What groups use the 10-seater Hiace for
- Corporate teams, board members and conference delegates
- JKIA airport transfers for families and visitors with luggage
- Weddings, funerals and family events upcountry
- Trips to Naivasha, Nakuru, Nyeri, Nanyuki and Machakos
- Coast trips to Mombasa, Diani, Watamu and Malindi
With fewer seats than a full 14-seater, the 10-seater gives each passenger more space and leaves room for bags, which matters on long trips and airport runs.
Choosing the right size
Up to 7 people with light bags fit in a Toyota Noah. For 11 to 14 people book our 14-seater Hiace, and for 15 to 16 the 16-seater. Bigger groups move to the 22-seater Toyota Coaster or Mitsubishi Rosa and the 33-seater Mercedes-Benz and Isuzu buses.
