More About 18 Passenger Minibuses
The 18-passenger minibus is a smart pick for groups that don't need a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach! In Yakima, that matters. These buses are compact enough to navigate Yakima Avenue through downtown, handle the turn onto Tieton Drive heading toward Yakima Memorial Hospital, and pull cleanly into loading zones along Front Street near the Yakima Greenway — without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a larger coach.
You'll have your pick of popular models like the Glaval Universal, Starcraft Starlite, and Turtle Top Terra Transit. Every one of them gives you a center aisle, enough roof height to walk to your seat standing up, a climate-controlled cabin, and room so nobody's sitting on a lap. Why limit yourself to one fleet?
Compare 18-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Yakima and the surrounding Yakima Valley — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

What’s Typically Included on 18 Passenger Minibus Rentals
The 18-passenger minibuses available through the network come loaded with features your group actually wants on a Yakima trip! Every model includes air conditioning and climate control — critical when August temperatures in the valley push past 95°F and the ride from downtown Yakima out to Yakima Valley Hops on N 1st Avenue gets warm fast. 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 I-82 toward the Tri-Cities.
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 way. WiFi is available on many models — great for the team staying productive on the ride from Yakima to a client site in Ellensburg.
Onboard restrooms are available on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts are available on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote!

How much does an 18 Passenger Minibus cost to rent?
18-passenger minibus rentals in Yakima cost $190–$330+ per hour, $1,210–$1,990+ per day, and $5.00–$7.25+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday winery tour looping from downtown Yakima out to Gilbert Cellars on Draper Road and back will price differently than a Tuesday airport transfer up SR-823 to Yakima Air Terminal–McAllister Field (2400 W Washington Ave, Yakima, WA 98903). A handful of dates on the Yakima calendar tighten availability across the whole valley — the Central Washington State Fair at State Fair Park (1301 S Fair Ave, Yakima, WA 98901) runs late September through early October and is one of the busiest stretches of the year, and Yakima Folklife Festival and summer festival weekends on Yakima Avenue fill fast too.
