Morris Museum

If you are visiting Morristown soon and are wondering what to do there with your family, you can always charter a New Jersey bus and have the bus driver send you and your family to the Morris Museum at 6 Normandy Heights Road, Morristown and spend a day touring the museum. At Morris Museum, they have many different kinds of exhibits, some which are permanent ones while some are for a certain period of time only. Hence, even if you visit this museum this time with your family, the next time you go again in a New Jersey charter bus, chances are that you will see some “new” exhibits at the museum that you probably didn’t get to see this round.

For kids, the Morris Museum is surely a favorite place to visit during holidays because they offer many hands on and interactive displays and exhibits for the children. Being able to touch, feel and “play” with the exhibits in the museum is definitely a big hit with kids because kids just love to play and it is always a great way for them to learn too, as they play and discover the many wonderful things in the museum. We would not be too wrong if we say that the Morris Museum provides the family a place to play and learn together. There is just so much to see and so much to do in here. Model trains, historical mansion, costume exhibition, a Guinness collection of Automata (which is a collection of automatic devices and objects that make music – something like a giant music box) – these are just some of the things you can expect to see when you arrive at the Morris Museum in the New Jersey bus. In some parts of the museum, they also have exhibits on taxidermied animals, fossils, geology and the gift shop is also a great place for you to stop by to buy some souvenirs home.

They are, however, closed on Mondays, and the major holidays. Otherwise, they are open from Tuesdays right through till Sundays, from 11am to 5pm (Tuesday to Saturday) and from 12 noon to 5pm on Sunday. Also, on the second and third Thursday of every month, the admission is “Pay as You Wish” from 5pm to 8pm. You can always take advantage of the “Pay as You Wish” offer by the museum and plan your trip to the Morris Museum in the New Jersey rented bus on the second or third Thursday of the month.

Best New Jersey cities


There are really endless number of places to visit when one is in New Jersey but often times, we know nothing much about the smaller cities. In this article, we would like to highlight a couple of New Jersey’s top neighborhoods and cities which we think one should visit with or without a shuttle bus, coach charter, mini bus or party bus. The ones we would like to highlight would be Atlantic City, Jersey City and of course, Newark.
Atlantic City is naturally known as the East Coast’s version of Las Vegas. Gaming enthusiasts will easily and quickly fall in love with the sheer number of options as far as casino is concerned. Many charter bus New Jersey tourists come here specifically for the casinos and entertainment and even if you are not a fan of gaming, it is fun to just walk and stroll around enjoying the fun and exciting atmosphere. Sometimes, you feel like you are ready to be a part of all the excitement without having to play the games with others. And besides, there is plenty of activities like watersports, museums, golfing, beaches and kid-friendly activities. One of the most popular activities in Atlantic City is the Wild West themed amusement parks.
Jersey City is the second most popular tourist hotspot for New Jersey and the second most populous as well. There are benefits to being located slightly across from the lower Manhattan downtown area - tourists and easy to locate restaurants, cafes and entertainment and it has something to do with the growing population. Tourists and vacationers often find themselves falling deeply in love with new waterfront areas like Newport and Exchange Place which is located very near residential area (for a very good reason) but is growing in popularity for foreign tourists. Take a charter bus rental ride through to popular districts like The Heights or what most locals prefer to call the Jersey City Heights.
Newark, although suffering from a rather negative image in the past (known as New York’s ‘tough’ neighborhood), has come to become a popular New Jersey tourist attractions because there is an ever growing effort to turn it around. There is a major International Airport in Newark and new art galleries, entertainment outlets, parks and historically significant buildings being restored and promoted to tourists. If you have kids with you during your New Jersey charter bus rental trip here, bringing them to the mini zoo, planetarium, parks and live performances.
