Birmingham School Field Trip Bus Rentals

With so many world-class museums and cultural institutions clustered in and around downtown Birmingham, the hardest part of planning a field trip here is choosing which destination to visit first, not figuring out how to get there. Buses heading to the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute park free behind the building, entered from 15th Street North, and the Institute admits groups in waves of up to 50 guests about every 15 minutes. A class that rides in together on one bus steps into its entry wave as a group, with nobody still hunting for a parking space.

Fifth Avenue runs in front of Kelly Ingram Park and the A.G. Gaston Motel, both part of the Birmingham Civil Rights National Monument, which makes them a natural add-on for a class already riding together. McWane Science Center packs four floors of hands-on exhibits and an IMAX Dome Theatre, and every area is reachable by ramps or elevators, so students who use wheelchairs stay with the class all day. McWane's school-year hours run Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm (September to May), which leaves room for a morning bus arrival and a full day of exhibits before pickup.

At the Birmingham Museum of Art, buses unload out front on Rev. Abraham Woods, Jr. Boulevard, across from Linn Park, and bus parking is in front of the Museum and along City Walk on 9th Avenue North between 19th and 16th Streets North. Birmingham Museum of Art tours must be booked at least two weeks in advance, and groups over 15 must register.

Birmingham field trip bus rentals keep every student together from pickup to drop-off, so no one gets lost in a rideshare shuffle on the way to one of the city's most important educational landmarks.

Booking a history-focused field trip in Birmingham means giving students access to some of the most significant civil rights landmarks in the entire country, and Charterbusrentalbirmingham.com makes finding the bus the easy part. Planning a stop at 16th Street Baptist Church (16th Street and 6th Avenue North, Birmingham, AL)? Tours run Tuesday through Saturday, with the first at 10:00 am and the last starting at 3:00 pm, groups of 40 or more must arrange their tour by voice message at 205-251-9402, and the church asks visitors to plan at least an hour.

Because everyone rides in on the same bus, the whole group is there when the tour begins. At Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark (20 32nd Street North, Birmingham, AL), a self-guided tour is free and the site is open 10:00 to 4:00 Tuesday through Saturday, while larger groups can schedule a guided tour through tyler@slossfurnaces.org. The Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame (1701B 4th Ave N, Birmingham, AL 35203), housed in the historic Carver Theatre, rounds out a music-and-history day with one more stop on the same bus.

For longer itineraries that include multiple downtown stops, a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach gives your group the flexibility to move between sites efficiently while keeping all students together under one roof, or one bus, rather!

Samford University (800 Lakeshore Drive, Birmingham, AL 35229) schedules campus visits at 205-726-3673, and Samford's admission visitor parking is at the Office of Admission, directly behind the Main Gate in front of Ingalls Hall on Sherman Circle (reached from Lakeshore Drive).
