18 Passenger Minibus

Our 18-passenger minibuses are available in a wide range of standard and custom colors to match any event, branding, or personal preference. Choose from classic options like black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and even yellow for school or corporate shuttles. Need something unique? We offer custom wraps and paint jobs—including two-tone designs, metallic finishes, and full vinyl graphics—to create a vehicle that stands out on the road. Perfect for weddings, sporting events, company branding, or special occasions, our color options ensure your minibus looks exactly how you want it. Contact us with your specific color request, and we’ll make sure you get a minibus that fits your style.

Every 18-passenger minibus comes loaded with the best standard amenities in the industry to keep your group comfortable, connected, and entertained on any trip. You’ll get high-back reclining seats with optional leatherette upholstery, powerful front and rear A/C, and either Grech or Executive Coach Builders construction for a smooth, quiet ride. Stay connected with built-in Wi-Fi, USB charging ports at every row, and flat-screen monitors that can run video presentations or entertainment from any device. The integrated Bluetooth sound system delivers clear audio throughout the cabin, and there’s a full PA/microphone setup for announcements or group communication. Additional features include overhead parcel racks, rear luggage storage, custom interior lighting, and optional exterior wraps for corporate or event branding—so you get a minibus that’s functional, comfortable, and built to handle any kind of trip.

An 18-passenger minibus rental typically costs between $150 and $430+ per hour, $1,520 to $3,255 per day, or $4.00 to $7.95 per mile, depending on the specifics of your trip. Factors that affect pricing include the length of your rental, total mileage, time of year, pickup location, and any additional services or amenities requested. For example, longer trips with more mileage will generally cost more, and rates may be higher during peak travel seasons or for pickups in high-demand areas. Additional costs not included in the base rate may include parking passes at venues, tolls, and a hotel room for the driver on overnight trips. Gratuity is included in your quote, but other expenses such as venue parking fees, tolls, and driver lodging are not.

The 18-passenger minibus is a great choice for small to mid-sized groups needing something larger than a van but smaller and more affordable than a full-size charter bus. Unlike sprinter vans or shuttle vans that seat 10–15 people, this minibus offers more headroom, wider aisles, and better amenities such as reclining seats, flat-screen monitors, and onboard Wi-Fi. Compared to larger models like our 25-, 30-, or 35-passenger minibuses, the 18-seater is easier to maneuver in tight urban areas and is perfect for airport transfers, hotel shuttles, corporate events, or wedding transportation. While it doesn’t have the restroom facilities or extensive luggage space of a 56-passenger charter bus, it still provides ample storage for carry-on bags and equipment. This minibus hits the sweet spot between capacity, comfort, and cost, making it one of the most versatile options in our fleet.

We recommend booking your 18-passenger minibus at least 3–6 months in advance to ensure availability and get the best rates, especially if your trip falls during a busy season or coincides with local events. In South Florida, demand spikes around major happenings like SunFest in West Palm Beach, spring break travel, and winter holiday events. If you’re planning a wedding, corporate event, or multi-day trip, securing your vehicle early gives you more options and helps lock in current pricing before any seasonal rate increases. Last-minute bookings are possible, but choices may be limited and prices higher—so the sooner you reserve, the better.

An 18-passenger minibus offers enough storage space for each passenger to bring one carry-on–size bag plus a personal item, making it suitable for short trips, airport transfers, or multi-day outings. Larger suitcases and bulky items can be stored in a rear luggage compartment (if equipped) or in overhead racks inside the cabin. While the minibus doesn’t have the underfloor storage bays found on full-size charter buses, it can still accommodate backpacks, duffel bags, and medium-sized roller bags either behind the last row of seats or in designated storage areas. For groups with extra luggage, sporting equipment, or presentation materials, additional space can be created by leaving certain seats unoccupied or arranging items securely within the aisle. If your group requires more storage than the minibus can provide, consider upgrading to a larger vehicle or requesting a trailer attachment to handle the overflow.
