Partybus-rental.net lets you fill out one quick form and instantly compare vehicles, pictures, packages, and pricing from a large network of bus companies serving Bakersfield and the entire Central Valley.

Whatever your group needs, the network has the vehicle for it! Search and compare sprinter vans for smaller groups, 15- to 35-passenger minibuses for mid-size crews, 15- to 50-passenger party buses loaded with LED lighting and a built-in bar, 40- to 56-passenger charter buses for large groups and long hauls, and school buses for field trips across Kern County. Compare vehicle photos, amenities, and pricing — all in one place, in under 30 seconds!
Buses and vehicles shown above are NOT the exact makes and models available for every trip. We are NOT a bus company and do not own or operate vehicles. Photos are examples only and may show stock or typical vehicles, not the exact vehicle offered for your reservation. Fill out the online quote form or call 833-458-7001 to view current vehicle options, photos, availability, and pricing. Confirm the exact vehicle details and amenities before booking.
Not every Bakersfield trip calls for the same ride. A 25-passenger party bus headed to a birthday night out typically comes with a full-length bar area, color-changing LED lighting, a Bluetooth sound system, flat-panel TVs, and wraparound perimeter seating — the party starts on the way there. A minibus is the right fit for a corporate shuttle between downtown hotels and a conference venue, with reclining seats, climate control, and overhead storage keeping things comfortable without the over-the-top setup.
For larger groups — a company outing, a school field trip, a multi-stop wine tour — a full-size charter bus brings undercarriage luggage bays, onboard restrooms, WiFi, and power outlets. Amenities vary by vehicle and company, so use the quote tool to compare what's available on your date. Call 833-458-7001 if you want help narrowing it down!

Amenities listed above are common features that MAY be available on party buses. Because we are a referral website and do NOT own or operate buses, exact features vary by vehicle, provider, and availability.

Choosing the right bus for your Bakersfield trip doesn't have to mean hours of research or a half-dozen phone calls. Partybus-rental.net puts instant online pricing in your hands in seconds — just enter your date, group size, and pickup location to unlock real quotes from a network of bus companies serving Bakersfield and Kern County. No account required. No callbacks. No waiting.
Pricing moves based on a few key factors: the type of bus and how many passengers it holds, the date and time of your trip, how many stops are on the itinerary, and any extra amenities your group wants — like onboard WiFi, power outlets, an onboard restroom, or undercarriage luggage bays for a long-distance run down to Los Angeles. A Saturday night party bus for a bachelorette crew prices differently than a Wednesday charter bus to LAX, and a Disneyland day trip prices differently than a Bakersfield-to-Dodger Stadium game day. The fastest way to know the exact number for your specific trip? Well, no need to fear — 30-second online pricing is here!

One Search. More Options.
Fill out one form and compare party buses, minibuses, charter buses, and more from a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving Bakersfield — and find what you need in under 30 seconds! That's the Partybus-rental.net difference. You're not limited to one company's fleet, one company's pricing, or one company's available dates. You're comparing across a whole network at once, with real vehicle photos, instant quotes, and package options that include one-ways, round-trips, and multi-day itineraries.
Why call five companies for one date? Why wait around on callbacks? Why describe your trip over and over to people who may not even have a bus available? You don't have to. Enter your trip details once — your date, your group size, your pickup city, your destination — and you'll land on a results page showing you exactly what's available for your group. Compare vehicles, compare prices, compare amenities, and choose the bus that works for YOU.
And anytime you need help, a live team is available every day of the year at 833-458-7001 — ready to answer questions, build custom packages, and make sure your transportation is locked in before the date fills. You'll love that Partybus-rental.net isn't a bus company — because that means you're comparing across a whole network instead of one fleet, every single time. Find your next bus rental the smart way!
Just tell Partybus-rental.net where your group is headed! From airport transfers and game-day charters to wedding shuttles, bachelorette parties, prom, sporting events, concerts, corporate shuttles, and school field trips — whatever brings your group together in Bakersfield, there's a bus in the network ready for it. Call 833-458-7001 to get your group moving today!

