Minibus Rentals Lansing, Michigan

A minibus typically seats between 15 and 35 passengers, depending on the exact make and model. Common configurations include 18, 20, 24, 28, and 30 seats. This makes minibuses ideal for medium-sized groups who don’t need a full-size charter bus but still want to travel together in a single vehicle. If you’re not sure what size you need, our team can help you choose the right option based on your headcount and itinerary.

Lansing mini bus rentals come with a range of amenities designed to keep passengers comfortable and entertained on the road. Standard features include high-back reclining seats, powerful air conditioning, overhead reading lights, and tinted windows for privacy. Many models also offer Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power outlets at each seat, flat-screen monitors with DVD/Blu-ray playback, PA systems for announcements, and Bluetooth-enabled sound systems. Larger minibuses may have rear luggage compartments or under-floor storage bays for baggage. If you need something specific, just ask!

Yes, most modern minibuses are equipped with 110V power outlets and/or USB charging ports at each row of seats. This allows passengers to plug in laptops, tablets, phones, or other electronic devices during the trip. The exact number and location of outlets can vary depending on the bus model, so be sure to specify your needs when booking.

Most standard minibuses do not have onboard restrooms due to space constraints. However, some larger models (28+ seats) may include a small lavatory at the rear of the cabin. If having a bathroom on board is important for your group, please let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request. Alternatively, we can schedule regular stops at rest areas or gas stations along your route.

It’s always a good idea to book your minibus rental as early as possible to ensure availability and secure the best rates.

No, your quote covers the mini bus, driver, fuel, and driver’s hotel (if needed). It does NOT include parking, tolls, or tip. You’ll pay those separately. For example, parking at Spartan Stadium costs $40–$60 per bus and must be paid on arrival. Tolls are rare in Michigan but common if you’re heading to Chicago or Ohio—budget $20–$50 each way. Driver gratuity (10–20%) is customarily collected upfront. You’ll get a detailed list of what’s included and what isn’t before signing the contract.

Lansing’s public transit system, CATA, offers fixed-route buses, paratransit, and downtown shuttles, but service is limited outside core areas and doesn’t run 24/7. Schedules are rigid, transfers can be inconvenient, and large groups can’t ride together. Private minibuses provide door-to-door service anywhere in Greater Lansing—including East Lansing, Okemos, Holt, and Delta Township—on your schedule. Travel together, avoid missed connections, and get home comfortably after late events. For groups of 10–40, a minibus is the easiest, fastest, and most flexible way to move around Lansing.
