More About 28 Passenger Minibuses
A 28 passenger minibus sits in a genuinely useful middle ground for Santa Monica group travel. It's larger than the 15-passenger vans that leave half your group scrambling for a second ride, and far more maneuverable than a full motorcoach trying to negotiate the tight turn onto Main Street or the loading zones outside Santa Monica Place (395 Santa Monica Place, Santa Monica, CA 90401). Whether your group is shuttling between hotel pickups along Ocean Avenue, heading inland on the I-10 to a corporate event in Century City, or staging a multi-stop beach day from Venice Beach up through Malibu on the Pacific Coast Highway, the 28-passenger configuration can keep everyone on one vehicle and on one itinerary.
Because this website connects you to a network of independently owned operators rather than a single fleet, you're comparing vehicles that may be available for your specific date — not whatever one company happens to have left unbooked. You set the pickup point. You set the stops.
You can compare ride options!

Common Amenities Available on Santa Monica 28 Passenger Minibus Rentals
Heading to a sunset cruise departure at Santa Monica Pier (200 Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica, CA 90401) or shuttling a corporate group to a beachside offsite? The 28 passenger minibuses available through this network typically come loaded with reclining seats, overhead storage compartments, climate control, onboard WiFi, and individual power outlets — so your group can travel more comfortably instead of crammed. Amenities do vary by operator and vehicle, so confirming the specific features on your chosen bus before you proceed is always a smart move.
Need a little more room for gear — surfboards for a Malibu day trip, luggage for an LAX connection, or equipment for a production group heading to the beach? Many 28-passenger minibuses in the network also include undercarriage storage bays, which makes the PCH run to Point Dume or the inland haul on the I-405 a lot more comfortable for everyone on board. Compare amenities side by side right on the results page — no account needed, and no waiting on a callback.

How much does a 28 Passenger Minibus cost in Santa Monica?
Santa Monica 28 passenger minibus rental prices typically run $190–$355+ per hour, $1,540–$2,255+ per day, and $5.65–$8.25+ per mile depending on the date, the route, and the amenities on board. A Saturday night run from hotel pickups on Ocean Avenue to a private event in Brentwood is going to price differently than a midweek corporate shuttle between Santa Monica and El Segundo — and that's exactly why comparing across a network of operators matters instead of taking the first quote you find. Enter your trip details once on this website and see pricing from multiple companies serving Santa Monica.
