More About The 18 Passenger Party Bus
The 18-passenger party bus is a mid-size vehicle — wide enough for perimeter seating around the full cabin interior, compact enough to navigate the one-way streets of the French Quarter and the tight turns near the Marigny without the clearance issues a full-size charter bus brings. It's the right call when your group has outgrown a Sprinter van but doesn't need the overhead storage and highway stamina of a 40-plus-seat coach. Think bachelorette weekends, birthday crawls hitting three or four spots in the Bywater, or post-wedding party runs down St. Charles Avenue.
For groups in the 12-to-18 range, it's rarely the wrong answer. Reach out to Party Bus Rental New Orleans at 504-264-9423 and we'll confirm the fit for your headcount and itinerary.

Amenities On Our 18 Passenger Party Bus
Step aboard and the cabin does most of the work. The 18-passenger party bus in our New Orleans fleet comes with color-changing LED mood lighting, a premium Bluetooth sound system, and a built-in bar — exactly what a Bourbon Street pre-game or a Jazz Fest group shuttle needs before you even reach the first venue. Wraparound perimeter seating keeps everyone facing the center of the action, and the flat-panel TVs work for everything from pre-game hype reels to custom playlists on the ride from Lakeview to the Superdome.
Climate control is standard — not a luxury when you're dealing with July in New Orleans. ADA-accessible options are available; let us know when you book and we'll match you with the right vehicle.

How much does an 18 Passenger Party Bus cost in New Orleans?
An 18-passenger party bus rental in New Orleans runs $266–$330+ per hour on weekdays and $268–$378+ per hour on weekends, with full-day rates starting at $2,121–$2,563+. A few things move the final number: weekend bookings during Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, Essence Fest, or a Saints home-game stretch push rates toward the higher end of those ranges as buses fill up fast across the metro. Longer trips — say, a round-trip run from the CBD to a reception venue in Metairie or out toward the North Shore — factor in distance, not just hours.
The season matters too; summer months and holiday weekends book fast and command the upper tier. Get your all-inclusive quote in under 30 seconds at 504-264-9423 — no hidden costs, exact price before you ever book.
