How much is an 18 Passenger Minibus rental?
Getting an accurate price for an 18 passenger minibus rental in Erie, Pennsylvania takes under 30 seconds with Charterbuserie.com's online quote tool — no account needed, no callbacks to wait on. Rates across the network typically run $190 – $330+ per hour, $1,210 – $1,990+ per day, and $5.00 – $7.25+ per mile, depending on the vehicle, the date, and the specifics of your itinerary. A short transfer from downtown Erie to Erie International Airport (ERI) (4411 W 12th St, Erie, PA 16505) will land on the lower end of that range, while a full-day shuttle looping between Presque Isle State Park (301 Peninsula Dr, Erie, PA 16505), Erie Zoo (423 W 38th St, Erie, PA 16508), and Waldameer Park (220 Peninsula Dr, Erie, PA 16505) will run higher.
At Erie International Airport, Uber and Lyft availability is very limited, especially later in the evening and at night, so an 18-passenger minibus rental gives your group one coordinated transfer. Presque Isle State Park is included in the itinerary, and Erie Zoo group reservations made at least two weeks in advance can qualify for discounted rates. Waldameer has two free parking lots and recommends the East lot for late-afternoon arrivals.
An 18-passenger minibus keeps your group together for the trip to the park. Peak weekends, prom season, and summer dates along the lake fill up fast, so the sooner you rent, the better your options and your rate. Fill out one quick form right now to instantly view minibus prices from a network of Erie-area transportation companies, or call 814-738-8910 and a live agent will build a custom package around your exact headcount, pickup location, and schedule.
