More About 35 Passenger Minibuses
Find exactly what your group needs without settling for whatever one company happens to have parked in its lot! The 35-passenger minibus is a great pick for groups that don't need a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach but need more room than a compact 15-passenger van. In Rapid City, that matters — these buses are maneuverable enough to handle the winding roads up to Custer State Park (13329 US-16A, Custer, SD 57730) and the tight turns on the Needles Highway, while still delivering a comfortable, spacious ride your whole group will appreciate from the first pickup to the final drop-off.
Popular models in the network include the Glaval Universal, Starcraft Starlite, and Turtle Top Terra Transit — every one of them gives you a center aisle, enough roof height to walk to your seat standing up, and a climate-controlled cabin that makes the South Dakota heat or a late-season chill a non-issue. Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare 35-passenger minibuses from a network of providers serving Rapid City and the surrounding area — all in one place, with instant online pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

Amenities Commonly Found on 35 Passenger Minibus Rentals
Whatever your group needs on a Rapid City trip, the 35-passenger minibuses available through the network come loaded with features your passengers will actually use! Every model includes air conditioning and climate control — essential when summer temperatures swing between a cool morning at Crazy Horse Memorial (12151 Avenue of the Chiefs, Crazy Horse, SD 57730) and a hot afternoon on the open plains. Seats are high-back reclining in leather or cloth depending on the model, with extra legroom so nobody arrives stiff after the drive out to Badlands.
Overhead compartments handle carry-ons and day bags (one bag per person), and a rear luggage area fits roller bags and duffels for groups with more gear. You'll also find power outlets and USB charging ports, flat-screen monitors with DVD or HDMI input, a PA system with wireless mic for tour guides or group leaders, and Bluetooth/AUX stereo so you can run your own playlist the whole way. WiFi is available on many models, onboard restrooms on select models, and ADA-accessible vehicles with rear or side wheelchair lifts are available on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote!

How much does a 35 Passenger Minibus cost?
Choose the package that actually fits your group — and get pricing in under 30 seconds! 35-passenger minibus rentals in Rapid City cost $225–$370+ per hour, $1,815–$2,415+ per day, and $6.20–$8.95+ per mile depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A summer Saturday shuttle looping between downtown hotels and Mount Rushmore will price differently than a weekday corporate transfer to Ellsworth Air Force Base (1280 Ellsworth St, Box Elder, SD 57706) — and a handful of dates on the Rapid City calendar have limited availability across the whole region, which means higher prices. The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally (held each August in nearby Sturgis, SD 57785) is the single busiest stretch of the year for group transportation across the Black Hills — if your trip lands anywhere near that first full week of August, book as early as you possibly can.
