35 Passenger Minibus

We offer 35-passenger minibuses in a variety of colors to suit any occasion or personal preference, including classic black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and even yellow. If you’re looking for something truly unique, we also provide custom wraps for an additional fee, allowing you to display company logos, wedding monograms, school colors, or any other graphics of your choice. This is a popular option for corporate events, sports teams, and branded shuttles.

Let us know if you have a specific color in mind, and we’ll do our best to match it. Our goal is to provide you with a vehicle that not only meets your functional needs but also looks great in photos and makes the right impression on your passengers.

Standard amenities on our 35-passenger minibuses include plush reclining seats with armrests and headrests, individual LED reading lights, powerful climate control with dual A/C units, and ample storage space with overhead luggage racks and rear cargo bays. Stay connected with multiple USB ports and power outlets at every row, onboard WiFi, and a full HD video system with 4–6 flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray player, and HDMI inputs. Additional features include a PA microphone, Bluetooth sound system, hardwood-style flooring, tinted windows for privacy, and optional extras like seat-back tray tables or coolers. The bus comes standard with either a rear luggage compartment or dedicated storage area, providing plenty of room for bags and equipment.

The cost to rent a 35-passenger minibus in Mount Prospect typically ranges from $1,610 to $3,465 per day, $150 to $450+ per hour, or $4.00 to $9.95 per mile, depending on several factors. Key variables that affect pricing include the length and duration of your trip, whether it’s a local charter within the Chicago area or an out-of-town destination, the time of year (with peak rates during spring and summer), and the exact pick-up location. Additional costs may apply for multi-day trips requiring overnight accommodations for the driver, tolls, parking fees, or special requests such as custom wraps and extra amenities.

Because every trip is different, we recommend calling for a personalized quote based on your specific itinerary. Our team will provide a clear breakdown of all charges so you know exactly what to expect. We strive to offer competitive rates while delivering exceptional value and service.

The 35-passenger minibus strikes a perfect balance between the smaller 18–28 passenger models and the larger 40–55 passenger full-size coach buses. Compared to the smaller minibuses, the 35-passenger version offers significantly more seating, increased legroom, wider aisles, and substantially greater luggage capacity, making it better suited for longer trips or groups with extra gear. It also features upgraded amenities such as additional video monitors, enhanced sound systems, and larger rear storage compartments that are not always available on the 18–28 passenger models.

While it doesn’t have quite the luggage volume or restroom facilities of a 56-passenger motorcoach, the 35-passenger minibus is much easier to maneuver and park in urban environments like downtown Mount Prospect or neighborhood streets. It’s an ideal mid-size option when you need more space than a standard minibus but don’t require a full-size coach, offering excellent versatility for a wide range of events and destinations. This model is popular because it delivers many “big bus” features in a more compact and cost-effective package.

We recommend booking your 35-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance to ensure the best selection and availability, especially if your trip falls during peak seasons such as spring wedding months, summer festival weekends, or the fall sports and school event calendar. In Mount Prospect and the greater Chicago area, demand for mid-size buses spikes around major local events like downtown Chicago parades, concert series at Ravinia, graduation ceremonies, and holiday celebrations. Last-minute reservations can sometimes be accommodated, but you may have fewer options and could pay a higher rate due to limited inventory. Securing your vehicle early not only locks in preferred dates and amenities but also gives you more flexibility if your plans change. If you’re scheduling a trip that coincides with a large public event or will require special permitting (such as a city-center drop-off), the earlier you book, the better we can coordinate all logistics to your satisfaction.

A 35-passenger minibus is designed to handle the luggage needs of a full group without sacrificing cabin space or comfort. Most models feature either a large rear storage compartment or dual mid-ship luggage bays, typically accommodating one standard suitcase (22” x 14” x 9”) per passenger plus additional items like backpacks, garment bags, or equipment cases. Overhead racks inside the cabin provide extra room for smaller carry-ons, laptop bags, and personal items.

If your group is traveling with unusually large or bulky gear—such as musical instruments, sports equipment, or trade show displays—please let us know in advance so we can confirm exact dimensions and make special arrangements if needed. For most standard trips ( airport transfers, overnight excursions, etc.), the luggage capacity will be more than sufficient.
