A Group Travel Guide to Ontario, California's Best Destinations

Located in the heart of Southern California's Inland Empire, Ontario is a bustling hub of commerce, entertainment, and history. While many know it for the Ontario International Airport (ONT), the city offers so much more for groups looking to explore. Whether you are organizing a corporate team-building event, a school field trip, a family reunion, or a wedding celebration, navigating the I-10 and I-15 freeways with a caravan of cars can be a logistical nightmare. That is where Charter Bus Ontario comes in.

We provide the most reliable, comfortable, and efficient charter bus rentals in Ontario and the surrounding San Bernardino County. From compact minibuses for quick shuttles to Ontario Mills to full-size charter buses for large events at the Toyota Arena, we handle the driving so you can focus on the experience. Forget about splitting gas money, finding parking in crowded lots, or worrying about designated drivers. With a private bus rental, your group travels together, arrives together, and enjoys premium amenities like reclining seats, climate control, and onboard WiFi. Let us be your guide to the best destinations Ontario has to offer!

Toyota Arena

If you are looking for premier entertainment in the Inland Empire, the Toyota Arena is the place to be. This multipurpose arena is the home of the Ontario Reign (AHL hockey) and the Empire Strykers (MASL soccer), making it a top destination for sports fans. Beyond sports, the venue hosts major concerts, family shows like Disney on Ice, and large-scale conventions. Getting a large group into a busy arena can be stressful, especially when dealing with general parking fees and long walks to the entrance. When you book a charter bus rental with Charter Bus Ontario, we streamline your game day experience. Your driver can drop your group off near the entrance, allowing you to skip the parking hassle entirely.

For corporate groups or large families attending an event, a private bus allows you to pre-game in comfort. You can store banners, jerseys, and tailgating gear in the undercarriage storage bays of a full-size coach, keeping the aisles clear for your passengers. After the final buzzer or the last encore, you won't have to fight the gridlock exiting the parking lot alone; you can relax in a climate-controlled cabin while your driver navigates the traffic on Ontario Center Parkway. Whether you are cheering on the Reign or singing along to your favorite band, we ensure your transportation is as exciting as the event itself.

Ontario Mills

For shopaholics and bargain hunters, Ontario Mills is not just a mall—it is a destination. As California's largest outlet and value retail shopping destination, it boasts over 200 stores, including heavy hitters like Nike Factory Store, Saks OFF 5TH, and Uniqlo. Groups flock here from all over Southern California to take advantage of the deals, catch a movie at the AMC 30 Theatres, or grab a laugh at the Improv Comedy Club. However, anyone who has visited "The Mills" on a weekend knows that finding parking can take longer than the drive itself. A charter bus rental is the ultimate hack for a stress-free shopping spree.

When you rent a bus for a shopping trip, you get the VIP treatment. Your driver can drop your group off at a designated entrance so you can get straight to the sales. But the biggest benefit of a charter bus for a shopping trip is the storage space. A standard 56-passenger motorcoach comes equipped with massive undercarriage luggage bays. This means your group can shop 'til they drop without worrying about carrying heavy bags all day or stuffing purchases into the trunk of a small sedan. You can periodically return to the bus to drop off your haul and head back in for round two! Whether you are organizing a senior citizen outing or a holiday shopping trip for a social club, Charter Bus Ontario makes the logistics effortless.

Scandia Amusement Park

For youth groups, school field trips, and birthday parties, Scandia Amusement Park offers a classic fun park experience right here in Ontario. Famous for its "Scandia Screamer" roller coaster and the towering cliff drop ride, the park also features two award-winning miniature golf courses, batting cages, and a massive arcade. It is the perfect spot for a day of high-energy fun. However, coordinating a large group of excited kids and teenagers requires safe and reliable transportation. Instead of relying on a convoy of parents' cars or outdated school buses, upgrade your trip with a modern charter bus rental.

Comfort is our top priority at Charter Bus Ontario. Our buses are modern and clean, and the drivers are friendly. On the way to Scandia, you can use the onboard PA system to make announcements, conduct headcounts, or hype up the kids for the day ahead. If you are planning an end-of-year school celebration or a summer camp outing, a charter bus ensures everyone stays together. Plus, after a long day of adrenaline and arcade games, the ride home is a breeze. The reclining seats and air conditioning provide a comfortable environment for exhausted students (and chaperones!) to rest and recharge on the way back to school or home.

Graber Olive House

Step back in time and experience a piece of Ontario's agricultural history at the Graber Olive House. Operating since 1894, this historic landmark is the oldest operating olive packing house in the United States. It offers a quieter, more educational pace compared to the bustling malls and arenas, making it a fantastic destination for senior tour groups, history buffs, and culinary enthusiasts. Visitors can tour the facility, see how the famous Graber olives are graded and packed, and visit the charming gift shop. Because this is a historic site located in a residential-adjacent area, parking for multiple vehicles can be tricky. A minibus rental is the perfect solution for navigating the local streets with ease.

