More About The 15-35 Passenger Minibus
Sitting between a 14-passenger Sprinter limo and a 56-passenger motorcoach, the minibus fills a size category the other two cannot — seating 15 to 35 passengers in forward-facing rows with a center aisle and overhead storage compartments above every seat. At 25 to 35 feet long, most minibuses fit into hotel porticos, resort driveways, and venue drop-off circles that a full charter bus simply cannot navigate. In Carlsbad, the driveway approach at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, the group drop-off at LEGOLAND California on Legoland Drive, and the arrival loop at The Flower Fields on Paseo del Norte are all far more minibus-friendly than motorcoach-friendly.
