+1 the minibus is still a bus. 

Here in my little town, they have the normal "bus" routes for people living in 
the town, going from rural bus stops down and around the train stations and 
schools. 

Then the city tourism board operates these slow, open-air, electric "busses" 
that are similar to a large golf cart for 12 or so people. It goes from tourism 
spot to tourism spot to the main train station. It looks like a "people mover" 
from Disneyland.

Perhaps a tag for the slow-moving routes serviced by these kind of devices is 
worth separating from a "bus in some way - but the line between microbus and 
bus is pretty small. 

A town nearby stopped all regular bus service and now uses two microbuses 
(high-ace vans) to do on-demand passenger service - but I would still call 
these busses and "bus routes". 

I think there should be some way to say "this is not a normal bus. It is a slow 
thing for sightseeing tourists - not what you are expecting compared to all the 
other "busses" (size, level or capacity differences aside) - it my not be in 
the route option, but by some bus=* subtag someone could suggest.
