Shuttle Bus Prices in Santa Ana, California

Shuttle bus rental prices in Santa Ana typically run from $1,200 to $5,000 or more per day or trip, depending on several key factors including the size of the vehicle, the length and duration of your trip, and current demand. Smaller 18-, 20-, and 25-passenger minibuses generally cost between $1,200 and $3,500 per day/trip, while larger 56-passenger full-size shuttle buses usually range from $2,500 to $5,000+ per day/trip. You may also see rates quoted by the hour ($185–$400+ per hour) or by the mile ($5.50–$8.50+ per mile), depending on how your trip is structured. Multi-day and longer-distance trips will fall at the higher end of the spectrum.

For example, a standard local trip within Orange County—such as transporting a group from Santa Ana to Disneyland, John Wayne Airport, or a nearby hotel—will typically cost between $1,500 and $3,000 total, depending on the exact mileage and schedule. Longer trips to destinations like Los Angeles, San Diego, or Palm Springs will be priced higher based on the additional distance.

Several important factors influence the final price of your shuttle bus rental in Santa Ana:

• Vehicle Size: Larger buses with more seating capacity (e.g., 56-passenger coaches) cost more than smaller minibuses (18-, 20-, or 25-passenger models), but the price difference isn’t always proportional to the number of seats.
• Trip Duration: Rentals are billed hourly, daily, or by mileage. Longer trips—either in terms of hours or total miles—will increase the total cost.
• Distance Traveled: Trips that cover more miles, such as out-of-town charters to Los Angeles, San Diego, or other regional destinations, will be more expensive than local shuttles within Orange County.
• Time of Year: Demand for shuttle buses peaks during certain seasons, especially summer months, holidays, and around major local events. High-demand periods can lead to higher rates.
• Local Events and Blackout Dates: Large events like the OC Marathon, NAMM Show at the Anaheim Convention Center, or school graduations can create blackout dates where availability is limited and prices increase.
• Additional Expenses: Tolls, parking fees, and lodging for the driver (if required on overnight trips) are typically not included in the base price and must be paid separately by the customer.
