Albuquerque Party Bus Company Reviews

They were great to work with from start to finish! We used Albuquerque Party Bus Company for our company holiday party and they exceeded expectations. The driver was friendly, the 40-passenger bus was spotless and super comfortable, and the whole booking process was easy. Will definitely use them again for future corporate events or any large group transportation needs. I highly recommend it!

I have used Albuquerque Party Bus Company three times now for large group trips, and they’re the only company I’ll call. They’ve always been on time, professional, and quick to respond to any questions or changes. It’s hard finding a reliable transportation company these days, but these guys are the real deal. I highly recommend it!

Albuquerque Party Bus Company was exceptional!! We rented a 14-passenger sprinter limo for my husband’s surprise 40th birthday, and it made the night perfect. The bus arrived early, looked amazing inside and out, and had plenty of room for coolers and snacks. The driver handled all the Nob Hill bar stops without any hassle, and even got us through late-night drive-thru at Blake’s. Great company, great rates, and they made the whole process easy. I would definitely use them again!

Veronica made the reservation extremely easy for us! We booked a 20-passenger party bus with Albuquerque Party Bus Company for a friend’s birthday and it was the best decision ever. The bus showed up on time, super clean, and had awesome lights and sound system. We hit a bunch of breweries downtown and didn’t have to worry about parking or getting rides. The driver was chill and got us everywhere comfortably. Would definitely use these guys again for any big group event!

Trips and Events in Albuquerque a 18 Passenger Party Bus Is Great For

This is one of the most versatile vehicles in our fleet, suitable for any event or occasion that requires moving a medium-sized group of people in style.

Corporate clients use it for moving teams to conferences, team-building events, or holiday parties. It’s also great for birthday celebrations, quinceañeras, Sweet 16s, or any special occasion.

Frequently Asked Questions About our 18 Passenger Party Buses

Standard amenities on our 18 passenger party bus include multiple flat-screen TVs, a powerful sound system with subwoofers, Bluetooth/AUX inputs, DVD player, LED fiber optic lighting, dual wet bars with coolers, wraparound leather seating, hardwood or vinyl flooring, tinted windows, and full climate control.

This is one of the most versatile and well-equipped buses in the fleet, perfect for any type of event or group outing.

The cost to rent an 18-passenger party bus varies depending on the date, location, and length of your trip. Hourly rates typically range from $150 to $300+ on weekdays and $150 to $320+ on weekends, with daily rates between $1,000 and $2,200. Factors that affect pricing include the time of year (peak season vs. off-season), total mileage, number of hours, and whether the bus needs to travel outside the local area. Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking, or overnight accommodations for the driver. The best way to get an accurate quote is to contact us with your exact itinerary so we can provide a custom estimate based on real-time availability.

The 18 passenger party bus is a midsize option that offers more space and amenities than a sprinter or limo, but is smaller and more maneuverable than a 28- 40 passenger party bus. It’s ideal for groups that want a true “party” atmosphere with stand-up headroom, multiple TVs, full sound system, and LED lighting, without stepping up to the largest and most expensive models. Compared to a charter bus or minibus, the party bus has perimeter seating, built-in bars, and entertainment features designed for socializing rather than point-to-point transportation. It’s a good balance of size, cost, and capability, making it one of the most popular choices for events of all kinds.

We recommend booking your 18-passenger party bus at least 3-6 months in advance, especially if your event falls during peak seasons such as prom (April-June), wedding season (May-October), or major holidays like New Year’s Eve and Fourth of July. Availability can become limited quickly during these times, and reserving early ensures you get the exact vehicle and amenities you want. Last-minute bookings are possible but may result in higher rates or fewer options. Once you have your event date confirmed, it’s best to secure your reservation as soon as possible. A deposit is required to hold the bus, with the balance due before the date of service.
