Charter Buses to the Aquarium of the Pacific — Long Beach's Most Popular Field Trip Destination
Find the perfect bus for a field trip to the Aquarium of the Pacific (100 Aquarium Way, Long Beach, CA 90802) — one of the largest aquariums in the United States, home to over 11,000 animals representing more than 500 species. Charter buses drop off directly on Aquarium Way at the main entrance, then relocate to the Long Beach Convention Center parking structure (300 E Ocean Blvd) while your students explore. Groups of 10 or more qualify for educational group pricing, so matching your bus to your exact headcount matters.
A 56-passenger charter bus keeps your whole class together from school pickup through drop-off, with overhead storage for backpacks and lunches and climate control for the ride home. Compare available buses and pricing in under a minute — just enter your trip details and go!
The Aquarium's current prepaid group program accepts groups of 10 to 100 people, runs Monday through Friday with arrival times from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and requires prepayment at least 24 hours in advance, so your bus timing can be built around a real arrival window instead of a guess. The Aquarium of the Pacific prepaid group visit details also call for one chaperone per 10 children.

It's never been easier to arrange field trip transportation to Long Beach's iconic waterfront!

From there, the entire waterfront is walkable — Shoreline Village, the Aquarium of the Pacific, and the Long Beach Performing Arts Center are all nearby.

A 15- to 35-passenger minibus is a great fit for a single classroom group heading out for a docent-led nature walk, while a larger charter bus handles multiple classes in one trip.

Charter buses drop off students directly on Aquarium Way at the main entrance to the Aquarium of the Pacific. Because on-site bus parking isn't available at the Aquarium itself, buses typically relocate to the Long Beach Convention Center parking structure (300 E Ocean Blvd) while your group is inside. Confirm current drop-off and staging details with the Aquarium's group sales office at (562) 590-3100 before your visit.
Rancho Los Cerritos Historic Site offers free admission for LBUSD students, making it one of the most accessible field trip destinations in the district. Several other local and regional venues also offer discounted or free admission for school groups — always confirm with the destination directly when planning your trip. Transportation is a separate cost arranged through Longbeachcharterbusservices.com.
Book at least four to six weeks in advance for most field trips — and six months or more for spring dates. March through May is the busiest field trip season for Long Beach schools, and May through June adds graduation and prom demand across LBUSD and CSULB. Waiting until the last minute means fewer vehicles and higher prices.
The earlier you compare through Longbeachcharterbusservices.com, the better your options and the better your rate.
It depends on your group size. A 15- to 35-passenger minibus is ideal for a single classroom heading to a local destination like El Dorado Nature Center or the Museum of Latin American Art. A 56-passenger charter bus works best for larger groups or longer day trips to Disneyland or San Diego.
