An 18-passenger minibus is a compact yet comfortable shuttle bus that’s ideal for mid-size groups traveling in Santee, San Diego, and throughout Southern California. You get the same basic body style as a full-size bus, just scaled down to fit your group size and budget. Our minibuses are perfect for airport transfers at San Diego International Airport, business shuttles between offices in Mission Valley or Kearny Mesa, or small-group day trips to Del Mar, La Jolla, or downtown San Diego. The smaller footprint means your minibus can easily navigate local streets and tight parking lots—making it a great choice for brewery tours, weddings, and events with multiple stops.
Your 18-passenger minibus comes loaded with amenities to keep everyone happy on the road. Reclining seats with individual headrests and armrests mean each passenger can relax on the way to your destination. Overhead luggage racks provide space for backpacks and carry-ons, while undercarriage storage bays can hold larger items like golf clubs, trade show displays, or sports equipment. Stay cool with strong air conditioning, keep phones charged with individual power outlets and USB ports, and stay entertained with onboard WiFi and flat-screen monitors. Many of our minibuses also feature wood-look floors, tinted windows, and PA systems for announcements or guided tours—just tell us what you need!
Rates for an 18-passenger minibus rental from Charter Bus Rental Santee start at $145 to $404 per hour, $1,300 to $3,000 per day, or $4.00 to $7.00 per mile, depending on your trip details and seasonality. For example, a simple round-trip airport transfer within San Diego County might be at the lower end, while a full-day charter up the coast to Orange County or Los Angeles would be priced higher.