Instead of splitting your group into a caravan of cars — everyone paying for their own gas, their own parking, and their own navigation on the 99 — one bus keeps everything simple from the moment you leave your driveway. Partybus-rental.net makes it easy to find and compare airport transportation sized exactly to your group, whether you're headed to Meadows Field Airport (BFL) (3701 Wings Way, Bakersfield, CA 93308) for a domestic flight, or making the run south to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) (1 World Way, Los Angeles, CA 90045) for a larger connection.
At BFL, commercial vehicle pickup follows the terminal's arrivals drive loop — have your whole group assembled with all bags in hand before the bus is called, because California's commercial idling rules mean curbside wait time is limited. At LAX, charter bus pickups route through the designated ground transportation lanes on the lower level — call your group together at baggage claim before signaling for the bus so the pickup stays smooth and fast.
A minibus handles a smaller travel group with carry-ons and personal bags. A 56-passenger charter bus with undercarriage luggage bays is the call when the group is large and the bags are heavy. Compare both — and every size in between — in under 30 seconds! Check current pickup protocols at Meadows Field's official airport page and LAX ground transportation before your trip. Call 833-458-7001 to lock in your airport run!

The bachelorette crew has one night to do it right — and the last thing anyone needs is a parking nightmare on Buck Owens Boulevard or three separate rideshares trying to find each other at the same bar. A party bus in Bakersfield fixes all of that before it starts. Your group loads up together, the first stop is already programmed, and the built-in bar and Bluetooth sound system mean the celebration kicks off the second the doors close.
Start the evening at Buck Owens' Crystal Palace (2800 Buck Owens Blvd, Bakersfield, CA 93308) for live honky-tonk and dinner, then let the bus handle the night from there — Uproar Brewing, downtown Bakersfield cocktail stops, wherever the itinerary takes you. You set the stops. You set the timing. You enjoy the ride.
A 15- to 50-passenger party bus comes with a full-length bar, color-changing LED lighting, a premium Bluetooth sound system, flat-panel TVs, and wraparound perimeter seating — so the energy builds from the first pickup through the last drop-off. Partybus-rental.net lets you compare party buses from a whole network of Bakersfield-area providers, so you find the right size and the right amenities without calling around. Use the 30-second online quote tool — or call 833-458-7001 and a live agent will build the package around your itinerary!

With Partybus-rental.net, you'll have your pick of party buses, minibuses, and charter buses from a large network — so a milestone birthday in Bakersfield doesn't have to mean coordinating five separate cars, five separate parking spots, and five separate Venmo requests at the end of the night. One bus keeps the whole group together from the first pickup to the last drop-off, with the amenities to match the occasion.
Planning a milestone birthday? Start with dinner at a Bakersfield favorite, then let a party bus handle the rest of the evening — built-in bar, LED lighting, Bluetooth sound, and the whole crew together every step of the way. Or take the group on a day trip: the bus loads up in Bakersfield and heads south to Universal Studios Hollywood or over to the wine country around Paso Robles (~85 miles via CA-46 W) for a full-day birthday tour. Buses come in white, black, silver, and other colors — ask when you request your quote if you want to match the party theme.
Compare birthday party buses and charter buses from a network of providers serving Bakersfield — all in one place, in under 30 seconds. Or call 833-458-7001 any time and a live agent will put together a custom package just for you!

