More About The 18 Passenger Party Bus
An 18-passenger party bus sits in the sweet spot between a large Sprinter van and a full-size minibus — big enough to keep your whole crew in one place, nimble enough to get through the tight grid of the French Quarter and the one-way streets around Magazine Street without the size issues of a coach bus. These buses typically run between 25 and 30 feet, which matters in a city like New Orleans where festival road closures during Jazz Fest or Mardi Gras can shut off major routes with little warning. Whether you're getting ready for a Bayou Classic weekend, heading out to the lakefront for a graduation celebration, or running a late-night loop through the Warehouse District, the 18-passenger bus handles the routing while your group handles the fun.

Amenities On Our 18 Passenger Party Bus
Step aboard and you'll find wraparound perimeter seating, color-changing LED cabin lighting, a premium sound system with Bluetooth connectivity, flat-panel TVs, and a built-in bar setup — everything your group needs to start the party before you even reach Bourbon Street. The cabin is climate-controlled, which is a real benefit when New Orleans humidity hits hard in July or August. Overhead storage handles bags, jackets, and anything else your group wants off their laps.
For a bachelorette party rolling through the Lower Garden District, a birthday group hitting rooftop bars in the Warehouse District, or a company outing heading to a Saints tailgate at Caesars Superdome, the amenities onboard keep the energy exactly where you want it.

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 daily rates starting at $2,121–$2,563+ for longer itineraries. Weekend rates run higher because demand peaks on Friday and Saturday nights — especially during Mardi Gras season, Jazz Fest weekends in late April and early May, and Southern Decadence in September, when availability tightens fast. Your total also moves with the hours booked, how far apart your pickup and drop-off points are, and how many stops are on your itinerary.
All-inclusive pricing means you see the exact number before you ever book — no surprises at the end of the night. Call 504-552-3110 to get your quote now.
