More About 35 Passenger Minibuses
No two group trips through Merced look the same, and the 35-passenger minibus was built with exactly that kind of variety in mind. It's compact enough to navigate the streets around Merced College (3600 M St, Merced, CA 95348) and nimble enough to pull up cleanly at hotel loading zones along Motel Drive — but it still seats 35 passengers comfortably with room for carry-ons overhead and roller bags in the rear luggage area. Popular models you'll find through the network include the Turtle Top Terra Transit, the Starcraft Starlite, and the Glaval Universal, each offering a center aisle, full standing headroom, and a climate-controlled cabin that makes the ride from Merced to Yosemite Valley or Sacramento feel nothing like a carpool.
Because Mercedcharterbuscompany.com pulls from a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving the area, you're never stuck with whatever one fleet happens to have open on your date — you compare pictures, packages, and pricing side by side and choose the bus that works for you!

Common Amenities Available on 35 Passenger Minibus Rentals
Mercedcharterbuscompany.com makes it incredibly easy to find a 35-passenger minibus loaded with the features your group actually wants on a Merced trip! Every model in the network comes with air conditioning and climate control — critical when Central Valley summers push past 100 degrees — and high-back reclining seats in leather or cloth with extra legroom so nobody arrives stiff after a long ride up CA-140 toward Yosemite. Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags (one bag per person), and a rear luggage area fits roller bags and duffels for groups traveling with more gear.
You'll also find power outlets and USB charging ports, flat-screen monitors with DVD or HDMI input, a PA system with wireless mic for tour guides or group leaders, and Bluetooth/AUX stereo so you can run your own playlist the whole way. WiFi is available on many models — great for the team that wants to stay productive on the ride from Merced to a Bay Area conference. Onboard restrooms are available on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts are available on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote!

How much does a 35 Passenger Minibus cost to rent?
Don't spend another minute calling company after company just to get a ballpark number — Mercedcharterbuscompany.com puts pricing on your screen in under 30 seconds! 35-passenger minibus rentals in Merced cost $225–$370+ per hour, $1,815–$2,415+ per day, and $6.20–$8.95+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday wedding shuttle looping between a downtown Merced hotel and a vineyard venue in the Merced River wine country will price differently than a Tuesday airport run to Fresno Yosemite International — and a handful of dates on the Central Valley calendar, like Merced County Fair week in June and UC Merced commencement in May, have limited availability across the whole region, which means higher prices and fewer choices the longer you wait. The fastest way to see numbers for your exact trip is to enter your date, group size, and pickup location right here — you'll land on a results page showing vehicles, photos, and pricing from a network of transportation companies serving Merced, no account needed.
