25 Passenger Minibus Rental
For groups that have outgrown a Sprinter van but don't need a full-size motorcoach, the 25-passenger minibus is the sweet spot — and in Berkeley, it's one of the most practical vehicles on the road. It's compact enough to navigate the tight turn onto Bancroft Way near the UC Berkeley main gate, nimble enough to pull up cleanly at hotel loading zones along University Avenue, and comfortable enough that nobody's staring at the ceiling for the whole ride. Whether your group is heading over the Bay Bridge into San Francisco, shuttling between the East Bay and Oakland International Airport, or making a run down I-880 to a South Bay campus, one quick form on Berkeleycoachbuscompany.com is all it takes to compare 25-passenger minibuses and rates from a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving Berkeley, CA — no account required.

More About 25 Passenger Minibuses
Forget coordinating a four-car caravan through downtown Berkeley just to get 25 people to the same place at the same time. The 25-passenger minibus keeps your whole group together in one comfortable, climate-controlled cabin — from the first pickup to the last drop-off. In Berkeley, that matters more than people expect.
Bancroft Way runs one-way westbound, parking near the UC Berkeley campus fills fast on any weekday, and the stretch of University Avenue between downtown and the freeway can back up in both directions during the afternoon commute. A 25-passenger minibus handles all of it while your group settles in. Per the UC Berkeley visitor bus loading and unloading zones, groups unload in the red zone at the bottom of the Haas Grand Staircase (2227 Piedmont Avenue) and get picked up in the white loading zone at 2521 Bancroft Way at Telegraph — and the smaller footprint of a 25-passenger minibus makes those tight campus stops a whole lot easier than a 56-passenger coach ever could.
Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare 25-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Berkeley and the surrounding area — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

How much is a 25 Passenger Minibus rental?
No matter what your itinerary looks like, 25-passenger minibus rentals in Berkeley cost $190–$350+ per hour, $1,420–$2,180+ per day, and $5.40–$7.90+ per mile — and where your trip lands inside those ranges depends on the date, the operator, and the specific vehicle. A Saturday bachelorette night looping through Oakland and Temescal prices differently than a Tuesday airport transfer to Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport (OAK), and a handful of Berkeley dates tighten availability across the whole East Bay fast. Cal commencement runs across nearly two weeks in May, and the Big Game against Stanford on November 21, 2026 is the single toughest date of the year to find a vehicle.
