Quick and Flexible Airport Transportation in Reading
It's never been easier to get your whole group to the airport together and on time.

Reading Regional Airport (RDG) handles general aviation only and has no scheduled commercial service. Most Reading groups fly commercially through Philadelphia International Airport (PHL)—about 60 miles southeast via I-76, roughly an hour off-peak. Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE) in Allentown is closer at about 35 miles northeast via US-222, a 40–50 minute run.
Harrisburg International (MDT) is about 55 miles west. A charter bus or minibus from Reading to any of these airports keeps your whole group together and skips the airport parking bill entirely.
No—and this is one of the most important vehicle-selection facts in Berks County. The road to Reading's iconic Pagoda (98 Duryea Dr, Reading, PA 19604) is Duryea Drive, a narrow, winding mountain road that full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches cannot safely navigate. A minibus or sprinter van is the right call for a Pagoda visit.
Parking at the top is also limited, so plan your timing accordingly. Mention the Pagoda when you request your quote and the network can match you with an appropriately sized vehicle.
Yes, for both. Hawk Mountain Sanctuary is accessed by a narrow rural road where a full-size motorcoach is not the right fit—a minibus gets your group there cleanly. Yuengling Brewery sits on narrow, hilly city streets in Pottsville where a minibus is again the smarter choice over a 45-foot coach.
When you request your quote, mention your destination and the network will match you with the right vehicle size for the route.
Santander Arena is located in downtown Reading. Charter buses drop off passengers on Penn Street or on adjacent downtown streets. There is no dedicated bus lot at the venue; nearby parking garages include the Penn Street Garage at 6th and Penn and the Cherry Street Garage, though full-size coaches do not fit in parking structures.
Groups should plan for active street loading and confirm any event-specific access details with the venue directly before your visit.
Prom season in April and May is the single busiest period for bus rentals across Berks County school districts. The Reading Fightin Phils home season (April–September) and Reading Royals hockey season (October–April) drive steady demand for Santander Arena and FirstEnergy Stadium dates. Graduation season in May and June adds another wave of demand.
For any of these dates, booking three to six months out gives you the best selection and pricing.
Absolutely. Rochestercharterbuscompany.com connects you to a network of transportation companies serving Reading for local Berks County trips AND long-distance runs across Pennsylvania and beyond. Philadelphia is about 60 miles southeast via I-76—roughly an hour off-peak. Pittsburgh is about 230 miles west via I-76.
Washington D.C. is about 130 miles south. Full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches with reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays are available through the network for longer runs. Just enter your destination when you fill out the quote form.
Book three to six months out for the best selection and pricing in Reading. For prom season (April–May), graduation weekends, and Santander Arena concert dates, six months or more is the safer window—those dates fill across the entire Berks County market at once. Waiting until the last minute means higher rates and fewer vehicles to choose from.
It is strongly, strongly advised to book as early as you can so YOU can save money! Call 585-685-2181 right now to lock in your date!
Travel to Any Destination!
Get Your Group to These Reading Destinations by Bus
It's easy to explore everything Reading and Berks County have to offer when your whole group rides together! From a historic pagoda on a mountaintop to America's oldest brewery, from a Double-A ballpark to a world-class raptor sanctuary, the Reading area is packed with destinations worth the trip. Here are six great places to take your group—and what you need to know about getting there by bus!
Use the previous and next buttons, the left and right arrow keys, or swipe to browse six destinations.
FirstEnergy Stadium
FirstEnergy Stadium is home to the Reading Fightin Phils, the Double-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies. The stadium seats approximately 9,000 and draws some of the most enthusiastic minor league crowds in the country. The Fightin Phils season runs April through September.
Charter buses can drop groups at the main entrance on Centre Ave, with large surface lots adjacent to the stadium available for staging. For game-day bus parking specifics, contact the stadium directly to confirm arrangements before your visit, as assignments can vary by event.
Santander Arena & Performing Arts Center
Santander Arena is Reading's premier indoor venue—home of the Reading Royals (ECHL hockey) and host to major concerts, family shows, and touring productions. The adjacent Santander Performing Arts Center brings Broadway tours and performing arts events to downtown Reading. Both venues sit in the heart of the city.
Charter buses drop off on Penn Street; the Penn Street Garage at 6th and Penn and the Cherry Street Garage are the closest staging options, though full-size coaches use street loading rather than parking structures. Confirm event-specific access with the venue directly.
Reading Public Museum
Reading Public Museum houses art, science, and natural history collections alongside a planetarium—making it one of the most versatile field trip and group tour destinations in Berks County. The museum sits within City Park and is a perennial favorite for school groups from across the region. Charter buses and minibuses drop off at the main entrance on Museum Rd, with an adjacent surface parking lot that accommodates larger vehicles.
The museum offers group visit programming; contact the museum directly to coordinate your visit and confirm bus staging for your group size.
Pagoda (Skyline Drive Pagoda)
Reading's most iconic landmark, the Pagoda, is a Japanese-style structure perched atop Mount Penn and visible from across the entire city. Getting there requires driving Duryea Drive, a narrow, winding mountain road—and this is one of the clearest vehicle-selection facts in Berks County. Full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches cannot safely navigate Duryea Drive.
A minibus or sprinter van is the right vehicle for a Pagoda visit. Parking at the summit is limited, so plan your timing carefully. The exterior is always accessible; the interior opens select weekends.
Operated by the City of Reading; no admission fee for the grounds.
Hawk Mountain Sanctuary
Hawk Mountain Sanctuary sits about 25 miles north of Reading and is the world's first refuge for birds of prey. The sanctuary is famous for raptor migration viewing from September through November, with October being peak season for broad-winged hawks, sharp-shinned hawks, and golden eagles. It's a beloved destination for school field trips, nature groups, and birding enthusiasts.
The access road is narrow and rural—a minibus is the preferred vehicle over a full-size motorcoach. Contact the venue ahead of time to coordinate group visits. The visitor center and parking area are at the base of the mountain.
Yuengling Brewery
Yuengling Brewery is America's oldest operating brewery, founded in 1829—and one of the most popular group day trips from Reading, about 45 miles northwest via PA-61. Tours are available and draw visitors from across the region. The brewery sits on narrow, hilly city streets in Pottsville, which makes a minibus the strongly preferred vehicle over a full-size 45-foot motorcoach.
Tours operate on a first-come, first-served basis for walk-ins; groups should call the brewery directly ahead of time to confirm current tour availability. One bus keeps your group together from Reading all the way to the tasting room and back.
