More About 18 Passenger Minibuses
An 18 passenger minibus rental hits the sweet spot for mid-size groups in Santa Maria — big enough to keep everyone together, nimble enough to navigate the tight turns on Foxen Canyon Road or pull into a winery lot without the footprint of a full-size motorcoach.

You set the itinerary.
