30 Passenger Minibus

Our 30-passenger minibuses are available in a wide range of standard and custom colors to match any event or branding requirement. Choose from classic options like black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and yellow—ideal for everything from corporate shuttles and wedding parties to school and athletic transportation. Need something more specific? We also offer custom vinyl wraps in any color or design, including full-color graphics and logo placements, so you can create a vehicle that perfectly represents your organization or special event. Just let us know what you need when requesting your quote, and we’ll make sure you get a minibus that fits your exact specifications.

Every 30-passenger minibus comes standard with high-back, forward-facing seats upholstered in durable cloth or optional leatherette/vinyl, powerful front and rear air conditioning, and either rear luggage storage or underfloor baggage bays depending on the model. Passengers can stay connected with onboard Wi-Fi, flat-screen monitors with DVD/Blu-ray/HDMI inputs, and Bluetooth-capable sound systems integrated into ceiling-mounted speakers. Additional amenities include 110V/USB power outlets at every row, overhead parcel racks, a PA microphone for announcements, and LED accent lighting throughout the cabin. Upgrades like wood-look vinyl flooring, color-changing ceiling lights, and custom exterior branding are also available to ensure your minibus meets the exact needs of your group.

A 30-passenger minibus rental typically costs $150–$450+ per hour, $1,610–$3,465 per day, or $4.00–$9.95 per mile. Final pricing depends on several factors: the length of your trip (hourly vs. daily vs. mileage rates), the time of year (busy seasons like spring and fall break can increase rates), how far the bus has to travel empty to reach your pickup location (deadhead mileage), and any additional services such as tolls, parking fees, or driver lodging for overnight trips. Larger groups may also incur higher costs if multiple vehicles are needed. To get an exact quote tailored to your specific itinerary, contact our team with details about your pickup and drop-off locations, travel dates, and group size.

The 30-passenger minibus is a versatile mid-size option that bridges the gap between smaller executive minibuses (15–28 seats) and full-size motorcoaches (up to 56 seats). It offers more seating capacity than compact shuttles while remaining easier to maneuver and park in urban or suburban settings compared to larger coaches. Unlike full-size charter buses, which may include onboard restrooms and multiple video monitors, the 30-passenger minibus focuses on short- to medium-distance routes with amenities like forward-facing seats, powerful HVAC, Wi-Fi, and rear luggage storage. This makes it ideal for corporate shuttles, airport transfers, wedding parties, and school outings where groups need to travel together comfortably without the bulk of a larger vehicle.

We recommend booking your 30-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best rates. This is especially important during peak travel seasons—such as spring and fall when schools and colleges are in session, summer vacation months, and around major holidays—when demand for charter buses and minibuses is at its highest. Large events like SXSW, ACL Fest, and UT football games in nearby Austin can also cause a spike in bookings, making it even more critical to reserve early. If you’re planning a trip during one of these busy periods, consider booking six months or more ahead of time. Last-minute rentals are possible, but selection may be limited, and prices could be higher due to increased demand.

A 30-passenger minibus can typically accommodate one large checked bag per passenger in the rear luggage compartment, plus a small carry-on item stored either under the seat or in an overhead parcel rack. The exact luggage capacity varies by minibus model and interior configuration—some have larger rear cargo areas or additional underfloor storage bays that can fit oversized items like sports equipment, musical instruments, or presentation materials. If your group is traveling with extra baggage or bulky items, please let us know in advance so we can assign a vehicle with sufficient storage space. For trips requiring more luggage room, we can arrange a minibus with expanded storage options or recommend upgrading to a larger vehicle.
