15 Passenger Minibus

Our 15-passenger minibuses are available in a variety of exterior colors to suit any occasion, including black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and yellow. Need something special? We can also provide custom wraps with your company logo, school colors, or event branding. Just let us know what you need when you request a quote, and we’ll make it happen.

Standard amenities on our 15-passenger minibus include high-back reclining seats, front and rear air conditioning, overhead reading lights, a powerful sound system with Bluetooth/AUX input, and either cloth or vinyl upholstery. Each row has USB charging ports, and there’s an optional PA microphone for group announcements. Tinted windows provide privacy and help keep the cabin cool. There’s space behind the last row for luggage, coolers, or equipment cases, and some models have overhead parcel racks. Additional options include Wi-Fi, a flat-screen monitor, and leatherette seating upgrades.

A 15-passenger minibus rental typically costs between $150 and $430+ per hour, $1,520 to $3,255 per day, or $4.00 to $7.95 per mile. The final price depends on several factors: the length of your trip, total mileage, number of days/hours, pickup location, time of year, and any special requests like custom branding or upgraded amenities. You’ll get a single all-inclusive quote that covers the vehicle, driver, fuel, insurance, and gratuity. Additional expenses may include tolls, parking fees, or driver lodging on overnight trips. For the most accurate pricing, call our team with your exact itinerary—we’ll get you a fast, custom quote in less than 30 seconds.

The 15-passenger minibus is one of the smallest and most maneuverable vehicles in our fleet, making it ideal for tight city streets, narrow rural roads, and short-distance shuttles. It seats slightly more people than a standard van or sprinter but is much easier to drive and park than a larger charter bus. If you need something bigger, we offer minibuses that seat 18, 20, 25, 28, 30, or even 35 passengers, as well as full-size charter buses that hold up to 56. Smaller groups can save money by choosing this compact option, while larger groups will appreciate the additional capacity and amenities of our bigger vehicles.

We recommend booking your 15-passenger minibus at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if you’re traveling during a busy season or around major local events like the Lompoc Flower Festival, Santa Barbara Old Spanish Days, or UCSB graduation. Spring and summer are peak times for weddings, wine tours, and school trips, so availability can be limited if you wait too long. If you need a bus for a last-minute trip, give us a call anyway—we’ll do our best to find something that fits your schedule. The earlier you book, the better your chances of getting the exact vehicle and amenities you want.

A 15-passenger minibus can comfortably hold one carry-on-sized bag per passenger in the rear cargo area or under the seats. Larger items like suitcases, duffel bags, or equipment cases can be stored behind the last row of seats or in an optional exterior storage compartment. Overhead parcel racks are available on some models for smaller items like backpacks, jackets, or briefcases. If your group has a lot of luggage or bulky items, let us know when you request a quote—we’ll make sure you get a vehicle with enough storage space for everything.
