A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Historic Downtown Upland
For groups looking to experience the charm of a bygone era mixed with modern dining and shopping, Historic Downtown Upland is the perfect starting point. Located around 2nd Avenue and 9th Street, this district features classic architecture, antique shops, and the iconic gazebo that serves as a community gathering spot. A charter bus rental is the ideal way to visit Downtown Upland, as street parking can be scarce during weekends and special events like the Lemon Festival. Your driver can drop your group off right near the downtown gazebo, allowing you to explore the local boutiques, grab a coffee at a local roaster, or enjoy a group dinner at one of the many gastropubs without worrying about meters or splitting up into different vehicles.
Whether you are organizing a corporate lunch or a sightseeing tour for history buffs, Downtown Upland offers a walkable environment that encourages group bonding. After a few hours of shopping and dining, your private shuttle will be waiting to pick you up and whisk you away to your next destination. This area is also a fantastic backdrop for wedding photos if you are utilizing a wedding shuttle service between a local ceremony site and a reception venue.
Historic Downtown Upland 2nd Ave & 9th St, Upland, CA 91786
Cooper Regional History Museum
If you are planning an educational field trip or a tour for history enthusiasts, the Cooper Regional History Museum is a must-visit destination. Housed in a 1930s Art Moderne style building, the museum is dedicated to preserving the history of Upland and the surrounding Cucamonga Valley. It features fascinating exhibits on the area's citrus industry heritage, local Native American history, and the development of the region. Transportation for school groups and senior centers is made easy with Charter Bus Upland. Instead of coordinating parent volunteers or cramming into vans, a charter bus rental ensures that all students, chaperones, and educators arrive together, safely and on time.
Our buses come equipped with overhead storage for backpacks and personal items, keeping the aisles clear and safe. Additionally, you can request a bus with a PA system, allowing teachers or tour guides to give a brief history lesson or rundown of the museum exhibits while en route. The museum is located in a busy residential and commercial area, so having a driver handle the logistics of dropping off at the front entrance makes the experience stress-free for organizers.

The Madonna of the Trail & Euclid Avenue
One of Upland's most defining features is the historic Euclid Avenue, a stunning, tree-lined street with a wide median bridle path that stretches from the foothills down through the city. At the intersection of Euclid Avenue and Foothill Boulevard stands the Madonna of the Trail, one of only 12 monuments dedicated to the spirit of pioneer women in the United States. This is a significant landmark for sightseeing groups, photography clubs, or anyone interested in Americana. Renting a charter bus allows your group to cruise down the scenic Euclid Avenue, enjoying the views of the Craftsman-style homes and the looming mountains without the distraction of driving.
Your charter bus driver can navigate the flow of traffic on Foothill Boulevard (historic Route 66) and find a safe location to unload your group for photos at the monument. This location is particularly popular during the holidays when the median is decorated, or for groups who want to take a leisurely walk along the bridle path. With large panoramic windows, a motorcoach offers the best vantage point for taking in the scenic beauty of this historic avenue.

Upland Memorial Park
For groups seeking outdoor recreation, a company picnic, or a community gathering, Upland Memorial Park is the crown jewel of the city's park system. This expansive green space features picnic areas, a skate park, and the Upland Veterans Monument. It is a fantastic destination for youth sports teams needing space to warm up, church groups hosting a barbecue, or corporate teams looking for team-building activities outdoors. When you book a bus rental with Charter Bus Upland for a park outing, you have plenty of undercarriage storage for coolers, sports equipment, folding chairs, and outdoor games.
Parking at large public parks can often be chaotic, especially during summer weekends or community events. By arriving in a private charter bus, your group avoids the headache of circling for spots. We can arrange for a drop-off right near the picnic shelters or the monuments. Afterward, your group can retreat into the air-conditioned comfort of the bus, which is a welcome relief after a day in the Southern California sun.

Cable Airport
Cable Airport holds the title of the world's largest family-owned, public-use airport and is a unique destination for aviation enthusiasts, school groups, or anyone looking for a distinct dining experience. Located in the northern part of Upland, the airport offers great views of small aircraft taking off and landing against the backdrop of the mountains. Many groups visit specifically to dine at Maniac Mike's Café, an on-site restaurant known for its hearty breakfasts and runway views. A charter bus rental is the perfect transportation solution for large lunch groups or aviation clubs visiting the site.
Navigating the entrance and finding parking for multiple vehicles at an active airport can be confusing. With a driver from Charter Bus Upland, you are dropped off right at the restaurant or viewing area. If you are visiting for an air show or a special event, a shuttle bus ensures your group stays together. The ride up to the northern part of the city offers beautiful views, and your passengers can enjoy the scenery from the comfort of reclining seats.
Cable Airport 1749 W 13th St, Upland, CA 91786
California Botanic Garden
Just on the border of Upland and Claremont lies the California Botanic Garden, the largest stimulating garden dedicated to California native plants. This 86-acre site is a tranquil escape and a favorite for wedding ceremonies, educational tours, and senior citizen outings. The garden features miles of walking trails and distinct plant communities. Because the garden is expansive, having a charter bus rental is essential for larger groups to arrive efficiently. We can coordinate with the garden staff for designated bus parking and drop-off zones.
This is a particularly popular spot for field trips and private garden clubs. After walking the trails, your group will appreciate the comfort of a climate-controlled bus waiting to take them to lunch or back home. Whether you are attending the annual Wildflower Show or a summer concert in the garden, Charter Bus Upland ensures your transportation is as relaxing as the destination itself.

San Antonio Winery, Ontario
Located just minutes from Upland in nearby Ontario, the San Antonio Winery is a historic landmark and a fantastic destination for adult birthday parties, bachelorette parties, and corporate networking events. As one of the oldest producing wineries in Los Angeles, this location offers tastings, a restaurant, and a gift shop. Booking a party bus or minibus for a winery tour is the safest and most responsible way to enjoy the day. With a driver acting as your designated driver, everyone in your group can participate in wine tastings without worry.
Our shuttle buses can be equipped with entertainment systems so you can play music and keep the festive atmosphere going between your pickup location in Upland and the winery.

Let Charter Bus Upland handle the logistics while you enjoy the vintage.

Mount Baldy
For groups craving adventure, Mount Baldy is just a short drive up the mountain from Upland. Whether you are planning a winter ski trip, a summer hiking excursion to the San Antonio Falls, or a scenic lunch at the Top of the Notch restaurant, Mount Baldy provides an alpine escape minutes from the city. However, the mountain roads are winding and steep, which can be intimidating for drivers unfamiliar with the terrain. Renting a charter bus with an reliable driver ensures safety and peace of mind as you ascend into the Angeles National Forest.
Our buses have ample undercarriage storage, making them perfect for ski clubs needing space for skis, snowboards, and winter gear, or hikers with backpacks and trekking poles. After a physically demanding day on the slopes or trails, your group can rest their legs in plush, reclining seats on the ride back down to Upland. It turns a potentially stressful drive into a relaxing part of the adventure.