Booking a shuttle with Charter Bus Ontario allows your group to enjoy the rustic charm of the Olive House without the modern headache of navigation. Your group can enjoy a guided tour and stock up on gourmet olives, olive oils, and other treats. Since our buses have ample overhead storage, your guests can safely stow their glass jars and gift baskets for the ride home. This destination pairs perfectly with a broader culinary tour of the Inland Empire. You can build a custom itinerary that starts at Graber Olive House and continues to local wineries in the nearby Cucamonga Valley, all with a designated driver behind the wheel.

Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park

When you need a breath of fresh air and wide-open spaces for a company picnic, family reunion, or church retreat, Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park is Ontario's premier outdoor venue. This 150-acre park features two lakes for fishing, a swim complex with water slides, ample picnic shelters, and plenty of green space for games and activities. Transporting food, coolers, sports equipment, and guests to a park can be a logistical challenge, but a charter bus rental simplifies everything. We can transport your entire group from a central meeting point directly to your reserved picnic shelter.

With a full-size charter bus, you have plenty of room in the undercarriage bays for bulky items like folding chairs, large coolers, volleyball nets, and barbecue supplies. This means you don't have to ask attendees to load up their personal vehicles with heavy gear. Once at the park, your group can enjoy a day of swimming, fishing for trout or catfish, and bonding outdoors. If the weather gets too hot, the bus offers a climate-controlled sanctuary for anyone needing a break from the sun. Whether you are planning a small gathering or a massive corporate field day, Charter Bus Ontario helps you get the gear and the people there efficiently.

Ontario Museum of History & Art

For an educational outing that dives deep into the region's cultural heritage, the Ontario Museum of History & Art is a hidden gem. Located in the historic former City Hall building, the museum features exhibitions on local history, contemporary art, and the Gem of the Foothills' agricultural past. It is an ideal destination for school field trips, academic clubs, and senior community outings. When you book a charter bus for a museum trip, you elevate the educational experience. You can use the onboard DVD players and TV screens to show a documentary related to the exhibits while en route, turning travel time into learning time.

The museum hosts various events and workshops throughout the year, and a charter bus ensures your group arrives promptly for your scheduled tour or program. Traffic along Euclid Avenue can be busy, but the drivers know the best routes to ensure a smooth drop-off right at the front steps. Teachers and organizers appreciate the ease of keeping the group contained and accounted for, rather than worrying about students getting lost in a caravan of cars. Charter Bus Ontario is proud to support lifelong learning by providing safe, affordable transportation to cultural institutions across the Inland Empire.

K1 Speed Ontario

If your corporate team or bachelor party has a need for speed, K1 Speed in Ontario offers a premier indoor go-kart racing experience. This isn't your average amusement park track; these are high-performance electric karts capable of reaching speeds up to 45 mph on a professionally designed track. It is a fantastic venue for team building, adrenaline-pumping fun, and friendly competition. However, after an intense few hours of racing, the last thing anyone wants to do is drive home in traffic on the I-15. That is why a party bus or minibus rental is the perfect companion for a K1 Speed outing.

By renting a bus, you keep the team energy high from the moment you leave the office until you return. You can use the ride over to talk strategy or simply blast music and get hyped for the race. After the checkered flag waves and the podium ceremony concludes, your group can pile back into the bus, relax in plush seats, and head to a nearby restaurant or brewery to continue the celebration. With a driver handling the roads, everyone can participate in the fun without worrying about navigation or sobriety. Let Charter Bus Ontario handle the transportation logistics while you handle the hairpin turns.

Planes of Fame Air Museum

Located just a short drive from Ontario in neighboring Chino, the Planes of Fame Air Museum is a world-class destination for aviation enthusiasts, veterans, and educational groups. The museum houses over 150 aircraft, many of which are flyable, spanning the history of aviation from the earliest days of flight to the jet age. It is an awe-inspiring destination that requires reliable transportation, especially if you are traveling with a large group of students or seniors. A charter bus rental provides the accessibility and comfort necessary for a day trip to the airfield.

For senior groups, the ease of boarding a modern charter bus—which can be equipped with kneeling features or ADA-compliant lifts upon request—makes the trip accessible for everyone. For school groups, the journey to the museum is the perfect time to review aviation history facts using the onboard PA system. Once there, you can explore the hangars and see warbirds like the P-51 Mustang and the F4U Corsair up close. When the tour is over, your bus will be waiting to whisk you back to Ontario in air-conditioned comfort. Charter Bus Ontario makes visiting regional attractions like Planes of Fame simple and stress-free.
