Minibus Car Rental in Bulgaria
When a minivan is not quite large enough for the whole group, our car rental in Bulgaria fleet includes two 8+1 passenger minibuses built for exactly that situation.
The Volkswagen Caravelle T7 8+1 Automatic is the seventh generation of the well-known Transporter series, fitted with a 2.0 TDI diesel engine producing 150 hp and an 8-speed automatic gearbox. At just over 5 metres long and under 2 metres tall, it still fits into most underground car parks.
The Renault Trafic 8+1 Automatic runs a 2.0 dCi diesel engine with automatic transmission and offers the same nine-seat capacity at a more affordable daily rate, making it a practical choice when budget matters more than badge.
Both models carry a full-height luggage compartment behind the last row of seats, and folding that row down opens up considerably more space for cases, boxes, or equipment.
A standard category B driving licence is enough to drive either minibus, since neither exceeds the weight limit that would require a special licence category.
Every minibus comes with automatic transmission as standard, along with air conditioning, an onboard computer, and a full set of safety systems.
Both vans include a touchscreen infotainment system, parking sensors, and a full suite of driver-assistance features as standard equipment.
Who Our Minibuses Are Right For
Hotels and travel agencies often rent a minibus to move guests between the airport, the hotel, and local excursions without splitting the group across several cars.
Sports clubs and choirs travelling to a match or a performance value the nine-seat capacity for keeping the whole team or ensemble together on one vehicle.
Companies picking up business delegations through Sofia Airport use a minibus to collect several colleagues and their luggage in a single trip.
Large families or groups of friends travelling to the coast or the mountains appreciate the extra luggage space over a standard minivan.
If nobody in the group wants to drive, our car with driver service can be combined with either minibus for a fully managed journey.
The same combination works well for our Transfers service, which is popular for weddings, conferences, and other events where guests need moving between venues.
For weddings specifically, a minibus is usually booked for guest transport between the ceremony, the reception, and nearby hotels, while the couple travels separately in a dedicated wedding car.
If your group is seven people or fewer, our Minivan class is easier to manoeuvre and usually costs less per day, so it is worth checking both before you decide.
What Is Included in Your Rental
Every minibus booking includes full insurance and unlimited mileage, so a long transfer across the country never adds a separate charge.
Roadside assistance is available around the clock across Bulgaria, and a replacement vehicle is arranged quickly if a technical fault ever takes yours off the road.
Every minibus rental booked through SpeedyCars includes the following as standard cover:
- Full insurance and civil liability cover;
- Unlimited mileage across Bulgaria;
- 24-hour roadside assistance;
- A valid road vignette for the whole rental period;
- Winter equipment during the colder months.
Pick-up can be arranged at our Sofia office or delivered to a hotel or business address, with the full cost confirmed in writing before you collect the keys.
A security deposit is held on your card at pick-up and released automatically once the car is returned undamaged.
Card payment is accepted at pick-up, and a copy of the signed agreement is provided so you always have written proof of the terms.
Roof racks, ski racks, and child safety seats can all be added to either minibus for a small extra charge, agreed before you collect the vehicle.
A minibus also works well as a temporary transport solution for a company whose own vehicle is out of service for a week or two.
Current rates for both the Caravelle T7 and the Trafic 8+1 are listed side by side on our Prices page.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Choose the Caravelle T7 or the Trafic 8+1, then confirm your dates, pick-up point, and passenger count online or by phone. Our team prepares the vehicle in advance and can deliver it to Sofia Airport or a business address on request. At collection, you present your driving licence and ID, sign the agreement, and drive away.
Every quoted price already includes full insurance, unlimited mileage, and 24-hour roadside assistance across the country. There are no hidden extra charges once your booking is confirmed, and a valid road vignette is included for the entire rental period. Exact current rates for both models are listed on our Prices page.
No, a standard category B driving licence is sufficient for both the Caravelle T7 and the Trafic 8+1, since neither exceeds the weight limit for that licence category. If you would rather not drive at all, our car with driver service can be arranged alongside either vehicle.
The Caravelle T7 is the newer and more premium of the two, which is reflected in a somewhat higher daily rate. The Trafic 8+1 offers the same nine-seat capacity at a more affordable price, making it a popular choice for groups watching their budget. Both come with automatic transmission and the same standard insurance cover.
