Mini Bus

Who It’s For

Our 31-passenger mini bus is the right call for:

  • Corporate shuttles and employee transportation — airport runs, office-to-office transfers, and company events
  • School and university groups — field trips, club outings, and athletic events for smaller student groups
  • Bus rental for weddings and special events — the most popular shuttle bus rental for keeping guests moving between venues, hotels, and ceremony sites without the cost of a full coach
  • Sports teams — travel for smaller rosters and youth leagues throughout California
  • Tour and sightseeing groups — wine country, national parks, and custom day trips
  • Church and faith organizations — retreats and congregation outings that don’t require a full-size bus
  • Social events — birthday trips, reunions, and group outings where everyone stays together

Service Areas

TCS mini buses operate out of four California markets:

  • Los Angeles and Orange County — serving the greater LA metro and OC for over 40 years
  • San Diego — serving groups throughout San Diego County and beyond
  • Bay Area — serving San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, and surrounding areas

31-Passenger Mini Bus

Not every group needs 56 seats. TCS mini bus rentals are built for the groups in between, large enough to need a dedicated vehicle, small enough that a full-size coach would be overkill. With a capacity of 31 passengers, our shuttle bus rental service is a smart, efficient solution for corporate outings, school events, weddings, and social occasions across Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, and the Bay Area.

Same experienced drivers. Same rigorous maintenance standards. Just a smaller footprint.

Our mini buses are fully equipped for groups that expect more than just a seat:

  • Wi-Fi internet access — stay connected on the road
