18 Passenger Minibus

Our 18-passenger minibuses come in a variety of exterior colors, including black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and yellow, so you can choose the look that best fits your event or branding. Need something unique? We also offer custom wraps and decals to display company logos, school colors, or wedding graphics—just ask our team about custom branding options when you request a quote. The interior features durable, easy-to-clean upholstery in complementary shades that match the exterior color scheme. Whether you want a classic neutral tone or a bold color that stands out, we have a minibus option that will fit your style and make a great impression at any event.

Every 18-passenger minibus comes standard with reclining cloth or vinyl seats, strong front and rear air conditioning, overhead parcel racks, and either rear luggage space or underfloor storage compartments. Entertainment features include up to two flat-screen monitors, a Bluetooth-compatible sound system, auxiliary input, and a PA microphone for announcements. Stay connected on the road with optional Wi-Fi, USB charging ports at each row, and 110V power outlets for laptops or other devices. Additional amenities include LED interior lighting, tinted windows for privacy, and easy-access entry steps with sturdy handrails. If you need something specific—like leatherette upholstery, custom branding, or exterior color options—just ask our team when you request a quote.

Renting an 18-passenger minibus in Lenexa typically costs between $150 and $430+ per hour, $1,520–$3,255 per day, or $4.00–$7.95 per mile, depending on the length and type of your trip. Longer trips that span multiple days usually get a daily rate, while short local charters are billed hourly, and one-way out-of-town trips may be charged by the mile. Your quote includes the bus, driver, and fuel, but additional expenses like tolls, parking fees, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips are billed separately. A deposit is required to reserve your minibus, with the balance due before your trip begins. For an exact price, contact our team with your full itinerary—including all pickup and drop-off locations—and we’ll send you a detailed quote right away. Need to cancel or reschedule?

The 18-passenger minibus is a versatile, mid-sized option that bridges the gap between smaller sprinter vans and larger 20- to 35-seat minibuses or full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches. It offers more seating and onboard amenities than most van-style vehicles—making it ideal for corporate shuttles, wedding parties, or small sports teams—while still being compact enough to navigate tight city streets and access locations with limited parking. Compared to larger minibuses, the 18-passenger model is easier to maneuver, more affordable for short-distance trips, and perfect for groups that want to travel together without upgrading to a bigger (and more expensive) coach. It’s a popular choice for airport transfers, hotel shuttles, and regional outings where comfort, convenience, and value are top priorities.

We recommend booking your 18-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance—especially if you need it during peak travel times like spring and summer wedding season, back-to-school months, or major local events such as the Lenexa Spinach Festival or Great Lenexa BBQ Battle. Buses tend to sell out quickly around holidays and large regional gatherings, so reserving early gives you the best selection of vehicles and helps lock in lower rates before demand drives prices up. If you’re planning a last-minute trip, give us a call anyway—we’ll do our best to find an available minibus that fits your schedule, but keep in mind that options may be limited and pricing could be higher closer to your departure date. Securing your reservation early ensures you get the exact vehicle you want at the best possible rate.

An 18-passenger minibus typically holds one small carry-on bag per person in the overhead compartments and larger luggage can be stored in a rear cargo area or an exterior storage compartment—though space is more limited than on a full-size charter bus. If everyone brings a standard rolling suitcase, we recommend using the rear storage first and placing additional bags under seats or in the aisle as needed. For groups with bulky items like sports equipment, band instruments, or presentation materials, please mention this when booking so we can match you with a minibus that has adequate storage space. Keeping aisles clear of luggage is important, so we’ll help you plan the best way to stow all your gear before departure.