Why limit yourself to hoping your rideshare shows up after the show? When Dignity Health Arena (1001 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301) has a major act on its calendar — or your group is making the run south to the Hollywood Bowl (2301 N Highland Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90068) or a stadium show at SoFi Stadium (1001 Stadium Dr, Inglewood, CA 90301) — a concert bus handles the whole night, both ways.
For the Hollywood Bowl, parking and oversized-vehicle arrangements vary by event. Review the Bowl's official getting-here page and its Park & Ride shuttle guide before your date, then confirm the current bus drop-off, parking, and exit instructions for the specific show. The Bowl's posted event information controls over any general trip-planning estimate, including the event's parking cutoff and lot opening time for your ticketed event date.
Want to upgrade the ride down to the show? A 15- to 50-passenger party bus turns the 2-hour drive from Bakersfield into part of the event — built-in bar, Bluetooth sound, and the whole group together before a single song plays. Compare concert buses in under 30 seconds!

Fill out one form and let Partybus-rental.net make Bakersfield corporate transportation the easy part of the day. Whether you're shuttling staff to the Dignity Health Arena, Theater & Convention Center (1001 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301) for a conference, moving a team to an off-site event across Kern County, or setting up a recurring employee shuttle between satellite offices — one form gets you instant pricing from a network of bus companies ready for any corporate group travel need.
Charter buses built for corporate work come with onboard WiFi for early-morning check-ins, reclining seats, power outlets for every passenger, and overhead storage for bags. A 15- to 35-passenger minibus is nimble enough for in-city shuttles between downtown Bakersfield hotels and the convention center. A full 56-passenger motorcoach with undercarriage luggage bays handles the larger groups or longer hauls — like a team headed down I-5 to Los Angeles for a client meeting or a convention at the L.A. Convention Center.
Need a fleet of buses for a large event, or a single bus by the hour? Both are available through the network. You can book one bus or several, one day or ongoing. Compare vehicles and packages from a network of providers serving Bakersfield — or call 833-458-7001 to put together a custom corporate package!

With one quick form, Partybus-rental.net helps you lock in transportation for any private event in Bakersfield — no matter the size, the venue, or the itinerary. Family reunions hitting multiple stops across Kern County. Private corporate parties at the Crystal Palace. Group outings to the Kern County Museum (3801 Chester Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301) or a day trip to Sequoia National Park. Whatever brings your crew together, a bus makes it easier — everyone arrives together, leaves together, and nobody has to figure out parking at every stop.
For the Kern County Fair at the Kern County Fairgrounds (1142 S P St, Bakersfield, CA 93307), which draws tens of thousands of attendees each fall, a charter bus drops the group at the main gate and avoids the event-day parking scramble entirely. For multi-stop Bakersfield days — lunch in the Stockdale area, a brewery tour at Temblor Brewing (3200 Buck Owens Blvd), and an evening show downtown — one bus keeps the whole itinerary on track without juggling multiple cars between venues.
Compare private event buses from a network of local providers in under 30 seconds — or call 833-458-7001 and build a custom package around your exact itinerary!

Your group only gets one prom night — and it deserves more than a Lyft surge and a 45-minute wait outside the venue. Bakersfield's biggest high schools — Bakersfield High, Centennial High, Liberty High, West High, and every other school in Kern County — fill the same late April and May weekends every single year. When every group in the district is booking at the same time, the best buses at the best prices go first.
Book by January or February at the latest — prom season is Bakersfield's single busiest stretch for party bus and charter bus rentals, and waiting until March or April will cost you more money and may leave you with no availability at all. Partybus-rental.net makes it easy to compare prom party buses and minibuses from a network of local providers — so you can find the right size, the right amenities, and the right price before the date fills.
A 15- to 50-passenger party bus is the classic prom choice: built-in bar (for the chaperones!), color-changing LEDs, Bluetooth sound, and perimeter seating so the whole group faces each other for the big night. Compare availability in under 30 seconds — or call 833-458-7001 now to hold your date!

