You'll love how simple it is to set up recurring campus and student shuttles across the Coachella Valley through our online platform! While La Quinta students commute to nearby College of the Desert or the CSUSB Palm Desert Campus off Cook Street, navigating Highway 111 and I-10 traffic every morning is a major headache. Instead of leaving students to hunt for scarce campus parking, you can arrange private daily, monthly, or semester-long shuttle loops from off-campus apartments near Old Town La Quinta and Adams Street straight to lecture halls. Students can use onboard WiFi and power outlets to finish assignments on the road while a driver handles the commute. Just fill out our online form to compare long-term shuttle packages!
