Amenities Available on our 18 Passenger Minibuses in Santa Clara

Wi-Fi
Stay connected on the road with 4G/5G Wi-Fi available on every 18-passenger minibus, perfect for checking email, streaming video, or joining Zoom calls while traveling between Santa Clara and San Jose, Mountain View, or Palo Alto. Each network supports 30+ devices simultaneously and can be upgraded for higher bandwidth if needed.

Onboard Restrooms
Many of our 18-passenger minibuses can be equipped with a half-bathroom (toilet and hand sanitizer) at the rear of the cabin, ideal for longer trips or groups with children. The restroom is fully enclosed for privacy and serviced before every departure. This amenity is especially useful for routes with limited restroom access, such as corporate shuttles to remote campuses or event transportation to Levi’s Stadium.

Onboard TVs
Flat-screen monitors are standard on most 18-passenger minibuses, with up to three screens placed throughout the cabin. DVD players and HDMI inputs allow you to show movies, presentations, or slideshows during the trip. Larger monitors can be mounted for special events or corporate groups needing advanced A/V capabilities.

Power Outlets
Keep your devices charged with multiple 110V power outlets and USB ports located throughout the minibus. Each row of seats has access to at least one outlet, making it easy for passengers to plug in laptops, tablets, or phones. This is essential for business travelers and students who need to stay powered up on the go.

Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Advanced climate control systems ensure the cabin stays comfortable year-round, with powerful air conditioning for hot summer days and efficient heating for cooler weather. Individual air vents above each seat allow passengers to adjust airflow to their preference. The system maintains a consistent temperature throughout the vehicle, regardless of outside conditions.

Leather Seating
Enjoy a comfortable ride with high-back seats upholstered in either cloth or optional leatherette. The seats are contoured for support, recline for relaxation, and include adjustable headrests. Armrests and padded cushions make it easy to settle in for longer journeys.

Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Store bags and personal items in the overhead parcel racks running along both sides of the cabin. Larger luggage can be placed in the rear cargo area, which is accessible from inside the vehicle. There’s plenty of space for suitcases, backpacks, or equipment cases.
