More About 35 Passenger Minibuses
The 35-passenger minibus hits a sweet spot that a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach simply can't. In Santa Maria, that matters. These vehicles are compact enough to navigate the parking lot at Marian Regional Medical Center, pull cleanly into the loading zones along South Broadway, and turn through the tighter approaches near Allan Hancock College — without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a coach.
You'll find popular models like the Glaval Universal, Turtle Top Terra Transit, and Starcraft Starlite in the network. Every one of them gives your group a proper center aisle, enough overhead clearance to walk to your seat standing up, and a climate-controlled cabin so nobody arrives uncomfortable.
Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare 35-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Santa Maria and the surrounding Central Coast — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

Common 35 Passenger Minibus Amenities to Compare
The 35-passenger minibuses available through the network come loaded with features your group actually wants on a Santa Maria trip! Every model includes air conditioning and climate control — critical when the afternoon marine layer burns off and temperatures swing between Orcutt and the coast. Seats are high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with extra legroom so nobody arrives stiff after a long run down US-101 to Santa Barbara.
Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags (one bag per person), and a rear luggage area fits roller bags and duffels for groups with more gear.
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 ride. WiFi is available on many models — great for the team that wants to stay productive on the drive to a conference in San Luis Obispo. Onboard restrooms are available on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with rear or side wheelchair lifts are available on request.

What does a 35 Passenger Minibus rental cost?
35-passenger minibus rentals in Santa Maria cost $225–$370+ per hour, $1,815–$2,415+ per day, and $6.20–$8.95+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday evening shuttle looping between downtown Santa Maria and a winery on Foxen Canyon Road will price differently than a Tuesday morning transfer to Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) — and a handful of dates on the Santa Maria calendar tighten availability across the entire Central Coast fast. The Santa Maria Fairpark fills during the Santa Barbara County Fair each July, and graduation weekends at Allan Hancock College pull demand across the metro.
