Popular Amenities on 18 Passenger Minibus Rentals
Book an 18 passenger minibus in San Francisco and choose amenity options for a long Bay Area day. Climate control keeps the cabin cool when summer fog burns off and warm on those crisp Pacific evenings. High-back reclining seats, available in leather or cloth depending on the model, are another amenity option.
Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags, while the rear luggage area fits roller bags and duffels for groups arriving from San Francisco International Airport. Power outlets and USB charging ports keep devices alive through a full day of sightseeing or a corporate event at Moscone Center (747 Howard St, San Francisco, CA 94103). Flat-screen monitors with DVD and HDMI input, a PA system with a wireless mic, and Bluetooth/AUX stereo let you customize the ride, play a curated playlist on the way to a Napa Valley wine tour, or run a presentation for your team headed to a conference.
At Moscone Center, the South Driveway and building-specific cutouts serve shuttle loading and unloading, but parking is not allowed in the cutouts, and use of the North and West cutouts must be confirmed before the event. For a group headed to a conference, that means passengers can unload at an event access point while the minibus stages elsewhere. WiFi is available on many models, and select vehicles include an onboard restroom for longer runs up to Sacramento or down the Peninsula.