Call Partybus-rental.net and check school field trip transportation off the list before the permission slips even go home. Coordinating parent drivers for a class of 30 across Kern County highways is the kind of logistical headache that nobody signed up for — and a charter bus solves all of it. One vehicle, one pickup, one drop-off, and every student and chaperone accounted for the whole day.
Take a class to the Kern County Museum (3801 Chester Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301) — 16 acres of living history and Pioneer Village — with the bus unloading at the Chester Ave main entrance and parking in the museum's on-site lot. Or venture outside Kern County: the bus makes easy work of a day trip to the California Living Museum (CALM) (10500 Alfred Harrell Hwy, Bakersfield, CA 93306) for a wildlife and nature science visit right in Bakersfield's own backyard.
Partybus-rental.net lets you compare field trip buses and school buses from a network of local providers — and match the vehicle to your exact student-plus-chaperone headcount instead of the other way around. ADA-accessible vehicles are available through the network too — just mention it when you request your quote. Call 833-458-7001 to get your class on the road!

Don't let parking logistics at Dodger Stadium eat your pregame. From Bakersfield, it's roughly 110 miles south to Dodger Stadium (1000 Vin Scully Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012) — and once you're in Los Angeles, a charter bus is the difference between arriving together with energy to spare and splitting the group across four cars navigating Chavez Ravine.
At Dodger Stadium, oversized vehicles use the stadium's designated bus and oversized-vehicle parking arrangements, with access and lot assignments set by current game-day instructions. The Dodgers' current parking page lists bus, limo, and oversized pricing separately from general parking. Confirm the current bus drop-off route, lot assignment, parking price, and payment details on the official Dodgers parking page before game day.
For Bakersfield Condors hockey at Dignity Health Arena (1001 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301), a minibus handles hometown game-day shuttles perfectly — drop-off on Truxtun Avenue and parking in the adjacent surface lots. Want the tailgate to start in Bakersfield? A party bus with a built-in bar and sound system keeps the energy going the whole way down to LA. Stop calling company after company — fill out one form to compare pricing from a network of bus companies serving Bakersfield!

Ready to compare wedding buses in Bakersfield and check transportation off the planning list for good? Partybus-rental.net makes it simple — one form, one results page, and instant pricing from a network of independently owned transportation providers. Whether you need a minibus to loop between the hotel block and your ceremony venue, a charter bus to shuttle guests between a ranch venue outside town and a downtown reception, or a party bus for the bachelorette crew the night before, you can compare every option side by side without a single callback.
Bakersfield's top wedding venues — from estate properties in the Stockdale area to historic event spaces downtown — each have their own approach for bus drop-off and parking. A charter bus drops guests right at the ceremony entrance, parks nearby until the reception, and stages again for the hotel return at the end of the night. Your guests bond on the ride, arrive together, and nobody is hunting for parking on a formal event night.
You can even request buses in white, black, or silver to match your wedding colors — just mention it when you request your quote. Compare wedding bus rentals from a network of Bakersfield-area providers, or call 833-458-7001 and a live agent will build a package around your full wedding weekend timeline!

We help you compare brewery and winery tour buses in Bakersfield so the only thing your group has to worry about is what to order next. Kern County sits at the southern end of California's Central Valley wine corridor — and a 90-minute run west on CA-46 puts your group in the heart of Paso Robles wine country, one of California's most celebrated wine regions, without a single designated driver discussion.
Start local: Temblor Brewing Company (3200 Buck Owens Blvd, Bakersfield, CA 93308) is a Bakersfield brewery and event venue with a taproom and patio. Confirm current group arrangements before arrival. From there, the itinerary is yours — more Bakersfield taprooms, or a full Paso Robles run through wineries like Justin, Opolo, and Tablas Creek along the Westside wine trail.
No splitting into multiple cars at every tasting room. No worrying about the drive home. Compare winery tour buses from a network of Central Valley transportation providers — or call 833-458-7001 to build a custom Paso Robles or Bakersfield brewery crawl package today!

Spend 30 seconds on one form to browse party buses, minibuses, and charter buses from local providers across Kern County and all of Southern and Central California.

