California Party Bus Company Reviews
Maddy D.
Booked California Party Bus Company for an LA to Napa trip (≈380 miles). The bus arrived 10 minutes early, spotless, and super comfortable for our group of 18. Zero stress, smooth ride, and no parking headaches. Worth every dollar.
Shein W.
We used the California Party Bus Company for a San Diego to Temecula wine tour (about 60 miles). The driver was professional, on time, and flexible with stops. Everyone could relax and enjoy the day safely. Would absolutely book again.
Kevin R.
Took a party bus from San Francisco to Santa Cruz (≈75 miles) for my birthday. Booking was easy, pricing was fair, and the driver communicated clearly the whole time. Clean bus, great vibes, and stress-free travel.
Danielle P.
Our group of 22 rode with the California Party Bus Company from Anaheim to Downtown LA (30 miles). Picked us up early, handled traffic like a pro, and kept everything on schedule. So much better than coordinating multiple cars.

Frequently Asked Questions About our 18 Passenger Party Buses
What Amenities Come Standard on Your 18 Passenger Party Buses?

You’ll get two large flat-screen TVs, a powerful Bluetooth-capable sound system with subwoofer, and color-changing LED accent lighting throughout the ceiling and floor. The wraparound seating is upholstered in high-quality vinyl or leatherette, and there’s a built-in bar area with cooler storage and counter space for drinks. Additional features include hardwood-style flooring, tinted windows, Wi-Fi connectivity, USB charging ports, and a PA microphone for announcements. This is a serious, fully loaded, custom-built vehicle designed to keep your group moving, entertained, and connected better than anything else on the road.
How Much Does an 18 Passenger Party Bus Rental Cost, and What Factors Change the Price?
An 18-passenger party bus rental costs $150 to $300+ per hour on weekdays and $150 to $320+ per hour on weekends, with full-day packages running $1,000 to $2,200 total. Your quote includes gratuity but does not cover venue parking passes, tolls, or driver hotel accommodations on overnight trips—those are billed separately. Final pricing depends on availability, location, and the length of your rental. Call us or use our online quote tool for real-time pricing and availability.
How Does an 18 Passenger Party Bus Compare to Our Other Bus Types?
The 18-passenger party bus hits the sweet spot between size, comfort, and cost—it’s big enough for most mid-size groups but still affordable and easy to maneuver compared to larger coaches or minibuses. You get wraparound seating, dual TVs, Bluetooth audio, LED lighting, and a bar area—amenities usually reserved for bigger buses—while keeping the price and footprint manageable. It’s perfect for bachelor/bachelorette parties, wedding shuttles, corporate outings, or any event where you need something more exciting than a standard minibus but don’t want to pay for a 40+ passenger coach. This is one of the most versatile and budget-friendly options in our fleet, delivering serious “party bus” energy without the oversized build or high price tag of the largest models.
How Far in Advance Should I Book an 18 Passenger Party Bus?
We recommend booking your 18-passenger party bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and lock in the best rate—especially if your event falls on a weekend, during peak wedding season, or around major holidays. Demand for party buses in California can be extremely high due to the state’s busy social calendar and large population centers, so the most popular dates tend to sell out quickly. If you’re planning a multi-day trip, a special event in a major city, or anything during the spring and summer “busy season,” it’s always safer to reserve your vehicle as early as possible. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have inventory available, but you may have fewer options and could pay a higher rate. Once you know your date and approximate headcount, call us right away—we can always adjust the details later if your plans change.
