Great Canadian Holidays & Coaches School Groups
For longer trips involving highway driving or multi day school trips, motor coaches are by far a safer method of transportation than traditional school buses.
As quoted by the National Transportation Safety Board, “The dynamic design characteristics of the two types of vehicles are significantly different.
School buses are designed to transport children from school and school related activities, while motor coaches are primarily designed to transport passengers, including students, on longer trips that involved major highways and high speed conditions”.
On board restrooms, more leg room and comfort and large, tinted frost free panoramic windows offer the ultimate in safety and comfort for your school group.
