems for making announcements or leading singalongs. Just let us know what your campers will enjoy most, and we’ll make it happen.
