Wi-Fi
Stay connected on the road with free WiFi available on all of our 18-passenger minibuses. Your passengers can check email, stream music, or post updates to social media while commuting to work in downtown San Jose, heading to a Sharks game at SAP Center, or traveling between campuses in Silicon Valley.

Onboard Restrooms
While most 18-passenger minibuses do not come equipped with onboard restrooms, we do have a few models in our fleet that offer this amenity. If your group requires a restroom for longer trips—such as a day trip to Santa Cruz or a wine tour in Napa Valley—please request this feature when you make your reservation. Otherwise, your minibus will make regular stops at rest areas and convenience stores along the route.
Onboard TVs
Keep your group entertained with flat-screen TVs and DVD players on every 18-passenger minibus. You can screen training videos for employees, play movies for kids on a school field trip, or watch highlights of the latest 49ers game while stuck in traffic on Highway 101. Some models also feature HDMI inputs for connecting laptops or gaming consoles.
Power Outlets
Never worry about running out of battery during your trip—our minibuses are equipped with multiple power outlets and USB ports throughout the cabin. Passengers can charge phones, tablets, or laptops while en route to meetings in Palo Alto, concerts at Shoreline Amphitheatre, or sightseeing tours of downtown San Jose. Stay powered up and productive from start to finish.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Beat the Bay Area heat with advanced climate control systems that keep the cabin cool and comfortable year-round. Each row of seats has its own adjustable air vent, so riders can customize airflow to their liking. Whether you’re traveling in August or January, your minibus will maintain a pleasant temperature for everyone on board.
Leather Seating
Ride in style with plush leather seats that offer both comfort and sophistication. The high-back design provides excellent support for longer journeys, while the soft upholstery adds a touch of luxury to any occasion. Perfect for executive shuttles, bridal parties, or anyone who appreciates a premium travel experience.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Store your belongings safely and conveniently with ample storage options on every minibus. Overhead racks are ideal for backpacks, purses, and small carry-ons, while larger items like suitcases or sports equipment can be stowed in the rear cargo area.
