Filoli Historic House & Garden
Located just a short drive from the heart of town at 86 Cañada Rd, Woodside, CA 94062, Filoli Historic House & Garden is one of the most beautiful and sought-after destinations for groups visiting the Redwood City area. This 654-acre estate features a stunning Georgian revival mansion and 16 acres of formal English Renaissance gardens that are a joy to tour year-round. If you are planning a garden club outing, a private historical tour, or even a wedding, Filoli offers an unforgettable backdrop. However, navigating the winding roads of Cañada Road and finding parking for multiple vehicles can be a headache. When you book with Charter Bus Redwood City, you can skip the stress of carpooling and arrive together in a climate-controlled bus rental. These drivers are experts at navigating the Peninsula and will ensure your group is dropped off directly at the main entrance.
For school groups and senior communities, Filoli provides a wealth of educational and sensory experiences. From the seasonal blooms in the Sunken Garden to the rich history of the Bourn and Roth families inside the house, there is something for everyone to enjoy. A charter bus rental allows your passengers to relax in plush, reclining seats and enjoy the scenic views through panoramic windows on the way to the estate. We can even provide a bus with a PA system so your tour leader can make announcements or share facts about the region before you even arrive. After your tour, your bus will be waiting in the designated oversized vehicle parking area to whisk your group away to your next stop, ensuring your itinerary stays exactly on schedule. Call us today at 408-498-1620 to learn more about our group transportation services to Filoli!
Pulgas Water Temple
The Pulgas Water Temple, located at 56 Cañada Rd, Redwood City, CA 94062, is an iconic monument that celebrates the completion of the Hetch Hetchy Aqueduct in 1934. This beautiful stone structure is a popular spot for photography, peaceful walks, and even small wedding ceremonies. Because it is situated in a relatively remote area of the Peninsula, coordinating rideshares or public transit can be nearly impossible for larger groups. Charter Bus Redwood City provides a seamless solution for groups wanting to visit this historical landmark. We have served thousands of groups since 2011, and we understand the importance of reliable, punctual service. Your driver will navigate the scenic route along I-280 and Cañada Road while your group enjoys amenities like high-speed WiFi and power outlets, perfect for sharing those stunning temple photos on social media instantly!
Whether you are hosting a team-building hike at the nearby trails or organizing a private family outing, a minibus or charter bus rental ensures that everyone stays together and on time. The Pulgas Water Temple has a small parking lot that can fill up quickly on weekends, but your private bus eliminates the need to search for spots. We can coordinate a drop-off at the temple and then have your driver stage nearby or wait in the designated bus lanes. Plus, for those hot California afternoons, your group will appreciate stepping back onto a cool, air-conditioned bus with plenty of cold water stashed in the overhead bins. If you need a ride for 10 or 100 people, Charter Bus Redwood City has the fleet to accommodate you. Let us handle the driving so you can focus on the history and beauty of the Hetch Hetchy engineering marvel. Call our 24/7 team today for an instant quote!
San Mateo County History Museum
Situated in the heart of Downtown Redwood City at 2200 Broadway St, Redwood City, CA 94063, the San Mateo County History Museum is a must-visit for school field trips, historical societies, and private groups. Housed in the old 1910 county courthouse, the museum features a spectacular stained-glass dome and interactive exhibits that detail the evolution of the Peninsula. Educators from the Redwood City School District and Sequoia Union High School District regularly trust Charter Bus Redwood City to provide comfortable and reliable field trip transportation. Unlike traditional school buses, our modern charter buses offer premium features like DVD players and flat-screen TVs, allowing you to show educational documentaries on the way to the museum. With onboard restrooms and comfortable seating, even a cross-county trip will feel like a breeze for students and chaperones alike.
Planning a corporate mixer or a private gala in the museum’s grand courtroom? We can provide sleek, executive-style shuttles to transport your VIPs and attendees between local hotels and the venue. Downtown Redwood City parking can be notoriously difficult and expensive, especially during business hours or major events. By reserving a private employee shuttle or event bus, you ensure that no one is late because they were circling the block for a parking space. Our reservation specialists will work with you to create a custom schedule that fits your event’s timeline perfectly. With Charter Bus Redwood City, you have been working with an experienced charter bus company in business since 2011, providing quality you can trust and prices you will love. Call 408-498-1620 today to get started with your museum trip planning!
