Yes, you can absolutely rent a bus in Florida in 2026, ranging from small 12-passenger shuttles to 57-passenger luxury motorcoaches. For groups of 14 passengers or fewer, you can typically rent a "non-CDL" (Commercial Driver's License) van or small bus and drive it yourself, provided you meet the rental agency's age and insurance requirements. However, for any vehicle designed to carry 15 or more passengers, Florida law and most national rental companies require a driver with a valid CDL with a Passenger (P) endorsement. In 2026, the most popular option for tourists in Orlando or Miami is a charter bus rental, which includes a professional, vetted driver. This is highly recommended for navigating Florida's heavy highway traffic and complex theme park parking. Rental costs in 2026 are transparent but vary by season; you should expect to provide proof of significant commercial liability insurance if you are opting for a "dry" rental (vehicle only) without a provided driver.
