30 Passenger Minibus

Our 30-passenger minibuses are available in a wide range of exterior colors, including black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We also offer custom wraps for groups that want to add branding, logos, or special graphics to their vehicle—perfect for corporate events, sports teams, or promotional tours. If you have a specific color preference or need your minibus to match a particular theme, just let us know when you request a quote. We’ll do our best to accommodate your request and make sure you get a vehicle that looks great and represents your group the way you want. Interior color options include standard upholstery in gray or tan, with upgrades available to black or custom colors upon request.

Every 30-passenger minibus rental from Charter Bus Company Laguna Niguel comes loaded with the best standard amenities in the industry, so your group stays comfortable, connected, and entertained for the entire trip. You’ll get high-back, forward-facing seats with either cloth or upgraded leatherette upholstery, powerful front and rear A/C units, and a Bluetooth-enabled sound system that lets you play music or make announcements directly from your phone. Need to keep everyone online? Our minibuses come with strong onboard Wi-Fi that supports multiple devices at once, plus USB charging ports at every seat and 110V outlets for laptops or other electronics. Flat-screen monitors are available for showing videos or presentations, and there’s plenty of storage thanks to rear luggage compartments, overhead parcel racks, and optional exterior bays for larger items. Additional features include a full PA system, color-changing LED accent lighting, hardwood-look vinyl flooring that’s easy to clean, and tinted windows for privacy and sun protection. If you need something specific—like custom branding, a particular seating layout, or extra monitors—just ask when you book. We’ll make sure your minibus has everything you need for a smooth, comfortable, and hassle-free trip from start to finish.

Renting a 30-passenger minibus in Laguna Niguel typically costs between $150 and $450+ per hour, $1,610 to $3,465 per day, or $4.00 to $9.95 per mile, depending on the specifics of your trip. The final price is influenced by several key factors: the length and duration of your trip (multi-day and long-distance trips usually cost more), the time of year (rates are higher during peak travel seasons like summer and holidays), and the exact pickup and drop-off locations (trips that start or end outside major service areas may incur additional fees). Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees at venues, and lodging for the driver on overnight trips are not included in the base rate and will be added to your final bill. While gratuity for the driver is included in your quote, you’re welcome to tip extra for exceptional service. Because pricing can vary significantly based on availability and demand, we recommend calling our office at 949-796-6450 or using our online quote tool to get a real-time, all-inclusive estimate tailored to your specific trip. This ensures you receive the most accurate and up-to-date pricing for your minibus rental.

The 30-passenger minibus is a versatile, mid-sized option that bridges the gap between smaller shuttle vehicles and full-size charter buses, making it ideal for medium-sized groups who need something compact yet spacious. Unlike larger 56-passenger motorcoaches, the minibus is easier to maneuver through city streets and tight parking lots, which is perfect for urban routes, corporate campus shuttles, or quick airport transfers. However, it still offers many of the same amenities found on bigger buses—such as reclining seats, powerful A/C, onboard Wi-Fi, flat-screen monitors, and ample storage space—so passengers don’t have to sacrifice comfort or connectivity. Compared to smaller minibuses (15, 20, or 25-passenger models), the 30-seater provides significantly more seating and storage capacity without a substantial increase in cost, making it a cost-effective choice for schools, sports teams, wedding parties, and company outings. It’s also one of the most affordable options per seat, especially for short- to mid-range trips, which is why it’s so popular among budget-conscious groups who still want a high-quality vehicle. If you need something larger, our fleet includes 40, 50, and 56-passenger coaches, but for most midsize groups, the 30-passenger minibus hits the sweet spot between size, price, and functionality.

We recommend booking your 30-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best possible rate—especially if your trip falls during a busy season or coincides with a major local event. In Laguna Niguel and the greater Orange County area, demand for charter buses spikes around spring break, summer vacation, and the winter holidays, as well as during large-scale events like graduations, weddings, corporate conferences, and regional sports tournaments. Local events such as the Laguna Niguel Holiday Parade, the Summer Concert Series at Crown Valley Park, and nearby happenings like the OC Fair in Costa Mesa or major concerts at FivePoint Amphitheatre in Irvine can also make it harder to get you a vehicle on short notice. If your trip is scheduled during one of these peak times, it’s best to reserve your minibus as early as possible—ideally six months ahead—to lock in your preferred dates and avoid last-minute price increases. For trips planned during the off-season or on weekdays, a shorter lead time may be sufficient, but keep in mind that the most popular vehicles tend to book up first. Once you have your travel dates and headcount finalized, give us a call to get an instant quote and make your reservation. A deposit is required to hold the bus, with the balance due before your departure date.

Our 30-passenger minibuses are designed to accommodate both passengers and their luggage comfortably, making them ideal for airport transfers, multi-day trips, and groups traveling with extra gear. Each minibus comes equipped with a large rear luggage compartment that can hold up to 30 standard-sized suitcases—typically allowing each passenger one large “checked” bag. Additionally, there are overhead storage racks inside the cabin for smaller carry-on items, backpacks, or personal belongings. If your group is traveling with bulky equipment such as sports gear, musical instruments, or presentation materials, please let us know in advance so we can recommend the best storage solution. Having all your luggage stored securely on board ensures quick loading and unloading at each stop, saving time and keeping the aisleways clear for safe movement throughout the trip.
