US Bus Trips — Long-Distance Charter Buses Across the USA
A college tour = 5-10 campuses in a week, parents + prospective students + siblings, luggage for the whole week, and enough patience to survive 3-hour drives between admissions info sessions. A charter coach makes it a shared experience instead of 6 minivans playing GPS-lag tag.

Day 5 Columbia (NYC, 4h). Day 6 Princeton + UPenn (Princeton NJ + Philly, 90 min apart). Day 7 Dartmouth (Hanover NH) or return.
Booking + Info Session Scheduling
Book the coach 4-6 months out. Book info sessions + campus tours 6-8 weeks out via each admissions office's website (they cap group size). Some schools require groups over 10 to book a private tour. Coordinate with admissions if bringing 40+ prospective students (rare — usually a school-district college-tour trip).
Hotel Blocks Along the Route
For efficient tour-loop lodging: Hampton Inn + Holiday Inn Express + Best Western are usually the group-block sweet spot near college towns. Book 3-4 months ahead. Some universities offer visitor-family hotel discounts (Cornell, Dartmouth, UVA) — worth asking. Driver overnight lodging always included in our quote.