Nearby Cities You Can Get Bus Rentals To
Meadows Field Airport (BFL) (3701 Wings Way, Bakersfield, CA 93308) is a regional airport with one terminal building. Confirm the current commercial-vehicle pickup procedure before arrival, and have your group assemble with all bags ready to board.
Here is the detail that makes or breaks the pickup. California law caps commercial vehicle idling at five minutes, so the bus holds on Wings Way or in the outer lot and pulls to the curb only when your coordinator calls — not a moment before. Give everyone one job before landing: exit the terminal, collect every checked bag, and get to the curb together before calling for the bus. Done in that order, boarding takes two minutes. Done out of order, the bus has to circle back and you lose 10 to 15 minutes on a busy afternoon.
Confirm current charter bus access protocols directly with Kern County Airports at (661) 391-1800 before your trip, as curbside assignments can change. Review the official Meadows Field page before your date.
At Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) (1 World Way, Los Angeles, CA 90045), charter bus drop-off for departing passengers uses the upper level Departures roadway at your specific terminal — follow the commercial vehicle/bus zone markings for your airline's terminal.
For pickup of arriving passengers, LAX routes pre-arranged ground transportation through designated commercial vehicle lanes on the lower Arrivals level. Your group must be fully assembled with all luggage before the bus is called to the curb — LAX enforces strict curbside time limits and commercial vehicles cannot idle or loop waiting for a staggered group. The bus stages in a commercial vehicle holding area off the terminal roadway until your coordinator gives the all-clear.
LAX has undergone significant ground transportation changes in recent years, and protocols for charter buses differ from the general rideshare pickup areas. Confirm current charter bus procedures on the LAX ground transportation page before your trip — the exact staging lane and pickup zone for your terminal can shift by construction phase and event schedule.
At Dodger Stadium (1000 Vin Scully Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012), charter and oversized buses drop off passengers at the designated unloading zone accessed via Academy Road on the north side of the stadium. After drop-off, the bus parks in Lot 13 — the north-side oversized vehicle lot — for the duration of the game.
One prepaid bus parking pass must be purchased in advance through the Dodgers' official parking portal. Payment is cashless at the gate. Lots open 90 minutes before first pitch for most games. Do not plan to sort the bus pass in the entry lane — the pass must be secured before arrival, and day-of availability is not guaranteed.
Lot designations and access roads can shift for playoff games and special events. Confirm current oversized-vehicle procedures on the official Dodgers parking page before game day.
Charter buses and other oversized vehicles (16 or more passengers) drop off and pick up on the northbound curb lane on Kareem Court, accessed via westbound Pincay Drive. The correct GPS destination address for the bus approach is 3178 Pincay Dr, Inglewood, CA 90305 — the stadium's main address will route the bus incorrectly for oversized vehicles.
Because SoFi Stadium classifies buses and motorcoaches as oversized vehicles, follow the event-specific oversized-vehicle instructions rather than standard-car parking directions. For NFL events, the official page identifies Hyundai Pink Zone Lot P and requires an oversized-vehicle parking pass; non-NFL events may use a different zone and entrance. For non-NFL events, the page identifies the Red Zone for oversized vehicles and directs entry via Century Boulevard and Yukon Avenue. Parking opening times also vary by event, so confirm the current pass, entrance, and lot details on the SoFi Stadium parking and transportation page before your trip.
In the Bowl's own words: "all parking lots are stack parked and there is no early exit." Every car in Lot A — $55 stacked or $90 valet — is boxed in until the full lot clears after the show. A charter bus skips all of that.
