28 Passenger Minibus

We offer 28-passenger minibuses in a variety of colors including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. Custom wraps are also available if you want to display company logos, school colors, or event branding. The most common choices are black and white, which present a clean, professional appearance suitable for any occasion. If you have a specific color preference or need multiple buses to match, let us know—we’ll do our best to accommodate your request. Custom paint and wrap options may require additional lead time and cost.

Standard amenities on the 28-passenger minibus include high-back reclining seats with armrests and headrests, individual LED reading lights, powerful dual-zone HVAC, and tinted panoramic windows. Overhead parcel racks run the length of the cabin for stowing backpacks and small bags, while each row features dual USB charging ports for phones and tablets. The audio system includes AM/FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, and a PA microphone for announcements. Additional features include a flat aisle floor for easy movement, wide entry door with electric steps, and full insulation for quiet operation. Underfloor luggage bays are available on select models for transporting larger suitcases or equipment cases.

The cost to rent a 28-passenger minibus ranges from $150 to $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. Final pricing is based on total mileage, number of days/hours required, and whether the bus needs to stay onsite between runs. Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging on multi-day itineraries. Gratuity is included in the base rate, but tips are always appreciated for exceptional service. For an exact quote tailored to your itinerary, contact us with all pickup locations, destinations, and timing details. We’ll provide a firm price upfront so you can plan your budget accordingly.

The 28-passenger minibus fills the gap between smaller shuttle vans (15–24 seats) and full-size coaches (35+ seats). It offers significantly more capacity than a 24-passenger model, making it better suited for medium-sized groups that would otherwise need two smaller vehicles. Compared to a 35- or 56-passenger bus, it is more maneuverable, less expensive to operate, and easier to park in tight urban settings. While it doesn’t have onboard restrooms or as much luggage space as a full-size coach, it provides ample comfort for trips up to several hours in length. This size is ideal for situations where headcount exceeds what a Sprinter or mini-coach can handle but doesn’t justify the expense of a double-decker or 45-foot motorcoach.

We recommend booking your 28-passenger minibus at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak season or coincides with major events. In the DMV area, spring and fall are extremely busy due to wedding season, school field trips, and corporate conferences. Large public events like the Marine Corps Marathon, Cherry Blossom Festival, and holiday parades can also impact availability and pricing. The earlier you reserve, the better your chances of securing the exact vehicle you want at the best possible rate. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have open inventory, but selection may be limited and prices higher. Once you have confirmed dates and headcount, it’s wise to lock in your reservation right away.

A 28-passenger minibus can accommodate luggage for all passengers, though the exact capacity depends on the configuration. Most models feature large underfloor storage bays capable of holding one full-size suitcase per person, plus additional space for duffel bags or equipment cases. Overhead parcel racks inside the cabin provide room for backpacks, briefcases, and smaller personal items. If your group is traveling light, this setup works well for overnight trips or airport transfers. For excursions requiring extra gear—such as sports tournaments or band performances—please specify your needs when booking so we can assign a bus with maximum storage capacity. In cases where luggage exceeds available space, a separate support vehicle may be necessary.
