More About 28 Passenger Minibuses
The 28-passenger minibus hits a sweet spot that a 15-passenger van can't reach and a 56-passenger motorcoach would overdo. In Irvine, that distinction matters. These buses are compact enough to navigate the parking structures along Jamboree Road, pull cleanly into hotel loading zones on MacArthur Boulevard, and handle the tight turns around the UCI campus near Pereira Drive — without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a full-size coach.
Examples in the network include the Glaval Universal, Starcraft Starlite, and Turtle Top Terra Transit. Depending on the model, you may find a center aisle, standing-height roof clearance, and a climate-controlled cabin where nobody's sitting on a lap. Why limit yourself to one fleet?

What’s Typically Included on 28 Passenger Minibus Rentals
The 28-passenger minibuses available through the network can come loaded with TONS of great features your group actually wants on an Irvine trip! Many models include air conditioning and climate control — critical when a June afternoon in the Irvine Business Complex turns hot and your group is boarding after a full conference day. Seats may be high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with additional legroom so nobody arrives stiff after a long ride down I-5 toward San Diego.
Overhead compartments may handle carry-ons and day bags, while a rear luggage area can fit roller bags and duffels for groups with more gear. Depending on the vehicle, 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. WiFi may be available on some models — great for the team that wants to stay productive on the ride from Irvine to a South Bay campus.
Onboard restrooms are available on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with rear or side wheelchair lifts may be available on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote!
