Bus Rentals to The Strong and Rochester's Top Museums
If you're planning a museum field trip in Rochester, you already know how much students love a day at The Strong National Museum of Play (1 Manhattan Square Drive, Rochester, NY 14607). Charter buses use the drop-off lane on Adventure Place at The Strong, with limited bus parking available off site — the museum garage cannot accommodate buses — and group visit requests must be submitted online at least two weeks in advance. The Strong's group reservation FAQ has the bus drop-off instructions.
The Rochester Museum & Science Center (657 East Avenue, Rochester, NY 14607) and George Eastman Museum (900 East Avenue, Rochester, NY 14607) both take bus drop-offs along East Avenue, with staging on Goodman Street North. One bus keeps every student and chaperone together from school to entrance — no parking scramble, no carpool coordination. Compare buses and pricing in 30 seconds!
Charter Buses to Seneca Park Zoo and Genesee Country Village
Use Busrentalrochester.com to find the right bus for two of Rochester's most popular outdoor and living-history field trips!

When you leave, gather everyone at the front of the Zoo; a Visitor Services Representative calls your bus so you are not sending students into a parking-lot search.
The Seneca Park Zoo group visit instructions cover the arrival and departure sequence. Genesee Country Village & Museum (1410 Flint Hill Road, Mumford, NY 14511), about 25 miles southwest of Rochester, has a large lot that comfortably accommodates charter buses and school buses with advance group reservations.

On a clear day, there's no better environmental science field trip in Western New York than Letchworth State Park (1 Letchworth State Park, Castile, NY 14427), about 55 miles south of Rochester via I-390. Large parking areas at the Highbanks and Portageville entrances accommodate charter buses, and advance group reservations are handled through the park office at (585) 493-3600. The gorge trails, three major waterfalls, and geology programming make Letchworth a perennial favorite for grades 4 through 12.