Your bus grabs one prepaid oversized-vehicle parking pass ($90, purchased in advance through the Bowl Box Office before your show date) and enters via the oversized vehicle gate. Lots open three hours before showtime. The bus drops the group at the Highland Avenue entrance, parks in the designated oversized lot, and stages for your pre-arranged post-show pickup time while every stacked car waits in the exit line. The bus can also stage off-site and pick up at a pre-arranged curb spot on Highland Avenue if on-site oversized parking is not preferred.
Review current access details and timing on the Bowl's official getting-here page and its Park & Ride and Bowl Shuttle guide before your date, since lot procedures can change by event.
At Rose Bowl Stadium (1001 Rose Bowl Dr, Pasadena, CA 91103), charter buses use the stadium's designated oversized-vehicle parking areas, with traffic staff directing vehicles to the current location and approach.
Oversized-vehicle parking terms, pricing, and advance-purchase windows vary by event; some official event instructions allow day-of purchase when space remains, while others set a separate advance cutoff. Official event instructions also direct oversized vehicles to West Drive and specify how long vehicles may remain after the event. Contact Rose Bowl Guest Services at (626) 577-3100 or check the stadium parking portal for the specific event before traveling, and follow the event's posted departure window.
Pasadena enforces residential permit-only parking in the neighborhoods surrounding the Bowl on event days, so buses must use designated stadium lots — street staging outside the lot system is not an option. Confirm current access and lot assignments on the Rose Bowl website before your trip.
At Disneyland Resort (1313 Disneyland Dr, Anaheim, CA 92802), charter and motorcoach buses must follow the resort's current designated bus drop-off and parking directions. The bus cannot remain at a passenger curb after drop-off, so confirm the current staging location and approach for your visit.
Bus parking prices, payment rules, and group arrangements at Disneyland can change. Check the resort's official parking information and confirm current bus staging and parking details before your trip.
Confirm current charter bus access procedures on the Disneyland Resort parking information page before your trip.
Yes — with one important planning step. The National Park Service specifically cautions that vehicles over 22 feet are not recommended on Generals Highway between the Foothills Visitor Center and the Giant Forest area, due to sharp switchbacks and limited clearance. The Moro Rock / Crescent Meadow Road is closed year-round to vehicles over 22 feet. A full-size 40- to 56-passenger motorcoach will not navigate those sections safely.
The standard plan for charter groups: the full-size bus travels CA-99 N to CA-198 E and enters at the Ash Mountain entrance (approximately 75 miles from Bakersfield, about 90 minutes). Because the National Park Service restriction applies beyond the Foothills Visitor Center, a full-size bus should not be planned for the restricted upper Generals Highway route. The National Park Service identifies the Big Stump entrance via Highway 180 as the preferred alternative for longer vehicles. Confirm current shuttle and access options before the trip.
A smaller minibus under 22 feet has significantly more flexibility inside the park but should still confirm current road conditions before the trip. Confirm vehicle length requirements and seasonal shuttle schedules on the NPS Sequoia vehicle length page and the Sequoia road information before booking.
Forget trying to figure out parking at every stop — a charter bus handles drop-off, finds a spot, and picks your group back up right where you started. Bakersfield has a genuine range of destinations worth the trip: legendary music history, big-league sports, living history museums, craft breweries, and a national park 90 minutes from downtown. Here are the venues your group will love getting to by bus.