Redwood City Courthouse Square
Courthouse Square, located at 2200 Broadway, Redwood City, CA 94063, is the community heartbeat of the city. Known for hosting "Music on the Square," "Movies on the Square," and the annual salsa festival, this open-air plaza is a top destination for groups of all kinds. If you are organizing a large group outing for a summer concert or bringing a corporate team for an outdoor dinner, a party bus or minibus rental is the best way to travel. Avoid the nightmare of trying to coordinate a dozen separate cars through the traffic on Jefferson Avenue or Middlefield Road. Instead, let your group ride together in a fully loaded party bus featuring wraparound leather seating, color-changing LED lights, and a premium Bluetooth sound system. The party starts as soon as you board your Charter Bus Redwood City rental!
For event organizers, we offer comprehensive event transportation services to help manage large crowds and synchronized arrivals. We can set up a dedicated shuttle circuit between the square and off-site parking lots or nearby Caltrain stations, ensuring that your guests arrive on time. This is especially helpful for large-scale festivals where road closures are common. Our 24/7 dispatch team is always available to handle last-minute schedule changes or route adjustments. Whether you are bringing a youth group for a holiday celebration or a tech team for a Friday night out, we have the perfect vehicle to suit your needs. With one of the largest fleets in the Bay Area, no trip is too big or too small for us to handle. Give us a call today at 408-498-1620 and let us simplify your Courthouse Square group transportation!
Edgewood Park & Natural Preserve
For nature lovers and outdoor adventurers, Edgewood Park & Natural Preserve (10 Old Stage Coach Rd, Redwood City, CA 94062) offers 467 acres of beautiful woodlands and grasslands. Famous for its spectacular spring wildflower displays, the park is a premier destination for hiking groups, science classes, and nonprofit organizations. Coordinating transportation for a large hiking group can be difficult, as the main parking lot off Edgewood Road is small and fills up early on weekend mornings. By booking a minibus rental with Charter Bus Redwood City, your group can enjoy door-to-door service without the stress of finding parking. Our minibuses are nimble enough to navigate the park’s entrance while still offering ample room for backpacks, hiking gear, and coolers filled with snacks and water.
If you are bringing a larger group, such as an entire grade level for a biology field trip, our 56-passenger charter buses provide the perfect solution. Students can use the onboard WiFi to complete digital worksheets or stream educational videos as they travel via Highway 280. Teachers and chaperones will appreciate the PA system for making announcements and keeping the group organized. After a long day of exploring the serpentine grasslands and oak woodlands, your passengers will love relaxing in plush, reclining seats for the ride home. We have served thousands of school and youth groups since 2011, and our commitment to comfort and reliability is second to none.

The Fox Theatre
The Fox Theatre at 2215 Broadway, Redwood City, CA 94063, is a historic landmark and one of the finest live performance venues on the Peninsula. Whether your group is attending a sold-out concert, a Broadway-style musical, or a corporate awards ceremony, The Fox Theatre provides a sophisticated and high-energy atmosphere. However, managing arrivals for a large group in the busy downtown corridor can be stressful. Rather than dealing with rideshare surge pricing or crowded public transit, consider a private bus rental from Charter Bus Redwood City. We specialize in providing timely, professional transportation for theater groups, fan clubs, and corporate organizations. Your driver will drop your group off curbside, just steps from the theater's ornate entrance, and will be ready to pick everyone up as soon as the final curtain falls.
For those looking to turn their night out into a true celebration, we offer premium party bus rentals equipped with all the "bells and whistles." Enjoy wraparound seating, fiber-optic lighting, and a built-in bar area with ice storage to keep the energy high between stops. If you have out-of-town guests staying at local hotels like the Grand Bay or el PRADO, we can arrange a recurring shuttle service to ensure everyone arrives for the show on time. We have over 15 years of experience handling logistics for major venues across Northern California, so you can rest assured your night is in competent hands. Don’t let traffic and parking dampen your evening—call Charter Bus Redwood City at 408-498-1620 today and let us handle the road for you!
Bair Island State Marine Park
Bair Island State Marine Park (Redwood Shores Pkwy, Redwood City, CA 94065) is a hidden gem for birdwatching, photography, and environmental education. As part of the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, this expansive wetland area is a critical habitat for endangered species like the Ridgway’s rail. Groups visiting for guided nature walks or volunteer restoration projects will find that a private minibus rental is the most efficient way to access the island’s trailheads. Located near the Redwood Shores neighborhood, the park can be tricky to navigate with multiple cars. A single minibus or charter bus rental keeps your group together and eliminates the need for complicated carpool chains along the 101 corridor.
