Why Camp Directors Trust San Francisco Coach Bus Service
For more than a decade, San Francisco Coach Bus Service has been the go-to provider for summer camp transportation in the Bay Area. We understand the unique challenges of moving large groups of children and teenagers—from wrangling backpacks at pickup to keeping headcounts accurate on field trips to Golden Gate Park or the California Academy of Sciences. Our reservation specialists are available 24/7/365 to answer questions, update itineraries, and dispatch backup vehicles if plans change. When you book with us, you get a dedicated account manager who will oversee every detail of your contract from start to finish.
We’ve worked with hundreds of camps and youth organizations across California, including the YMCA of San Francisco, Boys & Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley, Jewish Community Centers in Marin and Palo Alto, Girl Scouts of Northern California, and private schools in Hillsborough, Lafayette, and Atherton.

Daily Camp Shuttles Across the Bay Area
If your camp draws kids from multiple cities or neighborhoods, let us set up a daily shuttle system that makes drop-off and pick-up easy for everyone. We can run morning and afternoon routes between your main site and designated stops in San Francisco, Daly City, Millbrae, San Mateo, Redwood City, Fremont, Walnut Creek, or wherever your families live. Buses will arrive on time, follow the same schedule each day, and stay parked on-site until it’s time to head home.
Parents will appreciate not having to carpool across the Bay Bridge or navigate Muni delays, while counselors can focus on supervising campers instead of driving vans through rush hour traffic. For camps based outside the city—like those in Sonoma County or the Peninsula—we can arrange express service to and from BART stations or Caltrain depots for seamless connections.
Field Trip Transportation Made Easy
Summer is all about adventure, and no camp session is complete without a few epic field trips. Whether you’re planning a hike in Muir Woods, a science lesson at the Exploratorium, a Giants game at Oracle Park, or a beach day at Half Moon Bay, we’ll get your group there safely and comfortably. Skip the hassle of coordinating parent drivers or squeezing into yellow school buses with no air conditioning. Our modern fleet includes minibuses (18-35 passengers), midsize coaches (36-47 passengers), and full-size charter buses (48-56 passengers) with reclining seats, seat belts, climate control, PA systems, and plenty of storage for coolers, sports equipment, or musical instruments.
For longer excursions—like overnight camping in Big Sur or rafting on the American River—your bus can stay with the group for the duration of the trip, providing secure storage and shelter in case of bad weather. Need to make multiple stops in one day? No problem. Just send us your itinerary, and we’ll handle the logistics.
Camp Airport Transfers and Travel Days
Hosting out-of-town campers or counselors flying into SFO, OAK, or SJC? San Francisco Coach Bus Service offers reliable airport transfer service to and from all major Bay Area airports. A private bus will meet your group at the arrivals curb, help load luggage, and drive directly to your campsite or lodging without any intermediate stops. This is a great option for sleepaway camps in the Sierra foothills or Central Valley that need to move people long distances on arrival/departure days.
For camps organizing multi-day trips outside the region—such as college tours in Southern California or backpacking in Lake Tahoe—we can provide round-trip transportation with flexible pickup/drop-off times. Buses are available 24 hours a day, so early morning flights or late-night arrivals are never an issue.
Affordable Rates and Flexible Contracts
We know that most summer camps operate on tight budgets, which is why we offer some of the most competitive pricing in the industry. Rates vary depending on vehicle size, mileage, duration, and time of year, but you can expect transparent quotes with no hidden fees. Discounts are available for long-term contracts (4+ weeks), nonprofit organizations, and multi-bus bookings.
If you’re not sure how many buses you’ll need or want to start with a trial period before committing, we’re happy to accommodate. Our goal is to build lasting partnerships with camps that value punctuality, communication, and customer service.
