What’s Typically Included on 18 Passenger Minibus Rentals
Columbiacoachbuscompany.com makes it so easy to find an 18-passenger minibus loaded with the amenities your group actually wants!

Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and personal items (one bag per person), 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 to keep everyone's devices powered up, flat-screen monitors with DVD or HDMI input, a PA system with a wireless microphone for tour guides or group leaders, and Bluetooth/AUX stereo so you can run your own playlist the whole way.

How much does an 18 Passenger Minibus cost?
We help you compare 18-passenger minibus pricing from a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving Columbia — so you're never limited to one fleet or one price point! In Columbia, 18-passenger minibus rentals 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 wedding shuttle looping between a downtown Columbia hotel and a venue in Lexington will price differently than a Tuesday airport transfer to Columbia Metropolitan Airport — and high-demand dates like University of South Carolina home football Saturdays at Williams-Brice Stadium and graduation weekend in May fill up fast across the entire Columbia market, which means higher prices and fewer vehicles to choose from.
The fastest way to see numbers for your exact trip? No need to fear, 30-second online pricing is here!
