Santa Ana on a Charter Bus

Visit the Heart of the OC in Comfort, Luxury and Safety

Looking to take a group somewhere in Southern California, but want a unique vibe? Someplace with a vibrant cultural scene, but without the frenetic pace of L.A., San Diego and some of the other municipalities? You'll love Santa Ana, with it eclectic array of galleries, restaurants, boutiques, sidewalk cafes and other attractions.

Make it easy on everyone, though, with a charter bus rental from US Coachways. You can relax with friends and family while we handle all the details.

A Charter Bus—The Smart Way to Visit Santa Ana

Taking a group to Southern California? There's no better mode of transportation than a charter bus—here's why:

They're dependable — With other modes of transportation, delays and cancellations are pretty common. Look at air travel, where about 40% of passengers arrive late somewhere every day. That doesn't happen with a charter bus. Your driver has the tools and technology to anticipate slowdowns and find alternate routes. It's also relatively easy for us to find a replacement coach.
You can plan the trip you want — There's no other mode of travel that gives you as much control as a charter bus rental. You decide when and where you'll depart, where you'll go, when you'll stop, how long you'll stay and when you'll return. Last-minute and real-time changes to your schedule are usually not a problem, either.
It's the most hassle - free way to travel—You won't have to get behind the wheel, look at the GPS, check the time or try to find a place to park. There's no TSA security checkpoint, so you won't need to stand in line, remove your shoes, empty your pockets or submit to a body scan. You'll ride on the same bus throughout your trip and your luggage will be on board—no missed connections or lost bags. You won't have to turn your phone off or put it on "bus mode" either. You can stay connected at all times.
You'll feel safe and secure — You'll have a highly trained professional driving the bus. In addition, because of the limited access to the coach, you won't have to worry about unwanted guests. You and your personal items will be safe and secure.
You'll ride in comfort — You'll enjoy the high-back bucket seats and more leg room than you'll find on any other mode of travel. There's no middle seat, either. The aisles are wide and you are free to move about at your convenience.
It's more than just a way to get there and back — Your bus is ideally suited for group meetings, whether you're motivating the team on the way to the game, rehearsing a song with the choir or prepping employees for a big meeting. You can also use the coach to get some quiet time during a busy trip.
A charter bus gives you more travel for your money — Because you share the costs of transportation, charter bus rentals are consistently one of the most affordable ways to take a group anywhere
You'll have less risk of getting stuck in traffic — A charter bus lets you take advantage of the high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes
It's environmentally conscious — When you share the ride on a charter bus, you take a number of private vehicles off the roads. That can reduce carbon emissions, helping the planet.

See the Sights in Santa Ana

The largest city in Orange County (famously referred to as "the OC"), Santa Ana offers the range of options you'd expect in a big city in a easy-going atmosphere. Home to the Cal State Fullerton campus, it boasts a rich cultural community:

Visit the Cal State Fullerton Grand Central Art Center, where dance studios, art galleries, live-work spaces for artists in residence and the Grand Central Theatre take up an entire city block.
Check out the city's Artists Village, a ten block conglomerate of galleries, shops and studios adjacent to the Grand Central Art Center, or visit the many galleries near the Second Street Promenade.
Spend a day at the Bowers Museum—this 1930s era Spanish style complex has more than 120,000 works of art in its collection, including an extensive display of wooden masks from Africa.
See works from local artists at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art (the OCCCA), in the Artist Village neighborhood.
Catch a concert at the Yost Theater, in the city's historic East End, where you'll find numerous well-restored Queen Anne Victorian buildings.

Though the influence is predominantly Latino in Santa Ana, there's an amazing diversity to the cuisine here. Great Food Truck Race winner Jason Quinn owns a restaurant here and periodically hosts special meals. There are countless small eateries, offering everything from tapas to tacos, vegan and vegetarian fare. You'll find Egyptian, Malaysian, Argentinean, Sri Lankan, Peruvian and Filipino food here, too. Check out the 4th Street Market, a "food incubator" where more than 20 budding restaurant owners are working on their dreams.

If air travel interests you, you'll love the Lyon Air Museum, one of the best of its kind in the nation. There's a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress in the museum's military aircraft collection, as well as a Douglas C-47 Skytrain and a Cessna O-1E Bird Dog. There's also an extensive collection of rare automobiles and motorcycles, including German, Japanese and American vehicles.

For a historical overview of Santa Ana and the surrounding communities, visit the Heritage Museum of Orange County. Nestled on 12 acres among citrus groves and flower gardens, the Center includes some historic buildings from the region, as well as other displays that preserve and pay tribute to local history.
