Toyota Arena

If you are looking for high-energy entertainment, the Toyota Arena is the crown jewel of the Inland Empire. Located at 4000 Ontario Center Pkwy, Ontario, CA 91764, this multi-purpose venue hosts everything from the Ontario Reign (AHL hockey) and the Empire Strykers (indoor soccer) to massive concerts featuring top-tier artists. With a capacity of up to 11,000 guests, game days and concert nights can lead to significant traffic congestion around the venue.

Booking a charter bus rental for your sporting event or concert group transforms the experience. Instead of paying premium prices for multiple parking spots and fighting post-event traffic, your group can be dropped off right near the entrance. Your driver will handle the logistics while you pregame on the bus. Our motorcoaches offer ample undercarriage storage for tailgating gear, coolers, and banners. Inside, you can hype up the crowd using the onboard PA system or watch highlight reels on flat-screen TVs. Whether you are a local youth team heading to a match or a corporate group enjoying a luxury suite, Charter Bus Ontario ensures you arrive ready for the action.

Ontario Mills

For shopaholics and fashion enthusiasts, Ontario Mills is a must-visit destination. As California's largest outlet and value retail shopping destination, it boasts over 200 stores, including major brands like Nike, Coach, and Uniqlo, alongside entertainment options like the AMC 30 Theatres and the Improv Comedy Club. Located at 1 Mills Cir, Ontario, CA 91764, the mall draws millions of visitors annually, which means parking can be a competitive sport in itself, especially during holidays and weekends.

Rent a charter bus for your shopping tour and enjoy a VIP experience. Your driver can drop your group off at a designated entrance—perhaps near the food court for a quick bite or close to the theater—so you don't have to walk miles across the asphalt. The best part? You don't have to carry your shopping bags all day. Your bus serves as a secure mobile locker; guests can drop off their purchases in the bus's storage bays and head back inside for round two. This is an ideal solution for tour groups, senior communities, or holiday shopping excursions.

Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park

Located at 800 N Archibald Ave, Ontario, CA 91764, Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park provides a serene escape from the urban hustle. This 150-acre park features two lakes perfect for fishing and pedal boating, a swim complex with water slides, and ample picnic areas. It is a fantastic destination for company picnics, large family reunions, and school end-of-year celebrations.

Transporting food, grills, games, and guests to the park is effortless with Charter Bus Ontario. A full-size charter bus has plenty of room in the luggage bays for coolers, folding chairs, and sports equipment. Everyone arrives at the same time, ensuring your event starts on schedule without waiting for stragglers who got lost on Archibald Avenue. After a long day in the sun, your group can relax in a climate-controlled cabin with reclining seats, enjoying a cool and comfortable ride home.

Scandia Ontario

For youth groups, graduation nights, and birthday parties, Scandia Ontario is a local favorite. Located at 1155 S Wanamaker Ave, Ontario, CA 91761, this Scandinavian-themed amusement park features the "Scandia Screamer" roller coaster, two award-winning miniature golf courses, batting cages, and an arcade. It sits right off the I-15, making it accessible but situated in a high-traffic corridor.

Comfort and accountability are key when traveling with student groups or minors. A private bus rental keeps all students in one secure vehicle, allowing chaperones to keep a headcount easily. Teachers and organizers can use the onboard microphone to announce meeting times and safety rules before arrival. Plus, with onboard entertainment systems like DVD players and WiFi, the kids stay entertained during the drive, making the journey just as fun as the destination.

Graber Olive House

Step back in time at the Graber Olive House, located at 315 E 4th St, Ontario, CA 91764. Since 1894, the Graber family has been producing their famous tree-ripened olives at this historic site. It offers a quieter, more educational experience compared to the bustling arenas and malls. Visitors can tour the processing/grading area, visit the museum, and shop at the gourmet gift shop.

This is an excellent stop for senior tour groups, history buffs, or culinary clubs. A minibus rental is perfect for navigating the quaint streets of downtown Ontario, leading to the Olive House. Your group can enjoy a guided tour and learn about the agricultural history of the Inland Empire without the physical strain of driving. The bus offers a comfortable place to rest between the tour and your next stop, perhaps a lunch at a local winery or restaurant.

Ontario Convention Center

The Ontario Convention Center is the heartbeat of the city's business tourism. Located at 2000 E Convention Center Way, Ontario, CA 91764, this modern venue hosts everything from Comic Con Revolution to major industry trade shows and corporate galas. Its proximity to the airport makes it a prime gathering spot for travelers.

For corporate event planners, transportation is a critical component of a successful conference. Charter Bus Ontario specializes in corporate shuttle services. We can arrange a continuous loop shuttle between the Convention Center and nearby hotels like the DoubleTree or the Azure Hotel & Suites. Impress your attendees and executives with a fleet of modern buses equipped with power outlets and WiFi, allowing them to stay productive and connected on the go. We handle the logistics of arrival and departure schedules so your team can focus on networking and business.

Planes of Fame Air Museum

While technically just across the border in Chino, the Planes of Fame Air Museum is a staple for anyone visiting the Ontario area. Located at 14998 Cal Aero Dr, Chino, CA 91710, the museum is dedicated to preserving aviation history and features a stunning collection of flyable warbirds. It is a premier destination for STEM field trips, veteran groups, and history enthusiasts.

A charter bus rental is the most efficient way to transport a class of students or a group of veterans to the museum. Teachers can utilize the travel time to show educational documentaries on the bus’s TV monitors, prepping students for what they are about to see. For senior groups, our buses offer comfortable boarding and kneeling features, ensuring accessibility for everyone. We can accommodate groups of any size, ensuring your visit to this world-class museum is seamless.

Ontario Museum of History & Art

Located in the historic former City Hall at 225 S Euclid Ave, Ontario, CA 91762, the Ontario Museum of History & Art is a cultural gem. The museum offers exhibitions on regional history and contemporary art, making it a great educational stop. It is situated in a dense part of the city where coordinating multiple vehicles can be difficult.

Book a minibus for your art club or historical society to visit this local treasure. Your driver can drop you off right at the front steps, avoiding the need to find street parking. After exploring the exhibits, your bus will be waiting to whisk you away to lunch in downtown Ontario’s Euclid Avenue district.
