Sacramento School Field Trips to State Historic Sites and Museums
It's never been easier to plan a Sacramento charter bus rental for school field trips to the region's museums and historic landmarks! The California Museum (1020 O St, Sacramento, CA 95814) is one of the most popular field trip destinations in the state capital. Tour and school buses can use the white bus loading zone on 10th Street next to the Museum, but spaces are first-come, first-served and not guaranteed.
A bus rental lets your class arrive together at the California Museum's bus loading zone, without splitting the group among cars. The State Indian Museum (2618 K St, Sacramento, CA 95816) sits adjacent to Sutter's Fort and makes for an easy paired visit. Limited bus parking for the Sutter's Fort visit is available on K Street near 27th Street and on L Street near 29th Street, so your group can keep its historic-site itinerary together.
For science-focused trips, the Powerhouse Science Center is now the SMUD Museum of Science and Curiosity (MOSAC) (400 Jibboom St, Sacramento, CA 95811), which offers school programs and hands-on exhibits. Buses unload in front of MOSAC, where the passenger loading zone accommodates three buses at a time, but there is no onsite bus parking; free offsite bus parking is first-come, first-served. A MOSAC bus parking map helps groups plan the drop-off and offsite parking, so students can arrive together at one museum entrance. Sacramentocoachbusservice.com makes booking transportation to every one of these destinations fast and simple!
Sacramento Zoo, Nature Reserves, and Outdoor Field Trip Transportation
Sacramentocoachbusservice.com is ready to help you plan outdoor and nature-focused field trip transportation anywhere in the Sacramento Valley! The Sacramento Zoo (3930 W Land Park Dr, Sacramento, CA 95822) is one of the most beloved field trip destinations in Northern California.

Your bus rental brings students to one of those group loading areas instead of leaving them at the zoo entrance. Field trip reservations must be submitted at least two weeks ahead. The American River Parkway and Effie Yeaw Nature Center (2850 San Lorenzo Way, Carmichael, CA 95608) are also excellent outdoor choices, with a gravel bus staging area near the main trailhead.

A charter bus or minibus rental from Sacramentocoachbusservice.com's network brings the class together for the ride.
The Capitol's visitor screening includes metal detectors and bag checks, so allow time for the class to enter together. Sacramentocoachbusservice.com makes government and civic field trips in Sacramento a smooth experience, and the trip starts with one quick quote form or a call to 279-348-7560!
