18-Passenger Minibus Rental in Santa Monica

Santa Monica Coach Bus Service has one of the largest fleets of 18-passenger minibuses in Santa Monica, Los Angeles County, and all across Southern California. These midsize vehicles are perfect for private groups who need something bigger than a sprinter van but smaller than a full-size bus—whether you’re organizing a corporate shuttle between Century City and Downtown LA, planning a wedding at Palisades Park, or moving a youth sports team to a tournament in Long Beach or Anaheim. With an 18-passenger minibus, you’ll get a comfortable, modern vehicle built by leading manufacturers like Grech Motors, Tiffany Coachworks, Executive Coach Builders, and LGE Coachworks, all backed by our 24/7 reservation team.

Each minibus comes loaded with amenities that make travel easy: free WiFi, power outlets at every seat, flat-screen TVs, Bluetooth-capable sound systems, and reclining leather seats. You’ll also have plenty of storage space for luggage, coolers, or sports equipment, plus onboard restrooms on select models. If you’re looking for a reliable, affordable, and flexible transportation solution in Santa Monica or anywhere in the Greater Los Angeles area, an 18-passenger minibus from Santa Monica Coach Bus Service is the perfect choice.
