With hundreds of trips under our belt, we’ve seen it all when it comes to snacks on the bus. We recommend sticking to foods that are easy to pack, don’t require refrigeration, and won’t leave a mess behind. Think handheld, individually wrapped items that can be eaten quickly—no utensils required! Skip anything that needs to stay cold (unless you’re bringing a cooler), and avoid messy sauces or dips.
It’s also smart to consider dietary restrictions when choosing group snacks. If you’re not sure about allergies or preferences, opt for simple foods like pretzels, apples, and granola bars. And always bring extra napkins, hand sanitizer, and trash bags to keep things tidy!
Traveling with kids? You’ll want snacks that are healthy, filling, and easy to eat without making a mess. For school field trips to places like the Victor Valley Museum or Mojave Narrows Regional Park, we suggest packing:
Pair these with juice boxes or refillable water bottles to keep everyone hydrated. Avoid sticky candies or chocolate that can melt, and remind students to toss their wrappers in the trash bag after eating.
If you’re taking your team out for a day of bonding at the Apple Valley Golf Course or a retreat at a local venue, choose snacks that feel a bit more grown-up but are still portable. Some great options include:
Consider adding sparkling water or flavored seltzers to your cooler for a refreshing alternative to soda. These snacks will keep energy levels up during long meetings or activities.
When you’re shuttling young athletes to games or tournaments at Brewster Park or Civic Center Park, you need snacks that will fuel them without weighing them down. Pack a cooler with:
These snacks provide quick carbs and hydration for pre- or post-game munching. Just remember to check for any team allergies before handing out peanut butter or other common allergens.
Heading to a wedding at Sunset Hills Memorial Park or another beautiful Apple Valley venue? Treat your guests to something sweet on the bus ride! Individually wrapped desserts are perfect for sharing and cleanup:
Pair these with champagne splits or sparkling cider for a festive toast en route to the ceremony or reception. Your guests will appreciate the thoughtful touch!
If your church group is taking a day trip to Ashwood Golf Course or another local destination, focus on snacks that are wholesome and nourishing. A few ideas:
These snacks will keep everyone satisfied without spiking blood sugar. Don’t forget to pack plenty of water and encourage everyone to stay hydrated throughout the day.
No road trip is complete without some classic snacks! If your family reunion or gathering is taking you to Horsemen’s Center Park or beyond, stock up on favorites like:
Just remember to balance these indulgent treats with some healthier options, especially if you have a long ride ahead. Mix and match to keep everyone happy!
Once you’ve chosen your snacks, it’s important to pack them properly for the ride. Here are a few tips from our team:
Our buses come equipped with plenty of storage space for coolers and snack bags, so you won’t have to worry about fitting everything in your seat. Just let us know what you’re bringing, and we’ll help you stow it safely for the journey.
Absolutely! We allow snacks and non-alcoholic drinks on all our charter buses and minibuses. If you’d like to bring alcohol onboard for an adult trip, just let us know when you book—we’ll make sure you have a bus that allows it and help you follow any necessary guidelines.
All we ask is that you clean up after yourselves and avoid any snacks that could cause lasting stains or odors (like red wine, greasy pizza, or open containers of soup). Keeping the bus tidy ensures a pleasant ride for everyone and avoids any potential cleaning fees.
