Ontario Charter Buses for Science Center and Museum Field Trips
This is one of the most popular reasons Ontario-area schools book field trip transportation every single year, getting students to hands-on science and museum experiences that simply can't happen inside a classroom. The Planes of Fame Air Museum (14998 Cal Aero Drive, Chino, CA 91710) is a short drive from Ontario and a favorite for aviation-themed field trips, with easy bus access and on-site parking for large vehicles. Its school tours limit a single group to 175 students, and the museum offers transportation assistance for school bus costs, so schools can plan group size and trip transportation together.
The San Bernardino County Museum (2024 Orange Tree Lane, Redlands, CA 92374) draws school groups studying natural history and regional science from across the Inland Empire. Parking is free, so your group can arrive together without splitting into separate cars. A charter bus rental in Ontario keeps your group together, your timeline intact, and your chaperones focused on the students, not the directions.

No Matter the Grade Level, Field Trip Buses in Ontario Are Ready
No matter whether you're organizing transportation for kindergarteners visiting a local fire station or high school juniors touring a university campus, the right Ontario field trip bus exists in the network. Younger groups tend to benefit most from 15- to 35-passenger minibuses, with sizes for smaller groups and simpler loading at busy venues. Older students heading to destinations like the Getty Center (1200 Getty Center Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90049) or the California Science Center (700 Exposition Park Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90037) can compare full-size coach buses listing WiFi and power outlets.
For approved Getty K–12 school visits, buses enter North Entry Parking from Sepulveda Boulevard at Getty Center Drive, where Getty Security directs school buses to their parking spots; your group can ride together to the museum instead of coordinating multiple cars. Compare bus types side by side and choose the one that actually fits YOUR group!
Need an Ontario School Bus Rental for a Zoo or Nature Trip?
Need transportation for one of the most universally loved field trip destinations in Southern California? The Los Angeles Zoo (5333 Zoo Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90027) checks in school groups at the school-group entrance in the Children's Discovery Center, then Zoo staff direct students off the bus and to the entrance. At the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens (47900 Portola Ave, Palm Desert, CA 92260), school buses park in a designated area reached from Portola Avenue by taking the second left aisleway and continuing to the north side of the lot.
Your group can gather at the bus-parking island before staff guide everyone to the main entrance. From Ontario, the LA Zoo is roughly 45 miles west via I-10, making it an easy morning departure with plenty of time for a full day of exploration. A school field trip charter bus with undercarriage storage handles backpacks, lunches, and extra gear without a second thought.
Live support is available every day of the year at 840-400-8980 to help you build a custom package for your trip!
Let a Charter Bus Handle Transportation to Ontario-Area Performing Arts and Cultural Events
Let field trip transportation to cultural and performing arts venues be the easiest part of your planning. Ontario and the greater Inland Empire are home to enriching destinations that align with California arts education standards, and getting there in one piece is half the battle. The Milliken Playhouse in Ontario's Cucamonga Heritage Park (7599 Hellman Ave, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730) hosts youth-focused programming throughout the school year.
The Riverside Municipal Auditorium (3485 Mission Inn Ave, Riverside, CA 92501) draws student groups from across the region for orchestra and theatrical performances. For special events in downtown Riverside, the city lists a bus parking rate of $75 per 24 hours, including the encroachment application fee, so groups can account for bus parking in their trip planning. A private group bus rental for your Ontario school group means no scrambling for carpool volunteers, no parking headaches, and no students arriving late to the curtain.

It really is that straightforward, no account, no hassle.
The California Science Center lists group or bus parking as available for field trips, so your group can ride together and park as a group. At the LA Zoo, school groups check in at the Children's Discovery Center entrance and Zoo staff direct the group off the bus and to the entrance. That gives your school a clear bus-arrival process at both destinations.
It depends on your group size and the nature of the trip. Single-classroom groups of 20 to 30 students typically fit well in a 25-passenger minibus. Larger grade-level trips benefit from a full-size 56-passenger charter bus with overhead storage and onboard restrooms.
Comparing options through the Coachbusontario.com network lets you match the right vehicle to your exact headcount and itinerary without overpaying for unused seats.
ADA-accessible charter bus rentals are available through the Coachbusontario.com network for Ontario-area field trips.

Simply mention your accessibility requirements when you request your quote, either through the online form or by calling 840-400-8980, and the support team will help you request a vehicle with the features your group needs.
Booking two to three months in advance is strongly recommended for Ontario field trip transportation, especially for spring semester trips when demand across the Inland Empire peaks.

Waiting until the last minute almost always means higher rates and fewer options, so lock in your date as soon as your itinerary is confirmed.
Absolutely. When you call 840-400-8980, the support team can help coordinate multi-stop pickup routes across Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, Chino, Fontana, or wherever your students are departing from.
