Bus parking in Downtown Santa Barbara, like most city centers, can be difficult to find. Most of the public parking areas and lots in downtown cannot accommodate oversized vehicles. Instead, we recommend planning your trip itinerary so your bus can park near the Santa Barbara Zoo, where there are large public parking lots. Or, if you secure overnight accommodations for your group and driver at the Santa Barbara Inn or any other hotel in Santa Barbara, you can ask if they have onsite or offsite parking for your charter bus.
