School group buses drop off on SE Water Ave at the main OMSI entrance. OMSI's group sales team at (503) 797-4661 can confirm current bus parking and drop-off details when you book your school group reservation.

It's strongly recommended, especially for spring field trips. March through June is the busiest stretch of the year for school group transportation in the Hillsboro area, and buses fill up alongside venue slots. For popular destinations like OMSI, the Oregon Zoo, and Evergreen Aviation, book your venue reservation and your bus four to six weeks out.
The Rice Northwest Museum is smaller and fills group slots quickly too — locking in your bus at the same time keeps your whole trip on track.

For most local destinations like Jackson Bottom Wetlands or the Rice Northwest Museum, two to four weeks of lead time is workable outside of peak season. For destinations farther out — OMSI, the Oregon Zoo, Evergreen Aviation, or Bonneville Dam — and for any trip scheduled between March and June, book four to six weeks out or earlier. Spring field trip season is the single busiest stretch of the year for buses serving Washington County schools, and waiting means fewer vehicles and higher rates.
Yes — multi-stop pickup routes are available and easy to arrange. When you fill out your quote form or call 503-270-3530, list your pickup locations in the order you need them and your departure time. The results will reflect the full route.
