15 Passenger Party Bus
A 15-passenger party bus is the entry point for groups that want the full party bus experience — onboard sound system, LED lighting, and a built-in bar setup — without paying for seats nobody uses. Weekend hourly rates run $250–$350, and per-day rates range from $1,400–$2,850.

- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
18 Passenger Party Bus

20 Passenger Party Bus
Twenty passengers is a sweet spot for birthday parties, anniversary outings, and mid-sized bachelorette groups. The 20-passenger party bus gives the group room to move, with flat-panel TVs, premium sound, and wraparound seating. Weekend hourly rates run $275–$350 and per-day rates $1,950–$2,800.

25 Passenger Party Bus
The 25-passenger party bus handles mid-sized groups heading to concerts at Frontwave Arena or game days at Snapdragon Stadium without anyone getting left behind in a parking lot. Weekend hourly rates land between $275–$375. The extra seats also make it the right call when your bachelorette headcount grows from 18 to 24 the week before the trip — which happens more often than anyone plans for.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
28 Passenger Party Bus
The 28-passenger party bus covers the gap between a mid-size party bus and a full 30-seater, and it often comes in at a sharper per-head rate when you do the math. Weekday hourly rates run $250–$350 and weekend rates $275–$375. A natural fit for school reunion groups, office outings heading down to the Del Mar Racetrack, or larger rehearsal dinner parties moving between venues in Oceanside and Encinitas.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
30 Passenger Party Bus
Thirty seats means your entire group rides together — no convoy, no one getting lost on the 78 interchange at rush hour. The 30-passenger party bus brings the full amenity stack: full-length bar, onboard TVs, LED lighting, and serious sound. Weekend hourly rates run $325–$425 and per-day rates $2,350–$3,050.
Perfect for large bachelorette weekends working through Oceanside's Oceanside Brewing Company and then heading south toward Little Italy.

- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
40 Passenger Party Bus
The 40-passenger party bus is where group transportation starts to feel like an event in itself. At $325–$500/hour on weekends, split across 35–40 people, the per-head number gets surprisingly reasonable fast. Large birthday parties, Padres or San Diego FC group trips, and milestone anniversary outings all land well here.
When parking at Snapdragon Stadium can run $20–$40 per vehicle or more on event days, one bus makes the math obvious.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
50 Passenger Party Bus
The 50-passenger party bus is the right call when your group is large enough that splitting up isn't really an option. Weekend hourly rates run $325–$500 and per-day rates $2,150–$4,050. Think large corporate outings, Super Girl Surf Pro group trips to the Oceanside Pier, or multi-family reunions running a full North County day itinerary from Carlsbad Flower Fields to Harrah's Resort SoCal.
Common features may include:
- LED & Fiber Optic Lighting
- Bluetooth Sound System
- Wraparound Leather Seating
- Privacy Tinted Windows
15-35 Passenger Minibus
The 15–35 passenger minibus is the workhorse for corporate shuttles, wedding guest loops, and school field trips where the priority is straightforward point-to-point movement over a party atmosphere. Reclining seats, climate control, and overhead storage cover the basics. Weekday hourly rates run $200–$250 and per-day rates $1,100–$2,150.
The minibus's tighter footprint also handles the narrower streets around Oceanside's historic downtown and Harbor District without any maneuvering headaches.
Common features may include:
- Climate Control
- Bluetooth Sound System
- PA System
- Overhead Luggage Racks
40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
For longer hauls — think San Diego International Airport transfers for a large travel group, a full team traveling to a tournament, or a corporate event at the San Diego Convention Center — the 40–56 passenger charter bus is the right fit. Undercarriage luggage bays, onboard restrooms, WiFi, and power outlets handle the distance. Weekend hourly rates run $200–$350 and per-day rates $1,350–$2,850.
