Student Transportation

Student transportation is the sector in which Elibol Turizm began its journey 25 years ago, and it remains the service we prioritize above all others. We place the utmost importance on transporting our students — the future of our society — safely between home and school. We implement the highest standards of precautions and innovations in the field to provide superior student shuttle services.
All vehicles in our student transportation fleet are equipped with the latest GPS tracking technology. Parents can monitor their child's location at any time, providing complete peace of mind throughout the school day. Our vehicles are regularly disinfected and maintained to the highest hygiene standards.
Our drivers and hostesses assigned to student services are selected through a rigorous training process. Our expert drivers and accompanying hostesses take the safest routes to ensure students travel from home to school and back safely, comfortably, and on time — every single day.

About Istanbul School and Student Transportation

Elibol Turizm has been providing student transportation services in Istanbul for more than 25 years. A school bus is the service on which parents expect the strongest guarantee, because what is at stake is the safety of a child. For this reason we manage every step of our student shuttles with particular care — from vehicle standards to the selection of drivers and hostesses, from route planning to real-time tracking.

How Does Our School Bus Service Work?

Our student transportation service is planned together with the school management and parents:

  • Route planning: Home addresses of students are collected and routes are built to provide the shortest and safest access to school.
  • Hostess assignment: Trained hostesses accompany our shuttles; students are escorted as they board and leave the vehicle.
  • GPS tracking: With the tracking system in our vehicles you can see where your child's shuttle is and receive information at any time.
  • Vehicle standards: Student shuttles use recent-model vehicles that comply with all applicable regulations.
  • Hygiene: Daily cleaning and disinfection of the vehicles is carried out regularly.
  • Timing: The shuttle plan is built around school start and finish times, and any delays are reported immediately.

Why Is Safety Different in Student Transportation?

Student transportation demands a level of responsibility distinct from any other form of transport. The drivers and hostesses working on our shuttles are trained in communicating with children and in behaviour during emergencies. You can review the scope of our training programmes on our Elibol Academy page.

Periodic maintenance of our vehicles is tracked day by day; no vehicle joins a route before its maintenance schedule has been completed. You can see our quality standards and the certificates we hold on our Certificates and Quality Policy pages.

Corporate Solutions for Schools

We have provided student transportation services for hundreds of schools. When working with school managements we handle not only shuttle planning but also parent communication, route revisions and seasonal capacity changes. We can additionally provide personnel transportation for your administrative staff, and you may wish to consider our corporate fleet leasing option for your institution's vehicle needs.