Our buses offer plenty of storage space in the overhead bins and undercarriage compartments, making them ideal for carrying binoculars, spotting scopes, and field research equipment. While en route, your passengers can stay connected with fast onboard WiFi and keep their devices charged with personal power outlets. For long-distance groups coming from the East Bay or South Bay, our full-size motorcoaches include onboard restrooms to minimize pit stops and maximize your time in nature. Since 2011, Charter Bus Redwood City has worked with countless nonprofit and environmental organizations to provide customized transportation solutions.

Stafford Park
Stafford Park, located at 2101 Hopkins Ave, Redwood City, CA 94062, is a local favorite for its "Music in the Park" summer concert series and beautiful picnic areas. It is an ideal destination for family reunions, church picnics, and community gatherings. If you are organizing a large group event at the park, coordinating the arrival of dozens of family members and friends can be a logistical nightmare—especially with limited street parking in the surrounding residential neighborhood. A private shuttle bus rental from Charter Bus Redwood City is the smartest way to ensure everyone arrives together and has a guaranteed ride home. You can even bring your own coolers, chairs, and blankets on board, as our buses offer ample storage space for all your picnic essentials.
Smaller groups can opt for an 18- or 25-passenger minibus, which easily navigates the residential streets around Hopkins Avenue. For larger community events, we can dispatch a fleet of 56-passenger coaches to provide continuous shuttle service from nearby transit hubs or designated parking areas. Onboard amenities like air conditioning and reclining seats provide a much-needed break from the sun during those warm Redwood City summer days. With over a decade of experience serving the local community, Charter Bus Redwood City is the name you can trust for safe and reliable neighborhood shuttles. We put "your satisfaction" at the heart of everything we do. Call us today at 408-498-1620 and let's start planning your next outing to Stafford Park!
Frequently Asked Questions About Redwood City Group Travel Transportation
How much does a charter bus rental cost in Redwood City?
The cost of a charter bus rental in Redwood City ranges from $147 to $350+ per hour, $1,280 to $2,800+ per day, or $4.50 to $8.00 per mile. Your final price depends on the size of the vehicle, the duration of your trip, the time of year, and your specific itinerary. For example, a local 5-hour minibus shuttle for a wedding will cost significantly less than a multi-day charter bus trip to Lake Tahoe or Los Angeles. Peak seasons like spring (April–June) often have higher rates due to high demand for proms, graduations, and weddings. To get the most accurate and best price for your trip, we recommend calling our team at 408-498-1620 for a personalized quote.
What types of buses are available in the Redwood City area?
Charter Bus Redwood City offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets in Northern California! You can choose from 15-passenger sprinter vans, 18- to 35-passenger minibuses, and 40- to 56-passenger full-size charter buses. We also offer a wide selection of party buses that seat anywhere from 10 to 50 passengers, perfect for bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthdays, and concert trips. Our motorcoaches come from top manufacturers like MCI, Prevost, and Setra, ensuring you get a modern, reliable vehicle every time you book.

What amenities are included in a Redwood City bus rental?
Our buses come loaded with modern amenities designed to keep your passengers comfortable and entertained. Standard features on most charter buses and minibuses include powerful climate control, plush reclining seats, individual reading lights, and overhead storage bins. You can also request premium amenities like high-speed WiFi, personal power outlets, USB ports, flat-screen TVs with DVD players, and even an onboard restroom (standard on 40+ passenger coaches).

If you have specific needs, such as an ADA-accessible bus with a wheelchair lift, just let our reservation team know—we are committed to making group travel accessible for everyone!
How far in advance should I book my Redwood City charter bus?
To secure the best rates and ensure availability, we recommend booking your Redwood City charter bus rental at least 3 to 6 months in advance. If your trip falls during a peak travel season—such as the busy spring wedding and graduation months (April, May, June) or around major Bay Area events like Outside Lands or the SF Pride Parade—we suggest booking even earlier, ideally 6 to 9 months ahead. Redwood City is a busy hub for corporate travel and weddings, and vehicles can sell out quickly during high-demand weekends. However, if you have a last-minute request, don't hesitate to call! We are available 24/7/365 and will do our very best to find a quality vehicle for your group, even on short notice.
What factors affect my charter bus rental price in Redwood City?
Several key factors influence your final charter bus quote. First is the "duration and distance"—local trips are usually billed hourly with a minimum requirement, while long-distance or multi-day trips are billed by the day or mile. Second is "seasonality"—demand is higher in late spring and summer, which can drive up prices. Third is the "type of bus"—larger 56-passenger motorcoaches cost more than compact minibuses, although the per-person cost is often lower. Fourth is "deadhead"—this is the mileage your bus travels from our garage to your pickup location; providing precise addresses helps us minimize this cost for you.
