35 Passenger Minibus Rental

A 35-passenger minibus is the sweet spot for groups that have outgrown a Sprinter van but don't need a full 56-passenger motorcoach.

And with Busrentalsantabarbara.com, you're not calling five companies hoping someone picks up!

What’s Typically Included on 35 Passenger Minibus Rentals

For starters, every model comes with air conditioning and climate control — essential when summer fog burns off and the temperature climbs along the coast. Seats are high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with extra legroom so nobody arrives stiff after a longer ride up the 101 toward San Luis Obispo or down toward Ventura. Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags, and a rear luggage area fits roller bags and duffels for groups with more gear.

You'll 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 the entire way. WiFi is available on many models, onboard restrooms on select builds, and ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts are available on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote!

How much does a 35 Passenger Minibus cost to rent?

Book with confidence — 35-passenger minibus rentals in Santa Barbara cost $225–$370+ per hour, $1,815–$2,415+ per day, and $6.20–$8.95+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday wine tour looping through Los Olivos and Solvang will price differently than a Tuesday airport transfer to Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) at 601 Firestone Road — and peak weekends during the Santa Barbara Old Spanish Days Fiesta in early August or the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in February mean higher demand across the whole Central Coast.
