18 Passenger Minibus

Our 18-passenger minibuses are available in a wide range of exterior colors to match your event, corporate branding, or personal preference. Standard color options include black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. If you need something unique, we also offer custom wraps and graphics to display your company logo, school colors, or special event branding. Interior color schemes can be coordinated with the exterior for a cohesive look. Just let us know what you need, and we’ll get you a minibus in the perfect color.

Standard amenities on our 18-passenger minibuses include high-back reclining seats (cloth or leatherette), powerful front/rear HVAC, overhead parcel racks, rear luggage compartment, Bluetooth sound system, flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray player, HDMI/USB-A/USB-C ports at every row, 4G/5G Wi-Fi, PA/microphone setup, LED accent lighting, vinyl/laminate flooring, and touchless hand sanitizer dispenser. Optional upgrades: forward/rear-view cameras, custom branding/wraps, upgraded upholstery, folding tray tables, and exterior storage boxes. Full-length center aisle, easy entry/exit, and ADA-accessible models available.

Rates for our 18-passenger minibuses typically range from $150 to $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, mileage, and current demand. Your quote includes the vehicle, driver, fuel, tolls, and standard onboard amenities; gratuity is included in the base rate but can be adjusted based on service. Additional charges may apply for parking fees at venues, bridge/tunnel tolls, or overnight trips requiring a driver hotel room. Pricing is subject to availability and can fluctuate based on seasonality, local events, and advance booking windows.

The 18-passenger minibus is one of the most versatile and popular vehicles in our fleet, offering a perfect balance of size, comfort, and affordability for small to mid-sized groups. Compared to larger coach buses (which can seat up to 56 passengers), the minibus is easier to maneuver on narrow city streets and requires less time for boarding and disembarking—making it ideal for short-distance shuttles, airport transfers, and event transportation. It still offers many of the same amenities as a full-size motorcoach—including reclining seats, climate control, Wi-Fi, and entertainment systems—but at a lower price point and with better fuel efficiency. Smaller groups will appreciate being able to travel together in a single vehicle rather than having to split up or pay for unused seats on a larger bus. Whether you’re organizing a corporate outing, a wedding party, a school field trip, or a sports team travel, the 18-passenger minibus provides reliable and comfortable transportation that fits your budget.

We recommend booking your 18-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance—especially if your trip falls during a busy season or coincides with major local events. In Malden and the greater Boston area, spring and fall are peak times due to school field trips, graduations, sports tournaments, and corporate events. Large events like the Boston Marathon, Head of the Charles Regatta, and college commencement weekends can also impact availability and pricing. Booking early gives you the best selection of vehicles and ensures you lock in a competitive rate before demand spikes. If you need a minibus on short notice, we’ll do our best to accommodate your request—but securing your reservation well ahead of time is the best way to guarantee availability and get exactly the vehicle you want.

Our 18-passenger minibuses offer flexible storage options to accommodate luggage, equipment, or personal belongings for your entire group. Each minibus is equipped with overhead parcel racks inside the cabin, a rear luggage compartment accessible from outside the vehicle, and optional exterior storage boxes for larger items. Typically, you can expect to fit one standard carry-on bag per passenger in the overhead compartments, plus additional suitcases or duffel bags in the rear storage area. For trips requiring extra cargo space—such as airport transfers, sports team travel, or corporate events—we can arrange a minibus with expanded storage capacity or recommend a larger vehicle to ensure everything fits comfortably. Just let us know your baggage requirements when booking, and we’ll make sure you have plenty of room for all your gear.
