Ensure Safe and Comfortable Travel on a Tour Bus

Ask about the vehicle in which you will be traveling. Is there enough room to get up and move around? Are the windows big enough to see out? Will you be stuck in a middle seat? Is entering and exiting the vehicle easy?

While a 15-passenger van is lower to the ground than a bus, they don't offer safe and easy entry and exit. They require a stepstool and don't have assist handles. Their side aisle is narrow and not suitable for overweight passengers when moving to the rear of the bus. You might get put in a middle seat, which makes it difficult to see out of their smaller windows or to move around.

Travel in a minibus or larger to ensure that your ride is safe and comfortable.
