What Bus Sizes Can You Charter in Singapore?
Singapore Bus Charter runs four coach sizes: a 23-seater minibus, a 45-seater coach, a 49-seater coach, and a 50-seater coach, the largest single vehicle. Groups of 10 to 23 take the minibus, 24 to 45 take the 45-seater, 46 to 49 take the 49-seater, and a full 50 takes the 50-seater. For groups over 50 we combine coaches so everyone travels together. Coach chartering works the same way at every size: you book the whole vehicle, not a seat. Every coach is chartered with a professional driver included, so there is no self-drive option.

Looking for a Different Size?
People often search for a bus size that is not a standard Singapore charter vehicle. Here is the closest coach we run for each one.
| You searched for | What we recommend | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 10, 13, 16 or 17-seater minibus | 23-Seater Minibus | Our smallest coach. You pay for the vehicle, not per seat, so a part-filled 23-seater is still the cheapest option. |
| 18, 19, 20 or 24-seater bus | 23-Seater Minibus | Seats up to 23. For exactly 24 people we move you to the 45-seater so nobody is left behind. |
| 25, 28, 30, 32, 33 or 35-seater bus | 45-Seater Coach | No 25 or 30-seater exists in our fleet. The 45-seater costs only a little more and gives everyone extra room. |
| 40, 42 or 44-seater bus | 45-Seater Coach | Seats 40 with room to spare and holds about 35 large bags. Send your bag count and we confirm the fit when we quote. |
| 50-seater bus | 50-Seater Coach Limited stock | 50 seats is the largest single coach we run, so a group of exactly 50 fits on one bus. For 51 or more we add a second vehicle. |
| 52 to 72-seater bus, or 100+ people | Multiple Coaches | We combine coaches on one booking, for groups of up to 500, with one contact and a coordinated arrival time. |
Hourly, one-way, and two-way charters are all available on every coach size.
Coach vs Minibus: What Is the Difference?
A minibus is a small bus for about 10 to 23 people. A coach is a full-size bus for 24 to 50, with underfloor luggage holds and reclining seats. At Singapore Bus Charter the minibus is our 23-seater, and the coaches are our 45, 49 and 50-seaters. Both come with a professional driver, and both are priced per vehicle, not per seat. Choose on headcount first, then luggage.
| Minibus (23-seater) | Coach (45, 49, 50-seater) | |
|---|---|---|
| Passengers | 10 to 23 | 24 to 50 |
| Large bags | About 15, rear row folded | About 35 to 40, underfloor holds |
| Seats | Standard, seatbelt on every seat | Reclining, seatbelt on every seat |
| Access | HDB estate roads, hotel porches, some underground drop-offs | Main roads and full-size drop-off bays |
| From, per trip | SGD 85 | SGD 100 to 120 |
| From, per hour | SGD 50 | SGD 60 to 80 |
| Cost per person, full | About SGD 3.70 | About SGD 2.22 to 2.40 |
| Best for | Small groups and tight pickups | Most corporate and school groups, airport runs with suitcases |
The one exception to headcount: if 16 to 23 people each bring a check-in suitcase, book a coach. The minibus runs out of luggage room before it runs out of seats. Hourly hire has a 4-hour minimum on every size.

Bus Sizes and Capacity: FAQs
Straight answers on seats, sizes, and luggage. If yours is not here, message us on WhatsApp.
Singapore Bus Charter runs four sizes: a 23-seater minibus, a 45-seater coach, a 49-seater coach, and a 50-seater coach. The 50-seater is the largest single vehicle available. For groups over 50 we combine coaches on one booking.
We do not run an exact 40 seater. Our 45-seater coach seats 40 with room to spare and starts from SGD 100 per trip. Luggage is what to check: its hold takes about 35 large bags. Send your bag count with the headcount and we confirm the luggage fit when we quote.
There is no 30 seater in our fleet. For 24 to 45 passengers the 45-seater coach is the right vehicle, and it costs only slightly more than a smaller bus would. Two 23-seater minibuses are an option if your group needs separate pickup points.
Our smallest vehicle is the 23-seater minibus, which covers any group up to 23 people, so a 10 seater or 20 seater booking rides in that. Because you charter the whole vehicle rather than paying per seat, a part-filled 23-seater is still the cheapest way to move a group of 10 to 20.
The 50-seater coach, which is the largest single vehicle in our fleet. It carries the most passengers in one vehicle, at roughly SGD 2.40 per head when full. The 45-seater is still the cheapest per head at about SGD 2.22. There is no 52, 54, 60 or 70-seater coach in the fleet, so larger groups travel in two or more vehicles.
We deploy two or more coaches on a single booking, with one point of contact and coordinated arrival times. Tell Singapore Bus Charter your headcount and we will work out the most cost-effective combination. Groups of 200 to 500 people are moved the same way, at roughly one coach for every 45 to 50 passengers.
Roughly 15 large bags in the 23-seater, 35 in the 45-seater, and about 40 in the 49-seater and the 50-seater. The coaches have underfloor luggage holds suitable for full-size suitcases. See our luggage guide for airport-transfer specifics.
The 45-seater coach, at about SGD 2.22 per person when full, just ahead of the 49-seater at about SGD 2.24 and the 50-seater at about SGD 2.40. The 23-seater works out to around SGD 3.70 per head because the cost is spread over fewer seats.
Yes. Every seat across the Singapore Bus Charter fleet has a seatbelt, which is a mandatory LTA requirement, and all vehicles are fully air-conditioned and maintained to LTA roadworthiness standards.
Usually yes, subject to availability. If your headcount shifts, contact us as early as you can and we will move you to the right coach. Changes a few days before the trip are normally straightforward.
In Singapore, bus and coach are often used for the same thing, but a coach usually means a full-size vehicle with high-back seats, air-conditioning and a luggage hold under the floor, like our 45, 49 and 50-seaters. A minibus is the smaller 23-seater, with a compact luggage compartment instead of a deep hold. A bus charter, also called bus rental or bus hire, means booking the whole vehicle with a professional driver for your group, priced per trip or per hour rather than per seat.
A wheelchair ramp can be arranged on request on all four sizes, the 23-seater minibus and the 45, 49 and 50-seater coaches. Tell us at booking, and say whether the chair is a foldable manual one or motorised, because a motorised chair needs a size and weight check first.
The 45, 49 and 50-seater coaches have reclining seats, and there is a microphone and PA system on board for tours and school trips. None of the vehicles carry wifi, USB charging points or a toilet, and every seat has a seatbelt and air-conditioning.
Coach rental with Singapore Bus Charter starts from SGD 100 per trip for a 45-seater, SGD 110 for a 49-seater and SGD 120 for a 50-seater, or from SGD 60, 70 and 80 per hour with a 4-hour minimum. The price includes the driver, fuel, ERP and parking, with no GST added. Groups of 23 or fewer can take the 23-seater minibus from SGD 85.
