Field Trips to Raleigh's Museums Are Easy With a Bus From Apex
Why worry about parking a caravan of parent cars on Jones Street when one bus handles it all? Raleigh's museum district is one of the most popular field trip destinations for Apex and Wake County schools, and it's only 20 to 25 minutes east on US-64 and I-440. The North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences (11 W Jones St, Raleigh, NC 27601) — the largest natural history museum in the Southeast — sits in the heart of downtown Raleigh, with bus drop-off along Jones Street. (Note: the nearby North Carolina Museum of History building is temporarily closed for a multi-year renovation, so it's off the itinerary for now — check its website for reopening updates.)
