More About 35 Passenger Minibuses
The 35-passenger minibus hits a sweet spot that a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach simply can't. In Santa Monica, that matters more than almost anywhere else in Los Angeles County. These vehicles are compact enough to navigate the tight turns off Lincoln Boulevard, pull cleanly into hotel loading zones along Wilshire Boulevard, and make the run down 4th Street toward the Santa Monica Pier without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a full coach.
You'll find popular models like the Glaval Titan, Starcraft Allstar, and Champion Challenger — every one of them with a center aisle, enough roof clearance to walk to your seat standing upright, and a climate-controlled cabin where nobody's sharing an armrest. Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare 35-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Santa Monica and the surrounding area — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

Common 35 Passenger Minibus Amenities to Compare
The 35-passenger minibuses available through the network come loaded with TONS of great features your group actually wants on a Santa Monica trip! Every model includes air conditioning and climate control — critical when June Gloom lifts and afternoon temperatures swing between the beachfront and the Westside hills. Seats are high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with extra legroom so nobody arrives stiff after a long crawl up the 405.
Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags (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, 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 whole way down PCH. WiFi is available on many models — great for the team that wants to stay connected on the ride from Santa Monica to a South Bay client site.
Onboard restrooms are available on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with rear or side wheelchair lifts are available on request. Just mention it when you fill out your quote!

How much is a 35 Passenger Minibus rental?
35-passenger minibus rentals in Santa Monica 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 wedding shuttle looping between a Regent Santa Monica Beach pickup and a Malibu vineyard ceremony on PCH will price differently than a Tuesday morning airport transfer down to LAX — and a handful of dates on the Santa Monica calendar have limited availability across the whole Westside, which means higher prices. The Santa Monica Pier events, the Tongva Twilight: Sounds & Cinema at Tongva Park through September 12, 2026, and LA Marathon weekend in March — when course closures shut down Ocean Avenue and San Vicente Boulevard — are the tightest dates of the year to find a vehicle.
