Religious Group Bus Rentals in Ames

When you book with Ames Coach Bus Service, you get access to one of the largest fleets of buses available in Story County—including everything from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger charter buses—so it’s easy to find exactly what you need at a price you can afford. Need something big enough for a choir trip or multi-congregation event? We’ll set you up with a full-size motorcoach that seats up to 60 people and has room underneath for luggage, instruments, or sound equipment. Just taking a small group to a Bible study or youth outing? A minibus seats 18–35 passengers comfortably and costs less than renting multiple vans.

We also offer vehicles with upgraded amenities like reclining seats, WiFi, USB outlets, video screens, PA systems, and reclining seats—perfect for keeping everyone comfortable on longer trips across Iowa. And because we operate 24/7, you can always reach someone if you need help making a reservation, changing a pickup time, or adding an extra stop.

If you have members who struggle to get to Sunday services because of limited parking or lack of transportation, we can help! Many churches run midweek programs like youth group, choir practice, or Bible study that require people to come back to the building outside of normal hours. Instead of asking everyone to drive separately, why not run a shuttle from a central location? It’s easier for families with one car, saves money on gas, and gives people a chance to connect before and after the meeting. We can set up a custom schedule that fits your calendar and make sure everyone gets home safely.

For example, if your church is located near Iowa State University, you may have students who live on campus and need a ride to Sunday morning worship. You could run a shuttle that picks up students at the Memorial Union and drops them off at your church before the service starts. Afterward, the shuttle can take them back to campus. This makes it easier for students to participate in your church community without worrying about transportation.

Heading out of town for a weekend retreat or mission trip? Make the journey as comfortable as possible by requesting a bus with premium amenities. Charter buses can be equipped with reclining seats, adjustable footrests, individual reading lights, and climate control to keep everyone comfortable. Onboard restrooms reduce the number of stops you need to make, while overhead storage bins and undercarriage compartments provide plenty of room for luggage, musical instruments, or audiovisual equipment.

Entertainment options include flat-screen monitors with DVD players, PA systems for announcements, and Wi-Fi connectivity so passengers can stay connected on the road. Some buses even offer power outlets and USB ports at each seat, allowing riders to charge their devices during the trip. With these features, even a long drive across the Midwest can be a pleasant experience.