Dignity Health Arena (1001 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301) is Bakersfield's premier indoor event venue — an arena that hosts Bakersfield Condors AHL hockey, major touring concerts, and family shows year-round. The venue's official information identifies the complex as the Dignity Health Arena, Theater and Convention Center, owned by the City of Bakersfield. Attached to the Dignity Health Theater and Convention Center, the Truxtun Ave complex is Kern County's biggest entertainment hub.
Charter bus drop-off is on Truxtun Avenue in the designated commercial loading zone at the main entrance. Oversized vehicle parking is available in the adjacent surface lots accessed from Truxtun Ave or Q Street — coordinate the specific lot assignment with arena guest services before your event, as lot usage shifts between arena shows and convention center events. For major Condors playoff games and sold-out concerts, coordinate bus arrival windows well in advance. Confirm current parking access on the arena's parking page.

There is no more Bakersfield experience than a night at Buck Owens' Crystal Palace (2800 Buck Owens Blvd, Bakersfield, CA 93308). Built as a living tribute to the late country legend and architect of the "Bakersfield Sound," the Crystal Palace combines a world-class honky-tonk restaurant, a museum of Buck Owens memorabilia, and live music on Friday and Saturday nights that draws fans from across the region. The rotating cast of performers keeps the authentic Bakersfield country tradition alive on a stage that feels historic the moment you walk in.
The Crystal Palace sits right on Buck Owens Boulevard near the CA-99 corridor, with a large on-site surface parking lot that easily accommodates charter buses. The bus drops the group at the main entrance and parks in the outer lot — no special permits, no advance coordination required for general visits. Groups of 20 or more should call ahead for seating arrangements at (661) 328-7560. Confirm event schedules and group dining availability on the Crystal Palace website before your date.

One of California's largest outdoor history museums, the Kern County Museum (3801 Chester Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301) sprawls across 16 acres in central Bakersfield, with more than 50 historic structures preserved and interpreted across its Pioneer Village. From a Victorian farmhouse to a 1910 oil derrick to a restored adobe, the museum tells the full arc of Kern County history in a living, walkable environment. Rotating indoor galleries and interactive exhibits round out the experience for school groups and general visitors alike.
The museum's main entrance is on Chester Avenue. Confirm current bus drop-off, parking, and school-group arrangements with the museum before your visit. School and large group tours should call ahead to pre-book at (661) 437-3300. Confirm current hours, admission, and group logistics on the official museum website before your trip.

Temblor Brewing Company (3200 Buck Owens Blvd, Bakersfield, CA 93308) is one of Kern County's most recognized craft breweries — a large taproom with an outdoor patio, a rotating tap list of award-winning beers, and the relaxed energy of a Central Valley craft beer institution. Whether your group is putting together a Bakersfield brewery crawl or using Temblor as the anchor stop on a longer tour, confirm current group arrangements with the Buck Owens Blvd taproom before arrival.
Bus parking at the Buck Owens Blvd location uses the outer section of the shared surface lot adjacent to the taproom — no advance bus reservation required, but call ahead for large groups at (661) 322-5444 to confirm patio availability and group seating. No designated bus zone is marked on-site — coordinate drop-off and staging with the taproom before arrival. Confirm current hours and events on the Temblor Brewing website.

Bakersfield's own wildlife park and botanical garden, the California Living Museum (CALM) (10500 Alfred Harrell Hwy, Bakersfield, CA 93306, phone: 661-872-2256) is a 14-acre sanctuary dedicated exclusively to California native wildlife and plants. Mountain lions, black bears, golden eagles, tule elk, and native reptiles all have permanent habitats at CALM — along with a working solar array, a botanical garden, and seasonal educational exhibits designed for school groups and families. It's one of the most used field trip destinations in Kern County.
CALM sits on Alfred Harrell Highway in northeast Bakersfield near Hart Park. School and group visits should be arranged in advance through CALM to confirm current bus parking and timed-entry logistics. Confirm current pricing, hours, and group details on CALM's official website before your trip.

The world's largest trees by volume — including the General Sherman Tree, the single largest living tree on Earth — are roughly 90 minutes northeast of Bakersfield via CA-99 N and CA-198 E. Sequoia National Park (Ash Mountain entrance: 47050 Generals Hwy, Three Rivers, CA 93271, park information: 559-565-3341) draws groups from across Central California for day trips that feel a world away from the valley floor.
The key planning fact: Generals Highway has current length advisories and restrictions for longer vehicles, and the Moro Rock / Crescent Meadow Road has separate vehicle limits. The NPS guidance says vehicles longer than 22 feet are not advised on the upper Generals Highway sections and that a single vehicle longer than 40 feet is prohibited on the Potwisha-to-Giant-Forest-Museum section. A full-size 56-passenger motorcoach should plan around the restricted upper route and confirm the current visitor-center, shuttle, and group-access options before booking. A smaller minibus under 22 feet has more flexibility inside the park. Confirm current vehicle restrictions and shuttle schedules at the NPS vehicle length page and Sequoia road information before booking.
