28 Passenger Minibus

We offer 28-passenger minibuses in a range of exterior colors including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. If you need something special for your event or organization, we can also provide a custom wrap with your logo, branding, or any design you choose. This is popular for corporate shuttles, sports teams, and school groups who want their vehicle to stand out and look professional. Just let us know what color or wrap you need when you request a quote, and we’ll make sure you get exactly what you want. Our goal is to give you a minibus that looks great and fits the image of your group.

Our 28-passenger minibus comes standard with forward-facing high-back seats upholstered in cloth or vinyl, powerful front and rear air conditioning, and overhead parcel racks for small bags or personal items. Each row has individual reading lights and either 110V AC outlets or USB charging ports at every seat. There’s a flat-screen monitor at the front connected to a DVD player or HDMI input for video presentations. Optional amenities include onboard Wi-Fi, Bluetooth audio through the main speakers, and a rear luggage area behind the last row for larger bags or equipment cases. The wide entry door has sturdy handrails, and the non-slip vinyl or carpeted flooring makes boarding easy. Exterior colors include black, white, silver, and custom wraps.

Minibus rentals are typically charged by the hour, by the day, or by the mile, depending on the nature of your trip. Hourly rates generally range from $150–$450+, daily rates from $1,610–$3,465, and mileage rates from $4.00–$9.95 per mile. Your quote will always include the driver’s gratuity but does not cover additional expenses such as parking passes at venues (which you must purchase), tolls, or hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. Please note that the pricing above is an estimated range; actual rates may be significantly higher depending on availability and location.

The 28-passenger minibus strikes a balance between capacity and maneuverability, making it ideal for medium-sized groups that are too large for a sprinter van but don’t need a full-size charter bus. Compared to smaller minibuses (15-24 seats), it offers more seating, better storage options, and often upgraded amenities like multiple video monitors and stronger HVAC systems. Unlike a 56-passenger motorcoach, it’s easier to navigate through city streets, costs less to operate, and is perfect for short regional trips, corporate shuttles, or wedding transportation. You still get comfortable forward-facing seats, optional Wi-Fi, and luggage space—just in a more compact, budget-friendly package.

We recommend booking your 28-passenger minibus at least 3–6 months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing. In Linden and the greater New York/New Jersey area, minibuses are in high demand year-round due to corporate shuttles, airport transfers, and special events, so early reservations are essential. If you’re planning travel during peak seasons—such as spring and fall wedding months, summer vacation periods, or around major events like New York Fashion Week, the NYC Marathon, or holiday shopping trips—you should aim to book even earlier, ideally 6–12 months ahead. Last-minute bookings are possible but may result in limited vehicle selection and higher rates due to increased demand. Planning ahead gives you the best chance of securing the exact minibus you want at a competitive price.

A 28-passenger minibus typically allows each passenger to bring one large “checked” bag and one smaller carry-on item. Larger suitcases and duffel bags are stored in the rear cargo area behind the last row of seats, while smaller items like backpacks or briefcases can be placed in overhead parcel racks inside the cabin. If your group is traveling with bulky items—such as sports equipment, musical instruments, or presentation materials—please inform your reservation specialist so we can ensure adequate storage space or recommend a vehicle with additional capacity. Properly distributing luggage helps maintain comfort throughout your trip.
