Most full-sized buses also feature a bathroom at the very back of the motorcoach. Above the seats, overhead bins keep personal belongings secure and out of the way during your ride.

Yes, most modern motorcoach and tour buses feature overhead storage bins, but they are significantly smaller than the overhead compartments found on commercial airplanes. These bins are designed for light items like a small backpack, a jacket, an umbrella, or snacks. They are usually "open-shelf" style or have a small lip to keep items from sliding out, though some luxury coaches have enclosed bins with doors. Because the space is narrow and shallow, items like hard-shell carry-on suitcases will not fit; these must be stored in the large "bay" or "hold" underneath the bus. When packing for a bus tour, it is best to have a small "day bag" that can fit either in the overhead rack or comfortably at your feet, as the driver will typically only open the lower luggage compartments at the beginning and end of the journey.
