More About 28 Passenger Minibuses
The 28-passenger minibus is the sweet spot for groups that have outgrown a Sprinter van but don't need the full footprint of a 56-passenger motorcoach. In Roanoke, that distinction matters — these vehicles navigate the tight turns on Jefferson Street through downtown, handle the grade changes heading up into the Blue Ridge Parkway corridor, and pull cleanly into hotel loading zones along Williamson Road without the clearance concerns that come with a full-size coach. Popular models in the network include the Glaval Universal, the Starcraft Starlite, and the Turtle Top Terra Transit — every one of them gives you a center aisle, enough roof height to walk to your seat standing up, and a cabin that feels like a vehicle, not a repurposed cargo van.
Why settle for one company's leftover inventory? Compare 28-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Roanoke and the surrounding Roanoke Valley — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

What’s Typically Included on 28 Passenger Minibus Rentals
The 28-passenger minibuses available through the network come loaded with features your group actually wants on a Roanoke trip! Every model includes air conditioning and climate control — critical when August humidity settles into the valley or when the temperature drops fast on a fall evening in the Blue Ridge. Seats are high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with extra legroom so nobody arrives stiff after a run down I-581 to the airport or back up US-220 from Rocky Mount.
Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags — one bag per person — and a rear luggage area fits roller bags and duffels for groups 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 from the Roanoke City Market all the way to Smith Mountain Lake. WiFi is available on many models — great for the corporate team that needs to stay connected on the ride between meetings.
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 28 Passenger Minibus cost?
28-passenger minibus rentals in Roanoke 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 wedding shuttle looping between the Hotel Roanoke and a vineyard in the Roanoke Valley Wine Country will price differently than a Tuesday airport transfer to Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport (ROA) — and a handful of dates on the Roanoke calendar tighten availability across the whole market fast. The Star City Half Marathon, Virginia Tech home Saturdays at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg (a 40-mile run down US-460), and the Roanoke City Market festival weekends all pull demand at once.
Prom season in April and May across Patrick Henry High School, William Fleming High School, and surrounding Roanoke County districts is one of the single busiest stretches of the year — book early, or expect premium rates and slim pickings.
