Charter Buses for Bronx Zoo and New York Botanical Garden Field Trips
With Yonkerscharterbusservices.com, you can easily find a charter bus for one of the most popular field trip routes out of Yonkers — south on I-87 to the Bronx. The Bronx Zoo (2300 Southern Blvd, Bronx, NY 10460) is just 6 miles from Yonkers, and buses use the Southern Boulevard lot for parking. The New York Botanical Garden (2900 Southern Blvd, Bronx, NY 10458) is right next door, with school buses stopping at the Everett Garden Gate on Southern Boulevard, across from Fordham University, before being directed to unload or proceed elsewhere.
Both destinations require advance group reservations — and your bus is the one thing you can lock in right now. Compare buses and pricing in seconds using the online quote tool!
Bronx Zoo bus parking costs $24 per bus and is limited, first come, first served; if you want parking added to a school program order, the zoo asks for that request at least four weeks before your visit through its Bronx Zoo field-trip parking instructions. Your bus gets the Southern Boulevard parking answer before the class ever leaves Yonkers.
Minibus Rentals to Hudson River Museum and the Yonkers Waterfront
You don't always need to leave Yonkers for a great field trip! The Hudson River Museum offers school group programs and planetarium shows, with buses dropping students curbside on Warburton Ave and staging along adjacent Trevor Park while the group is inside. School group dates require advance reservations confirmed at least four weeks ahead, and six weeks is the museum's recommended lead time.
The Science Barge at 99 Pier St, Yonkers, NY 10702 brings hands-on STEM education to the waterfront, with buses staging in the surface lot at the Yonkers Pier. For either destination, a 15- to 35-passenger minibus is the right call — nimble enough for Yonkers streets, comfortable enough for your whole class. Yonkerscharterbusservices.com makes it easy to compare minibuses and pricing in seconds. Call 914-369-7355 anytime!
Yonkerscharterbusservices.com Makes Manhattan Field Trips Easy for Yonkers Schools
Yonkerscharterbusservices.com makes finding a charter bus for Manhattan field trips straightforward — even with NYC traffic and tight drop-off rules to navigate. For the American Museum of Natural History (Central Park West at 79th St, New York, NY 10024), charter buses use the 81st Street driveway, drop students in the garage, and receive an assigned departure time; buses may not layover on 81st Street. At the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum (Pier 86, 12th Ave & 46th St, New York, NY 10036), buses use the parking lot on the northbound side of 12th Avenue between 45th and 46th Streets for passenger drop-off and pickup; NYC does not permit bus loading on the southbound side in front of the museum.
Both destinations require advance group reservations. Compare full-size charter buses from the network for your next Manhattan field trip!
No Parkway Headaches — Find the Right Bus for Westchester Routes
No two field trip routes out of Yonkers are the same, and some roads come with real restrictions your group needs to know about. The Saw Mill River Parkway prohibits commercial vehicles entirely — charter buses cannot use it. The Cross County Parkway, like the Saw Mill River Parkway, is not a bus route because New York State's commercial-traffic guidance bars commercial traffic on parkways.
For most Westchester and NYC field trips, the right routing runs via I-87 (New York State Thruway) or US-9 (Central Park Ave). The good news: through the Yonkerscharterbusservices.com network, you can compare minibuses and full-size coaches side by side, find the right vehicle for your specific route, and let the transportation details sort themselves out. Call 914-369-7355 and a live agent can help you find the best fit for your itinerary!
If You're Planning a Liberty Science Center or NJ Field Trip, a Charter Bus Is the Smart Call
If you're organizing a field trip to Liberty Science Center (222 Jersey City Blvd, Jersey City, NJ 07305), a charter bus is by far the easiest way to get your group there. Liberty Science Center has a dedicated on-site bus parking lot — one of the most bus-friendly major field trip destinations in the region — and the drive from Yonkers runs roughly 25 miles via I-87 S and the George Washington Bridge. Keep in mind that the GWB bus toll is currently $75 for a three-axle bus, and that cost is separate from your rental quote.
Through Yonkerscharterbusservices.com, you can compare 40- to 56-passenger charter buses from a network of companies serving Yonkers and the tri-state area, find the right vehicle for your group size, and get pricing in under a minute. Use the online quote tool or call 914-369-7355 today!

A 15- to 35-passenger minibus works well for smaller classes or local Yonkers trips to destinations like the Hudson River Museum or Lenoir Nature Preserve, where tight streets and small parking areas make a compact vehicle the better choice. A 40- to 56-passenger charter bus is ideal for full-class trips into the Bronx or Manhattan, with room for every student and undercarriage storage for backpacks and gear. Yonkerscharterbusservices.com lets you compare both side by side — call 914-369-7355 or use the online tool to see what's available for your date.

September and October also see heavy demand as the fall semester gets underway.
Waiting until the last minute means fewer vehicle options and higher prices, so lock in your date as soon as your field trip is approved.
