Get Your Class to the Getty Center or Griffith Observatory Without the Parking Headache
You can count on Westcovinacoachbuscompany.com to make the logistics easier when your destination has tricky access rules. At The Getty Center (1200 Getty Center Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90049), school buses use the North Entry Parking structure via Sepulveda Boulevard at Getty Center Drive, and the Getty's own tram carries your group up to the museum from there. At Griffith Observatory (2800 E Observatory Rd, Los Angeles, CA 90027), buses cannot park at the observatory itself; your bus drops off at the designated area near the building, leaves after unloading, and returns for pickup.
One bus keeps your entire class accounted for on both ends — no splitting students across parent cars and hoping everyone finds the right lot.
The Getty gives school groups with approved reservations complimentary bus and vehicle parking, while Griffith Observatory requires buses to leave after drop-off because there is no bus or shuttle parking at the Observatory. Your bus uses the right lane on West Observatory Road for buses, shared rides, taxis, and through traffic, then comes back when your class is ready through the Griffith Observatory groups and tour buses directions.
Skip the I-10 Carpool Scramble on Your Next West Covina Field Trip
Instead of organizing a long line of parent volunteers to carpool 30 students westbound on the I-10 through El Monte and Alhambra, one charter bus or minibus handles the whole class in a single trip. The I-10 corridor between West Covina and downtown Los Angeles is one of the most congested stretches in the country — INRIX data puts LA metro drivers among the worst-affected in the nation, losing more than 87 hours a year to traffic. A bus keeps your group together, keeps your timeline intact, and means no student is late because a parent carpool got stuck at the Puente Hills interchange.

Westcovinacoachbuscompany.com Makes It Easy to Find Field Trip Buses to Pomona, San Dimas, and the San Gabriel Valley
Westcovinacoachbuscompany.com makes finding transportation for shorter San Gabriel Valley field trips just as easy as longer LA runs! Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park (120 E Via Verde, San Dimas, CA 91773) is just eight miles east of West Covina via the I-10 and offers large parking areas that accommodate buses easily — great for nature education days at Puddingstone Lake. Raging Waters (111 Raging Waters Dr, San Dimas, CA 91773), also in San Dimas, is a favorite end-of-year destination with group rates and bus parking in the main lots.
And Mission San Gabriel Arcángel (428 S Mission Dr, San Gabriel, CA 91776) is barely eight miles west — a short, easy run for a history unit. Compare minibuses and charter buses for any of these destinations in seconds through Westcovinacoachbuscompany.com!
A Single Form Connects West Covina Schools to Buses for Science, History, and Nature Trips
A field trip to the La Brea Tar Pits and Museum (5801 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90036) is a natural fit for earth science units — buses drop off on Curson Avenue at Wilshire Boulevard and stage on nearby streets while your class explores the active excavation pits and fossil exhibits. The Autry Museum of the American West (4700 Western Heritage Way, Los Angeles, CA 90027) in Griffith Park pairs well with California history curriculum, with bus parking available in the Griffith Park lots along Crystal Springs Drive. And for environmental science, the Puente Hills Landfill Native Habitat Preserve (15551 Crossroads Pkwy N, City of Industry, CA 91745) is just five miles from most West Covina schools. Westcovinacoachbuscompany.com helps you find the right bus for any of these trips — fill out one form and compare your options!
For the Natural History Museum, your charter bus parks in the Pink Lot or Yellow Lot off Hoover Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard; if those lots fill, buses use Exposition Park Drive, with a published parking cost of $42 per charter or oversized bus. Your bus handles the student drop-off and keeps lunches and backpacks together while your class visits the museum through the Natural History Museum field trip parking and directions information.

Buses drop off at the California Science Center (700 Exposition Park Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90037) along Exposition Park Drive. Group parking is available in the nearby Exposition Park lots. The Science Center requires advance group reservations for school visits, so confirm your reservation and drop-off details with the venue before your trip date.
It's about a 25-mile run west from West Covina via the I-10.
No — buses cannot park at Griffith Observatory itself. Per the Griffith Observatory visitor information page, large vehicles must use the lower Griffith Park lots along Crystal Springs Drive, and passengers take the Griffith Shuttle or walk up to the observatory. Plan your timing around the shuttle when you set your departure from West Covina, and build in extra time for the lower-lot staging.
Book as early as possible — ideally three to four months ahead for May and June field trips, which are the single busiest window for school transportation across Los Angeles County and the San Gabriel Valley. The closer you get to the end of the school year, the fewer vehicles are available at any price point. For fall semester trips in September and October, four to six weeks of lead time is usually workable, but earlier is always better.
Call 626-699-8150 to lock in your date!
It depends on your headcount. A class of 15 to 20 students and chaperones fits comfortably in a 15- to 20-passenger minibus, which is also easier to maneuver at tighter drop-off zones like the La Brea Tar Pits on Curson Avenue. A full grade level of 50 to 56 passengers rides together in a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach with overhead storage for backpacks and undercarriage bays for gear.
Compare both options side by side through Westcovinacoachbuscompany.com — enter your headcount and see what's available for your date!
