Minibus Rental

What is a minibus?

A minibus can be described as a passenger carrying motor vehicle that has a limited seating arrangement to ensure a luxury travel experience by adding a range of amenities that are usually absent in a normal bus. It is designed in such a way that it can accommodate more people than a minivan and less than a regular-sized bus. Minibuses typically feature a front-engine step entrance.

If a minivan seems too small for your group and a bus would be quite large, then making a minibus booking is your perfect bargain. The seating capacity of the minibuses varies depending upon the type of minibus you choose. There are multiple options to choose from when it comes to booking a minibus using the redBus portal. Usually, minibuses can be booked to accommodate a group of 15 to 30 individuals, depending upon the seating capacity of the minibus that has been booked.
