Science Field Trips to Discovery Cube Orange County Made Easy
Forget juggling parent carpool sign-ups for your next STEM field trip! Discovery Cube Orange County (2500 N Main St, Santa Ana, CA 92705) is one of the most popular field trip destinations for Tustin-area schools, and it's just a short hop up CA-55 N from central Tustin. Bus drop-off is curbside on North Main Street, with buses pulling forward to the Ticket Booth for parking instructions.
One minibus or motorcoach keeps your whole class together from the school parking lot to the museum entrance — no staggered carpool arrival times, no students waiting outside while the last car finds parking. Compare available buses for your date in seconds using the online quote tool, or call 949-570-5290 to get a custom package built around your group size and schedule!
After unloading at Discovery Cube Orange County, buses are directed to offsite parking, while cars pay $10 for onsite parking. Your bus unloads the class first and moves out of the visitor lot, so students can head inside without waiting for a coach to find a space; arrive 10–15 minutes before the scheduled field trip start for check-in and orientation. See the Discovery Cube Orange County field trip parking guide for the current arrival sequence.
One Bus Keeps Every Student Together for Knott's School Days

Mission San Juan Capistrano requires full payment or a purchase order at least 60 days before the field trip, and tentative holds can be canceled at 45 days.

The Mission San Juan Capistrano field-trip booking information carries the current timing.

A 56-passenger motorcoach with an onboard restroom and undercarriage luggage bays is the right call for either trip — compare available coaches in seconds using the online quote tool!
For a K–12 school visit booked through Getty School Group Reservations, parking is free, and Getty Security directs buses to the school-bus spaces inside North Entry Parking.

See the Getty Center school-bus arrival instructions for the current process.
With Outdoor Education at Irvine Regional Park, the Right Bus Makes All the Difference
With outdoor education programs at the Irvine Ranch Outdoor Education Center (1 Irvine Park Rd, Orange, CA 92869) just about 7 miles from Tustin via Santiago Canyon Road, getting your class there is simple when everyone rides together. Charter buses access the site via Santiago Canyon Road into Irvine Regional Park, with bus parking available in the main park lot — confirm the current bus parking rate with the park directly at 714-973-6835 before your visit, as fees apply and are not included in your transportation quote.
