More About 18 Passenger Minibuses
The 18-passenger minibus hits the sweet spot between a cramped passenger van and a full-size motorcoach that feels like overkill for your group. In Long Beach, that matters. These buses are compact enough to navigate the one-way grid around Shoreline Drive, serve the Long Beach cruise terminal, and handle the tight turns near Belmont Shore on 2nd Street — without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a 56-passenger coach.
Popular models like the Starcraft Starlite and Turtle Top Terra Transit commonly offer a center aisle, enough roof height to walk to your seat standing upright, and luggage storage for group gear. Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare 18-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Long Beach and the surrounding area — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

What’s Typically Included on 18 Passenger Minibus Rentals
The 18-passenger minibuses available through the network can offer many of the features your group actually wants on a Long Beach trip! Many models include air conditioning and climate control — critical when June Gloom lifts and the temperature swings between the waterfront and the inland side of the 710. Depending on the vehicle, seats may be high-back reclining in leather or cloth, with additional legroom for the run up the 405 to LAX or down the 710 to the cruise terminal.
Overhead compartments and a rear luggage area are available on many models for carry-ons, roller bags, and duffels. Depending on the model, you may also find power outlets and USB charging ports, flat-screen monitors with DVD or HDMI input, a PA system with wireless mic for tour guides or group leaders, and Bluetooth/AUX stereo so you can run your own playlist from pickup to drop-off. WiFi is available on many models — great for the team that wants to stay productive on the ride from the Long Beach Airport to a client site in El Segundo.
Onboard restrooms are available on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with rear or side wheelchair lifts are available on request. Just mention it when you fill out your quote!

How much does an 18 Passenger Minibus cost?
18-passenger minibus rentals in Long Beach cost $190–$330+ per hour, $1,210–$1,990+ per day, and $5.00–$7.25+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday night run from Belmont Shore down to the Queen Mary for a private event will price differently than a Tuesday morning airport transfer to Long Beach Airport (LGB) — and some dates on the Long Beach calendar can have limited availability, which means higher prices. The Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach, scheduled for April 16–18, 2027, can increase demand for group transportation that weekend.
Long Beach Comic Con, scheduled for September 5–6, 2026, at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center, can do the same in early September. The fastest way to see numbers for your exact trip? Well, no need to fear, 30-second online pricing is here!
