Charter Buses to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library for Simi Valley School Groups
For a civics, history, or government field trip that genuinely stops students in their tracks, nothing in Ventura County comes close to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum (40 Presidential Drive, Simi Valley, CA 93065). The library's Education Department offers curriculum-aligned programs for grades K–12, and the Air Force One Discovery Center — with the actual SAM 27000 aircraft on display — is one of the most memorable stops any school group makes all year. Buses enter from Presidential Drive and use the library's limited bus parking, so your group unloads steps from the entrance.
Educational program slots fill months in advance, so the earlier you lock in your transportation, the better. Call 805-327-0530 to compare available buses for your Reagan Library date!
Set the bus route to Presidential Drive from Madera Road: the library's entrance is accessible only from Madera Road, and Tierra Rejada does not lead to the library. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library plan-your-visit page carries the current approach and parking details.
Los Angeles Science and Art Field Trips Made Easy From Simi Valley
You don't have to stress about the run down SR-118 into Los Angeles when a charter bus is handling it for your class. The California Science Center (700 Exposition Park Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90037) and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (900 Exposition Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90007) sit side by side in Exposition Park, while buses for the Natural History Museum use the Green Lot off Hoover Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard — charter-bus parking is $42 per vehicle. Art history classes love the Getty Center (1200 Getty Center Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90049), where K–12 admission is free and buses use North Entry Parking via Sepulveda Boulevard at Getty Center Drive while students ride the Getty tram up to the museum level.
One bus, one pickup, and the SR-118 traffic is completely off your plate. Compare buses for your LA field trip right here!
Science Center school groups can arrange group or bus parking through (213) 744-2019; the California Science Center field-trip page has the reservation details. With an approved Getty School Group Reservations booking, your bus parking is free, and Getty staff direct the coach to its school-bus spaces in North Entry Parking; see the Getty Center school field-trip FAQs.
Whether You're Heading to the LA Zoo or Griffith Observatory, Your Bus Is in the Network
Whether your science curriculum calls for a morning at the Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens (5333 Zoo Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90027) — where buses use the designated bus and RV area in the main lot off Zoo Drive — or an astronomy field trip to Griffith Observatory (2800 E Observatory Road, Los Angeles, CA 90027), where buses drop students on Vermont Canyon Road and stage below while the class explores, Simivalleycharterbusservices.com helps you find the right vehicle for the trip. The network includes bus sizes for every headcount, from a single classroom traveling in a minibus to a full grade level filling a motorcoach. You set the destination, enter your group size and date, and compare your options in seconds.
No waiting for callbacks to get pricing, no waiting — just easy field trip transportation from Simi Valley to anywhere in the LA area!
For a school field trip at the Los Angeles Zoo field-trip guide, arrive 20 minutes before your scheduled entrance; your bus stays loaded until Zoo Guest Services meets the class and directs everyone to the Children's Discovery Center school-group entrance.
You're Never Limited to One Bus Company When You Use Simivalleycharterbusservices.com
You're never limited to whatever one local company happens to have available on your date. Because Simivalleycharterbusservices.com is a quote-comparison website connected to a large network of independently owned transportation companies, you can compare multiple bus types, multiple amenities, and multiple price points from a single form — all for the same Simi Valley field trip. Need a bus with overhead storage for backpacks and lunches?
A vehicle with enough undercarriage space for science equipment? An ADA-accessible model for a student who needs it? Just mention it when you submit your details and the network returns options that actually fit.
From the America's Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College to the Channel Islands National Park Visitor Center in Ventura, the right bus is available. Compare and book online, or call 805-327-0530 today!
Waiting Until the Last Minute Costs Simi Valley Schools More Money and More Stress
Waiting on field trip transportation is one of the fastest ways to pay more and end up with fewer options. Spring semester — February through May — is the busiest stretch of the year for school group transportation across the Simi Valley and greater Los Angeles area, and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library's educational program slots fill up months in advance on their own. Add SVUSD's prom season in April and May pulling from the same regional bus network, and the buses that were available in January are gone by March.
Book your field trip transportation three to six months out whenever possible. The earlier you compare through Simivalleycharterbusservices.com, the more vehicles you'll have to choose from and the better the pricing. Call 805-327-0530 right now to lock in your date — or use the 30-second online quote tool and see your options instantly!

A school in the Wood Ranch area needs the same easy comparison tool as one near the Simi Valley Town Center — and this site delivers it for both.

Just enter your trip details once and compare available vehicles and pricing across the network. Every Ventura County school deserves easy group transportation, and Simivalleycharterbusservices.com makes it happen!

If you'd rather talk it through, call 805-327-0530 any day of the year.
Yes — the Reagan Library has limited bus parking. Buses enter from Presidential Drive. Educational program slots fill months in advance, so confirm your program registration with the library's Education Department at (800) 410-8354 before booking transportation, and lock in your bus early.
Buses for the California Science Center use Lot 2, the dedicated motorcoach lot off Figueroa Street in Exposition Park. The flat bus parking fee is $15 per vehicle, and pre-payment is recommended on busy school days. The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (900 Exposition Blvd) is adjacent and uses the same lot, so groups visiting both in one day park once and walk between the two.
Griffith Observatory has no bus parking on site. Buses drop students on Vermont Canyon Road near the observatory entrance and then stage in the lower lots below the hill until pickup. Build that into your timing — the walk from the Vermont Canyon drop point to the observatory entrance is short, but the bus cannot wait at the curb.
Confirm current access details on the Griffith Observatory visit page before your trip.
Book three to six months out for most field trips. Spring semester — February through May — is the busiest period for school group transportation across Ventura County and the greater LA area. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library's educational program slots fill independently, so your transportation needs to be locked in around the same time you confirm your program date.
Waiting until the last month means fewer available buses, higher rates, and the real risk of nothing left on your date.
Absolutely — and it's one of the closest major field trip destinations from Simi Valley at roughly 15 miles north via SR-118 and SR-23. Moorpark College's America's Teaching Zoo is one of only two accredited zoo programs at a community college in the country, making it a standout destination for biology and zoology curriculum. Buses park in the campus lot on Campus Road near the zoo entrance.
Call 805-327-0530 to compare minibuses and motorcoaches for your Moorpark date!
