Amenities Commonly Found on 56 Passenger Charter Bus Rentals
Cambridgecharterbuscompany.com is ready to help you find a 56-passenger charter bus loaded with every amenity your group actually wants — and the network has plenty to choose from! Every full-size motorcoach comes standard with air conditioning and climate control, because a Cambridge February and a Cambridge August are two completely different problems and both need to be solved before anyone boards. Seats are high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with extra legroom so your group arrives at Fenway Park or TD Garden without the stiff-legged shuffle that comes from a cramped ride.
Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags, and undercarriage luggage bays fit full-size suitcases, instrument cases, and equipment — one bag per person below, one above, and nobody's bag is riding on a lap. You'll also find power outlets and USB charging ports, flat-screen monitors with DVD or HDMI input, a PA system with wireless microphone for tour guides and group leaders, and Bluetooth and AUX stereo so you can run your own playlist from Cambridge to the Cape and back. WiFi is available on many models — ideal for the MIT research team that needs to stay connected on the ride to Logan.
An onboard restroom means no unplanned stops between Cambridge and Gillette Stadium on a cold October Sunday. ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts and wider aisles are available on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote! Amenities do vary by bus and by operator, so the more detail you share when you request your quote, the better your match will be.
