How much does an 18 Passenger Minibus cost?
With Santamonicacharterbus.com, you get instant 18 passenger minibus pricing in Santa Monica in under 30 seconds, no phone tag, no waiting on callbacks. Santa Monica minibus rental rates are listed at $190 – $330+ per hour, $1,210 – $1,990+ per day, and $5.00 – $7.25+ per mile, depending on your date, route, and the specific vehicle you choose.
