More About 28 Passenger Minibuses
The 28-passenger minibus hits the sweet spot between a 15-passenger van and a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach — compact enough for routes near University Avenue and SW 2nd Avenue in downtown Gainesville, but roomy enough that nobody's sitting on a lap. You may find popular models like the Glaval Universal, Starcraft Starlite, and Turtle Top Terra Transit through the network — many with a center aisle, standing headroom, and a climate-controlled cabin that handles Florida's humidity from the first pickup to the last drop-off. Why limit yourself to one fleet?

Depending on the vehicle offered, you may also find power outlets and USB charging ports, flat-screen monitors with DVD or HDMI input, a PA system with wireless mic, and Bluetooth/AUX stereo so your playlist runs the whole way.

How much does a 28 Passenger Minibus cost?
28-passenger minibus rentals in Gainesville cost $190–$355+ per hour, $1,540–$2,255+ per day, and $5.65–$8.25+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday shuttle looping between a hotel on Newberry Road and Ben Hill Griffin Stadium for a Gators home game prices differently than a Tuesday airport transfer to GNV — and a handful of Gainesville dates, like Florida Gators home football Saturdays and UF spring commencement ceremonies scheduled for April 29–May 3, 2027, can fill the market fast.
