18 Passenger Minibus

Our 18-passenger minibuses are available in multiple exterior colors—including black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and yellow—so you can choose the look that best fits your group or event. Need something special? We also offer custom wraps and graphics packages, perfect for corporate branding, school spirit, or personalized wedding designs. Just let us know what you need when you request a quote, and we’ll make sure your minibus looks exactly the way you want it.

Every 18-passenger minibus comes standard with high-back reclining seats (cloth or vinyl/leatherette upholstery), individual reading lights, and powerful front/rear HVAC for consistent temperature control. There’s either a rear luggage compartment or underfloor storage bays for baggage, plus overhead parcel racks along both sides of the aisle. Stay connected with onboard Wi-Fi (4G/5G), USB charging ports at every seat, and optional 110V outlets for laptops or other devices. The integrated PA system includes a wireless microphone for announcements, and you can add up to two flat-screen monitors (front/mid-cabin) for video playback or digital signage. Additional features include Bluetooth-enabled sound system, tinted windows, hardwood-look vinyl flooring, and optional custom branding or wrap packages for corporate/event shuttles.

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 exact model, trip duration, and distance traveled. Final pricing is influenced by the time of year (peak seasons like summer and holidays may carry higher rates), pickup location relative to major metropolitan areas, and any additional services such as tolls, parking fees, or driver accommodations for overnight trips. Your quote will include the vehicle, driver, fuel, and standard gratuity, with optional add-ons like custom wraps or upgraded amenities available upon request. For the most accurate and up-to-date pricing, contact our team directly with your trip details to receive a personalized estimate.

The 18-passenger minibus is larger than our smallest sprinter-style minibuses (which seat 15–16), offering more headroom, wider aisles, and better storage options while remaining compact enough for city streets and tight venues. Compared to larger minibuses (20–35 seats) or full-size charter buses (up to 56), it’s more affordable, easier to maneuver, and ideal for midsize groups who still want amenities like Wi-Fi, reclining seats, and luggage compartments. If you need something smaller for airport shuttles or executive travel, consider our 15-passenger minibus; if you’re moving a bigger group—like a sports team or corporate outing—one of our larger minibuses or a 56-passenger charter bus will provide additional seating and storage. No matter which size you choose, you’ll get a comfortable, modern vehicle backed by 24/7 support from our experienced team.

We recommend booking your 18-passenger minibus at least 3–6 months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing—especially if your trip falls during peak travel times like spring break, summer vacation, or the winter holiday season. In the Seattle–Tacoma region, local events such as Seahawks, Mariners, and Sounders games, UW and WSU football, major concerts, conventions, and cruise departures can quickly fill up inventory and drive prices higher. If you’re traveling during a busy period or need multiple vehicles, it’s wise to reserve your minibus even earlier. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be subject to limited availability and higher rates. Once you have your trip dates and basic itinerary, contact our team to get a fast quote and lock in your reservation.

An 18-passenger minibus typically holds one standard suitcase and one carry-on bag per passenger, thanks to rear luggage compartments, underfloor storage bays, and overhead parcel racks inside the cabin. Larger items like sports equipment, musical instruments, or presentation materials can be accommodated by utilizing underfloor storage or securing them in the rear cargo area. If your group has additional baggage beyond the standard allotment, our team can arrange for extra storage space or recommend a larger vehicle to ensure everything fits comfortably. Just let us know your luggage requirements when booking, and we’ll make sure your minibus has the capacity you need.
