Auto Club Speedway

For many visitors, Fontana is synonymous with speed. The Auto Club Speedway is the premier destination for motorsports in Southern California, hosting major NASCAR events, drag racing, and driving schools throughout the year. If you are organizing a group of racing enthusiasts, tailgaters, or corporate clients looking for a thrill, renting a charter bus to the Speedway is the smartest logistical move you can make. Traffic on Cherry Avenue and the surrounding I-10 off-ramps can be incredibly congested during race weekends. By consolidating your group into a single motorcoach, you eliminate the stress of coordinating a convoy and paying for multiple parking passes. Your driver can drop your group off near the entrance or park in the designated oversized vehicle lots, allowing you to head straight to the grandstands or the infield.

Beyond just watching the races, the Speedway offers experiences like Rusty Wallace Racing Experience or Exotics Racing, which are fantastic for corporate team-building events. A charter bus rental provides ample undercarriage storage for coolers, folding chairs, and tailgating gear, ensuring you have everything you need for a full day at the track. Inside the bus, your group can hype themselves up by watching race highlights on the flat-screen TVs or simply enjoying the climate-controlled cabin away from the Inland Empire heat. Whether you are bringing a group of 50 fans or a small VIP team, Charter Bus Fontana ensures you arrive at the checkered flag on time.

Center Stage Theater

For a touch of culture and elegance in the heart of the city, the Center Stage Theater is a must-visit destination for groups who love live entertainment. This award-winning venue offers a unique dinner theater experience, featuring Broadway-style musicals, tribute concerts, and mystery dinner shows. It is a fantastic option for senior citizen outings, holiday company parties, or large family gatherings looking for a sophisticated night out. Parking in downtown Fontana can sometimes be tricky during peak showtimes, but a charter bus rental simplifies the process entirely. Your driver can drop your party right at the front entrance on Sierra Avenue, allowing guests—especially those in formal wear or with mobility concerns—to enter the venue without a long walk.

The theater is also a popular venue for weddings and private banquets. If you are planning a wedding at Center Stage, Charter Bus Fontana can provide seamless shuttle services between the venue and local hotels for your out-of-town guests. Instead of worrying about guests navigating unfamiliar streets at night, you can rest assured they are traveling safely in a modern shuttle bus. With plush reclining seats and a smooth ride, the journey back to the hotel becomes a relaxing end to a wonderful evening of entertainment. Let us handle the driving so you can focus on the show!

Fontana Park & Aquatic Center

When the Southern California sun is beating down, there is no better place for a large group to cool off than the Fontana Park & Aquatic Center. This massive recreational hub is perfect for summer camp field trips, youth group outings, and end-of-year school celebrations. The Aquatic Center features a large pool with waterslides, a lazy river, and a splash pad, making it a hit with kids and teenagers alike. Coordinating transportation for dozens of excited children can be a headache for organizers, but a charter bus rental keeps everyone contained, safe, and accounted for. Our buses come equipped with overhead storage bins perfect for keeping dry clothes and backpacks organized, while the undercarriage bays can easily hold coolers full of lunch, sunscreen, and pool noodles.

In addition to the water features, the surrounding Fontana Park offers a skate park, sports pavilion, and plenty of green space for picnics. If you are planning an all-day event, having a charter bus on standby provides a cool, air-conditioned home base where chaperones can rotate out for a break or where the group can securely store their belongings. Drivers for Charter Bus Fontana are experienced in navigating the parking lots off Summit Avenue, ensuring comfortable loading and unloading zones away from general traffic. Make your next summer outing a splash with reliable group transportation.

Sierra Lakes Golf Club

Located at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains, Sierra Lakes Golf Club offers scenic views and a challenging course design that attracts corporate tournaments, charity fundraisers, and wedding parties. If you are organizing a golf outing for your business colleagues or a groom's day out, a minibus rental is the ultimate upgrade to your experience. Golf bags are bulky and difficult to fit into standard sedans or rideshares, but a charter bus offers spacious luggage bays designed to handle oversized equipment with ease. Your group can travel together, discuss strategy, or enjoy a pre-round snack in the comfort of a private vehicle.

Sierra Lakes is also a premier wedding venue in the Inland Empire. Charter Bus Fontana specializes in wedding shuttle services that connect this beautiful venue with hotels in Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga, and Ontario. We can set up a continuous loop shuttle to ensure your guests arrive at the ceremony on time and get back to their accommodations safely after the reception. With amenities like leather seats and auxiliary ports for music, the bus ride becomes an extension of the celebration. Leave the designated driving to us so you can enjoy the hospitality at the Sierra Lakes clubhouse.

Mary Vagle Nature Center

For educators and nature lovers, the Mary Vagle Nature Center is a hidden gem located at the foot of the Jurupa Hills. It is an ideal destination for STEM field trips, scout troops, and environmental clubs looking to learn about the local ecosystem. The center features nature trails, a native plant garden, and a pond that attracts a variety of local wildlife. Transporting a classroom of students to a nature center requires safety and reliability, which is exactly what Charter Bus Fontana provides. Our modern buses give teachers and parents peace of mind.

The nature center is located in a somewhat residential area on Cypress Avenue, so having a driver who knows the lay of the land is a significant advantage. While the students explore the geology and biology of the Inland Empire, the bus waits nearby, ready to transport everyone back to school. On the return trip, teachers can utilize the onboard PA system to recap the day's lessons or put on an educational DVD to keep the students engaged during the drive. It is the perfect way to turn a standard field trip into a seamless educational experience.

Martin Tudor Jurupa Hills Regional Park

If your group is looking for outdoor recreation with a view, Martin Tudor Jurupa Hills Regional Park is the place to go. This expansive park offers hiking trails that lead up into the hills, providing panoramic views of the entire valley. It is a favorite spot for family reunions, company picnics, and community festivals. Because the park is a popular gathering spot on weekends, parking can become scarce for individual vehicles. Renting a charter bus allows your entire group to be dropped off right at the picnic shelters or trailheads, eliminating the frustration of circling for parking spots.

For groups planning a hike, a charter bus serves as a great mobile support unit. You can store extra water, first aid kits, and hiking gear in the bus, accessing them only when needed. After a long day of hiking the Jurupa Hills, nothing beats climbing into a cool, air-conditioned bus with plush reclining seats. Your driver will handle the traffic on Sierra Avenue while your group rests and recovers. Whether it’s a competitive team-building hike or a leisurely family barbecue, Charter Bus Fontana makes the logistics effortless.

Jurupa Mountains Discovery Center

Just a stone's throw from the Fontana border, the Jurupa Mountains Discovery Center is a top-tier destination for educational groups. Famous for its earth science museum and botanical gardens filled with dinosaur sculptures, it is a place that sparks the imagination. We frequently transport school groups, summer camps, and geology clubs to this location. The site includes nine acres of botanical gardens and various specimens of fossils and minerals. A charter bus rental is essential for keeping classes organized, especially when transporting younger students who need close supervision.

When you book a bus for a trip to the Discovery Center, you ensure that the entire schedule runs like clockwork. We can arrange for a morning pickup at your school, a drop-off at the center's entrance on Granite Hill Drive, and a prompt departure to get students back before the final bell. With onboard entertainment systems, the ride to the center can be used to show documentaries about dinosaurs or geology, prepping the students for what they are about to see. It transforms travel time into instructional time, adding value to your field trip budget.
