More About 18 Passenger Minibuses
What makes an 18 passenger minibus rental such a smart call for Austin groups is the size. It's the sweet spot between a full-size 56-passenger charter bus and a cramped SUV caravan, roomy enough for your group to actually stretch out, compact enough to navigate South Congress, the Sixth Street Entertainment District, and the tight drop-off zones around the Austin Convention Center (500 E Cesar Chavez St, Austin, TX 78701) without the headaches a full motorcoach brings downtown. The Convention Center's shuttle-bus cutouts are along Trinity Street from Cesar Chavez to 4th Street, and buses cannot be left unattended there, so your group can use a designated curbside stop before the bus moves on.
Whether you're shuttling wedding guests between the Driskill Hotel (604 Brazos St, Austin, TX 78701) and a Hill Country venue, moving a corporate team to a conference at the JW Marriott Austin (110 E 2nd St, Austin, TX 78701), or loading up a group for a bachelorette crawl through Rainey Street, an 18-passenger minibus rental gives your group one vehicle for the trip. Because Charterbusrentalaustintx.com connects you with a large network of independent bus companies, you're never locked into one fleet's availability, you compare your actual options and choose the bus that fits YOUR trip.
