A few of the companies we’ve worked with

Asian Garden Mall (Phuoc Loc Tho)

As the cultural heart of Little Saigon, the Asian Garden Mall (9200 Bolsa Ave, Westminster, CA 92683) is a mandatory stop for any Westminster tour. This two-story landmark hosts over 300 vendors and is the epicenter of the Flower Festival and the famous Summer Night Market. For group organizers, the challenge is the parking lot, which is notoriously cramped and frequently reaches capacity by 11:00 AM. We recommend using a 35-passenger minibus for easier maneuverability. Your driver will utilize the designated commercial loading zone on the north side of the building near the main entrance on Bolsa Avenue for passenger drop-off. For long-term parking, the drivers typically stage at the nearby Westminster High School overflow lots or street parking along Bushard Street to avoid the internal lot congestion. Open daily from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, though the Night Market (Friday–Sunday in summer) runs until 11:00 PM and attracts thousands, making a private shuttle essential to avoid the 45-minute wait for rideshare pickups.

Westminster Mall

Located at 1025 Westminster Mall, Westminster, CA 92683, this shopping hub serves as a primary staging area for large-scale event shuttles and regional shopping trips. With over 1.2 million square feet of space, it is a frequent pick-up point for tour groups heading to nearby Disneyland or Knott’s Berry Farm. When renting a 56-passenger full-size charter bus, we utilize the expansive parking areas near the former Sears wing or the Target entrance off Goldenwest Street. This location offers easy access to the I-405 on-ramps, allowing your group to avoid the interior residential traffic of Westminster. The mall is generally open from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM (closing at 7:00 PM on Sundays). If you are hosting a corporate event at the nearby Rose Center, we often use the mall’s perimeter parking as a "park and ride" hub, utilizing 25-passenger minibuses to run continuous loops every 15 minutes, ensuring your attendees aren't hunting for spots in the smaller venue lots.

Vietnam War Memorial (Sid Goldstein Freedom Park)

Located at 14180 All American Way, Westminster, CA 92683, this memorial is a site of deep significance, featuring statues of American and South Vietnamese soldiers. It is a frequent destination for veterans' groups and educational field trips. Because it is situated within the Civic Center complex, parking is shared with the police department and courthouse, meaning strictly enforced regulations. For school buses or 47-passenger motorcoaches, the best drop-off point is along 13th Street or the designated bus cutout on All American Way. Avoid entering the small interior library parking lot, as the turning radius is insufficient for anything larger than a 15-passenger sprinter van. The park is open from dawn until 10:00 PM. If your group is attending the annual Black April commemoration, expect heavy crowds and road closures on 13th Street; your Charter Bus Westminster coordinator will monitor local police advisories to adjust your drop-off route via Monroe Street instead.

The Rose Center

The Rose Center (14140 All American Way, Westminster, CA 92683) is the city's premier ballroom and performing arts venue, hosting everything from Vietnamese American concerts to high-end weddings. With a capacity of up to 1,200 guests, the on-site parking fills instantly. For weddings, we recommend a 20-passenger luxury limo sprinter—complete with J-style seating and climate control—to shuttle the bridal party. For larger guest lists, a 56-passenger motorcoach can drop guests off directly at the porte-cochère entrance, then proceed to the oversized vehicle parking area at the Westminster City Hall North Lot. This prevents guests from walking in their formal wear from distant street parking. The drivers are familiar with the one-way traffic flow around the Civic Center loop, ensuring that your shuttle service runs like clockwork even when overlapping with court hours or local library events.

Sigler Park and Splash Pad

For youth groups and summer camps, Sigler Park (7200 Plaza St, Westminster, CA 92683) is the go-to spot, especially during the peak splash pad season (Memorial Day through Labor Day). The park is tucked into a residential neighborhood, meaning large 56-passenger buses cannot easily navigate the narrow side streets like Olive St or Lowden St. We recommend using a school bus rental or a 35-passenger minibus for these trips. The most efficient drop-off is at the curb on Plaza Street. Note that the splash pad operates in sessions (often 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM) and can reach capacity quickly with local attendance. By booking a private shuttle, you eliminate the nightmare of trying to park five separate minivans in a lot that only holds 40 cars. Your driver can drop the kids off at the gates and wait at the nearby Westminster Community Center until your group is ready to head back.

Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve (Nearby Destination)

While technically just across the border in Huntington Beach (17142 Coast Hwy, Huntington Beach, CA 92649), this is a primary destination for Westminster-based science classes and bird-watching groups. It is a quick 15-minute drive from central Westminster via Warner Avenue. The main parking lot on PCH is extremely small and cannot accommodate full-size motorcoaches. We instruct the drivers to use the "North Lot" located at the intersection of Warner Avenue and PCH. There is a designated bus unloading zone here that allows students to safely exit directly onto the trail system. Avoid the South Lot entirely—the entrance is too narrow for a 102-inch wide coach bus. The reserve is open from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Using a charter bus with undercarriage storage allows your group to bring tripods, coolers, and field gear without cluttering the cabin aisles.

Liberty Park

Located at 13900 Monroe St, Westminster, CA 92683, Liberty Park is a hub for local youth sports, including soccer and baseball tournaments. On Saturday mornings, the Monroe Street traffic can be a crawl due to parents dropping off athletes. Our 35-passenger minibuses are the perfect solution for travel teams, providing enough room for bags and equipment in the rear luggage area while being small enough to navigate the park’s entrance. For larger events, we coordinate drop-offs at the Monroe Street curb to keep the internal parking lot clear for individual cars. The park features lighted courts and a fitness course, making it a popular spot for evening practices. If you are bringing a visiting team from out of town, we can arrange for the bus to stay on-site, providing a climate-controlled "locker room" for players to cool down between games.

Westminster Community Services & Recreation Department

The Community Services building (8200 Westminster Blvd, Westminster, CA 92683) handles the city’s senior excursions and major community classes. If your group is joining one of their regional "Day Tripper" programs but needs private transport to the starting point, we provide seamless transfers. The loading zone is located directly in front of the building on Westminster Blvd. This area is highly regulated, so the drivers stay with the vehicle at all times to ensure a quick transition. We often provide 15-passenger executive sprinters for senior groups heading to the nearby coast, featuring low step-in heights and handrails for easy boarding. Whether you are heading to a city council meeting or a community fair, the drivers know the "back way" via Jackson Street to avoid the primary traffic lights on Beach Blvd.

Frequently Asked Questions About Westminster Group Travel Transportation

What is the best way to handle parking for a charter bus in Little Saigon?

Parking in Little Saigon is notoriously tight, especially at the Asian Garden Mall. We recommend that our 56-passenger motorcoaches use the drop-off zones on Bolsa Avenue and then proceed to the Westminster Mall or designated street parking on Goldenwest Street. The drivers stay in communication via cell phone to return for pickup the moment your group is ready.

How much does a charter bus rental cost in Westminster?

Pricing varies based on the vehicle type and the length of your trip. A 15-passenger sprinter van is more cost-effective for short local transfers, while a 56-passenger coach bus is the better value for large groups. You can get an instant, personalized quote in 30-seconds by using our online pricing tool which factors in your specific Westminster itinerary.

Can your buses navigate the residential areas near Sigler Park?

For residential areas with narrower streets and low-hanging trees, we recommend our 25-passenger or 35-passenger minibuses. These vehicles have a much tighter turning radius than a full-size coach and can safely navigate streets like Plaza St and Olive St without causing traffic blockages or safety concerns.

Do you offer shuttle services for weddings at The Rose Center?

Yes, we frequently provide wedding shuttles in Westminster. We can run continuous loops between local hotels like the Best Western Palm Garden Inn and The Rose Center. Most couples prefer our 20-passenger luxury limo sprinters or white minibuses for a clean, professional aesthetic that matches their wedding theme.

What happens if we hit traffic on the 405 or 22 freeways?

The drivers monitor real-time traffic apps and have local knowledge of "cheater routes," such as using Trask Avenue or Garden Grove Blvd to bypass freeway bottlenecks. We always recommend building in a 30-minute buffer for any trip involving the 405/22 interchange, especially during the weekday evening rush from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
