Minibus Rentals Memphis, Tennessee

The inside of a minibus is designed for comfort, convenience, and group travel. You’ll find forward-facing seats upholstered in leather or cloth, with high backs and optional headrests. Aisles are wide enough for easy movement. There are overhead parcel racks for small bags, and larger models offer undercarriage storage for suitcases. Interior lighting includes LED reading lights and dome lights. The front includes a PA system and space for a driver console, while rear sections may have additional storage or a small lavatory on larger models.

Minibuses typically seat between 15 and 35 passengers, depending on the model and interior configuration. Common sizes include 18, 20, 23, 25, 28, 30, and 35-passenger layouts. Smaller minibuses (15–20 seats) are often used for airport transfers, hotel shuttles, or local circulator routes, while larger versions (up to 35 seats) are ideal for moving big groups such as sports teams, corporate event attendees, or school field trip classes. Each bus can be customized with forward-facing, perimeter, or mixed seating arrangements to best suit your group’s size and needs.

When you book a minibus rental in Memphis, you can expect a wide range of modern amenities designed for comfort and convenience on the road. Standard features include cushioned forward-facing seats with optional leatherette or vinyl upholstery, powerful air conditioning and heating systems, and overhead parcel racks for carry-on items. Many minibuses come equipped with Wi-Fi, USB ports and 110V power outlets at each row, flat-screen monitors mounted at the front or mid-cabin, and a public address (PA) system with a driver/intercom microphone. Larger models offer underfloor luggage compartments, while smaller units provide rear storage areas or additional overhead space. Other available amenities include tinted windows, individual reading lights, and onboard restrooms on select larger models.

Yes, most modern minibuses are equipped with multiple 110V power outlets and USB charging ports throughout the cabin. Outlets are typically located along the sidewalls, under seats, or in the armrests, allowing passengers to charge laptops, tablets, smartphones, and other electronic devices during the trip. The exact number and placement of outlets may vary depending on the minibus model and manufacturer, so it’s important to specify your power needs when booking to ensure your vehicle has adequate charging options for your group.

Most standard minibuses do not come equipped with bathrooms due to their compact size and focus on short- to medium-distance trips. However, some larger minibus models (typically those with 30–35 seats) can be custom-ordered with a small onboard restroom located at the rear of the vehicle. If your group requires a bathroom on board, please let us know at the time of booking so we can arrange a minibus with this feature or recommend a larger vehicle, such as a full-size charter bus, which comes standard with a restroom.

Yes, minibuses offer several options for storing luggage and personal belongings. Most models come equipped with overhead compartments similar to those found on full-size coaches, providing space for backpacks, purses, and small carry-on items. Larger minibuses (especially those with 28–35 seats) often include rear luggage bays or underfloor storage compartments capable of holding medium to large suitcases, duffel bags, or equipment cases. For groups traveling with substantial baggage—such as airport transfers, sports teams, or band tours—it’s important to specify your storage needs when booking so we can provide a minibus with adequate capacity. Smaller minibuses (15–20 seats) may have limited storage space and are best suited for trips with minimal luggage.

The cost of renting a minibus in Memphis depends on several factors, including the size of the vehicle, length of the trip, time of year, and any additional amenities requested. Generally, you can expect to pay between $700 and $1,500 per day for a standard minibus rental. For shorter trips, some companies offer hourly rates ranging from $125 to $225 per hour, with a four-hour minimum. Longer trips or multi-day events may be billed at a flat daily rate. Additional charges such as fuel, tolls, parking, and driver accommodations (for overnight trips) may apply.

To secure the best availability and pricing, it’s recommended to book your Memphis minibus rental six to nine months in advance, especially if your trip falls during the city’s busy seasons. Spring and fall are peak times due to major events like Memphis in May, Beale Street Music Festival, and the St. Jude Marathon, as well as wedding and school travel. Summer months also see high demand from tourism and festival crowds. Last-minute bookings are possible but may limit your vehicle options and increase costs. Planning ahead ensures you get the exact minibus size and amenities you need for your group.

Your minibus rental quote includes the cost of the vehicle, driver, and fuel for the duration of your trip, but it does not cover tolls, parking fees, or special event permits. In Memphis, groups traveling to FedExForum, AutoZone Park, or Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium will need to budget for on-site parking passes, which typically range from $20 to $50 per bus depending on the venue and event. Downtown hotel and riverfront attractions may require additional parking or loading zone fees. Toll roads are uncommon in the Mid-South region, but any incurred charges will be billed separately. For overnight or out-of-town trips, clients are responsible for providing either pre-arranged parking or reimbursement for expenses incurred. Detailed terms and conditions will be outlined in your rental agreement.

Memphis public transit is operated by MATA (Memphis Area Transit Authority), which runs fixed-route buses, paratransit vans, and the vintage trolley line along Main Street, Riverside Drive, and Madison Avenue. While affordable, MATA service is limited by infrequent schedules, indirect routes, and last-mile gaps that make it impractical for large groups, out-of-town visitors, or anyone on a tight timetable. Private minibus rentals offer door-to-door transportation anywhere in the city or region—including Graceland, Beale Street, FedExForum, Memphis International Airport, and suburban destinations like Germantown or Collierville—without transfers or missed connections. You set the schedule, and your entire party travels together in one vehicle. Minibuses are also faster, more comfortable, and available 24/7, making them ideal for events, airport transfers, and custom itineraries.
