Amenities Available on our 18 Passenger Minibuses in Indio

WiFi packages can be customized for data-heavy uses like Zoom webinars or live event coverage.
Onboard Restrooms
Many of our 18-passenger minibuses include a compact restroom at the rear, ideal for nonstop runs down I-10 or long-distance charters to LAX, Disneyland, or San Diego. This feature saves time by reducing unscheduled stops and keeps your group comfortable during peak traffic or desert heat. If you need a restroom, just ask—we have several floorplans with this option.
Onboard TVs
Entertainment options include one or two flat-screen TVs (19”–32”) positioned at the front and mid-cabin, DVD/Blu-ray player, HDMI input for laptops or game consoles, and PA system with microphone. Great for showing movies, training videos, or highlight reels en route to sports tournaments at Empire Polo Club or Indian Wells Tennis Garden.
Power Outlets
Every row has access to 110V power outlets and USB charging ports so passengers can keep phones, tablets, and laptops fully charged. This is especially useful for conference groups working on presentations, photographers editing images, or anyone relying on electronic devices during the trip.

Advanced climate control system with high-capacity roof-mounted A/C, heating, and individual adjustable air vents above each seat ensures rapid cooling even during summer afternoons in Indio. Tinted windows provide additional sun protection and help maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the cabin.
Leather Seating
Seats up to 18 passengers in high-back, reclining leather or leatherette seats arranged in forward-facing rows with optional perimeter/limo-style layout. Each seat has armrests, headrests, three-point seat belts, and extra legroom compared to standard vans. Cloth upholstery available for budget packages.
