15 Passenger Minibus

Our 15-passenger minibuses come in a variety of colors including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and even yellow. We also offer custom wraps if you want to add your company logo or specific branding for an event. The most common options are black and white because they fit any occasion—whether it’s a wedding, corporate event, or casual group trip. If you have a specific color preference, let us know when you book. We’ll do our best to match you with a vehicle that fits your style. Custom wraps are available for an additional fee and can be used for advertising or special events.

Standard amenities on a 15-passenger minibus include cushioned forward-facing seats with armrests and headrests, individual reading lights, USB charging ports, and overhead HVAC vents for climate control. The audio system features AM/FM radio, AUX input, and Bluetooth connectivity for streaming music from personal devices. There is ample interior lighting, tinted windows for privacy, and either vinyl or carpeted flooring. Additional features may include a PA system for announcements, Wi-Fi hotspot, and flat-screen monitors with DVD capability. The bus is designed to provide a comfortable and functional space for short to medium-length trips, with all the essential features needed for group travel.

The cost to rent a 15-passenger minibus in Mishawaka typically ranges from $150 to $430+ per hour, $1,520 to $3,255 per day, or $4.00 to $7.95 per mile. Your exact quote will depend on several factors including the length of your trip, the time of year, the specific route, and how many hours or days you need the vehicle. Weekend events, seasonal demand, and special requests like custom wraps or out-of-area pickups can increase the price. Each quote includes standard amenities, driver gratuity, and mileage, but does not include additional expenses such as parking fees, tolls, or overnight lodging for the driver if required. For the most accurate pricing, it’s best to call us with your full itinerary so we can provide a custom quote tailored to your exact needs. We offer some of the most competitive and transparent pricing in the industry, with no extra fees.

The 15-passenger minibus is the smallest and most agile option in our fleet, making it ideal for groups that are too large for a single SUV or sprinter van but don’t require a full-size bus. Compared to larger models like the 25-, 30-, or 35-passenger minibuses, this vehicle is easier to maneuver, less expensive to operate, and better suited for short trips or tight urban environments. It offers many of the same amenities as bigger buses—such as reclining seats, climate control, and entertainment systems—but with less overall space. If you need to transport more people, carry extra luggage, or want additional features like a restroom or expanded luggage area, you may be better served by stepping up to a larger minibus or even a full-size charter bus. The 15-passenger is perfect for quick shuttles, small events, or situations where budget and flexibility are the top priorities.

You should book your 15-passenger minibus as soon as you know your event date—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance—to ensure the best selection and pricing. Mishawaka sees high demand during peak seasons like spring wedding months, summer festival schedules, and fall sports or college events around Notre Dame and Bethel University. Last-minute reservations (less than 4 weeks out) may face limited availability or higher rates, especially if your trip overlaps with major local events such as graduation weekends, concert series at the Morris Performing Arts Center, or regional tournaments. Booking early gives you more options for vehicle color and amenities, and locks in your rate before potential price increases. If you’re planning a trip during a holiday weekend or large citywide event, securing your minibus 6 months ahead is strongly recommended.

The luggage capacity of a 15-passenger minibus is limited compared to larger buses, typically accommodating one small carry-on bag per person in the main cabin or overhead shelf. There is no dedicated rear luggage compartment, so larger suitcases and equipment must be stored either in the aisle, between seats, or in a small rear cargo area if available. For trips requiring substantial baggage—such as airport transfers with full-size luggage, musical instruments, or sports gear—storage space will be tight and may necessitate creative packing or limiting the number of bags each passenger brings. If your group has significant luggage needs, consider upgrading to a larger minibus with a rear trunk or underfloor storage, or arranging separate transportation for the excess cargo. This model is best suited for day trips, events, or shuttles where passengers only need a backpack, briefcase, or duffel bag.
