About this vehicle
Keep larger groups travelling together.
Our 19-seat minibuses provide practical seating for up to 19 people, with overhead storage for smaller bags and personal items. The long-wheelbase design makes them well suited to corporate travel, tours, sports teams, school groups, community groups and larger group journeys around New Zealand.
The passenger cabin allows larger groups to travel together in one vehicle, while automatic transmission and diesel performance make the minibus straightforward to drive around town and on the open road. As luggage storage is limited to overhead space, this vehicle is best suited to groups travelling with smaller bags or minimal luggage. A limited kilometre allowance applies, with the included allowance and any excess kilometre charges confirmed as part of your quote or booking.
