Listed passenger figures are maximums from our fleet list; usable luggage space falls as seats fill, so tell us the number of large bags. Vehicles are allocated by class. A specific model or variant is guaranteed only if your written confirmation names it. Photos are representative of each model, not of the specific vehicle you will receive.
Which vehicle class should I ask for?
Suggested: Executive 4x4 SUV or Executive van
An executive SUV suits most individual travellers; a van gives more room for luggage.
A suggestion, not a booking or a statement of availability. Your written quote confirms the vehicle, seating and luggage space.

Fleet questions, answered.

A Toyota Hiace or Nissan Urvan minibus suits groups of this size on paved roads. For rough routes, we can pair a minibus with a Land Cruiser.
Yes. The Land Cruiser is our main vehicle for embassy work, NGO field missions and any route with unpaved or highland sections. It always comes with a professional driver.
Yes. Every vehicle in the fleet, including trucks, is supplied with a vetted, licensed driver. Self-drive is not offered.
Yes, with a driver, through the separate freight enquiry. Listed classes run from the Isuzu NPR (3–4 t) through the Fuso (4–6 t) and Isuzu FSR (5–7 t) to the heavy-duty Sino; the legal payload of the specific truck is confirmed in the quote.
Tell us your route, dates, number of passengers and luggage, and we will recommend a vehicle in your written quote. As a rule, paved city work suits smaller vehicles, while national parks and mountain roads need a Land Cruiser.
