Front view
Travelling with family or VIP guests? The Alphard is a lounge on wheels. Forget cramped taxis: give your parents, children or business partners business-class comfort from the moment they land.
Seven or eight seats
We run the Alphard in two versions. The seven-seater has two reclining captain seats in the middle row, for the most comfortable ride. The eight-seater has a middle bench instead, so one more person travels with you. Tell us how many are travelling and we'll match the version to your group.
The first-class family cabin
Generous legroom and multi-zone air conditioning keep everyone comfortable, whether you're stuck in Nairobi traffic or on a long drive upcountry.
Made for airport transfers
Power sliding doors make loading luggage and helping elderly relatives in and out effortless. It's the go-to vehicle for JKIA arrivals and city tours.
Always with a chauffeur
The Alphard is only available with one of our professional, vetted chauffeurs: KES 4,000 a day within Nairobi, or KES 5,000 a day outside Nairobi, on top of the daily rate. On trips away from Nairobi you also cover your driver's food and overnight accommodation. Read our chauffeur standards.
Alphard or another family car?
- The seven-seat Mazda CX-8 and the Toyota Noah family minivan can both be self-driven.
- The Toyota Prado and Land Cruiser V8 add four-wheel drive for long drives upcountry.
- For a bigger group, such as a wedding party, look at the Toyota Coaster.

Toyota Alphard hire: questions
How many people does the Toyota Alphard seat?
Seven or eight, depending on the version. The seven-seater has reclining captain seats in the middle row; the eight-seater has a bench there instead. Tell us how many are travelling and how much luggage you have, and we'll suggest the right one.
Can I drive the Alphard myself?
No. The Alphard always comes with one of our chauffeurs, who drives you to airport transfers, events and city tours. A chauffeur costs KES 4,000 a day within Nairobi or KES 5,000 a day outside Nairobi on top of the daily rate, plus your driver's food and overnight accommodation on trips away from Nairobi.
Can I book the Toyota Alphard from abroad?
Yes. Most of our clients book from the USA, UK, Europe and the UAE, and your car is confirmed before you fly. Pay a refundable reservation deposit within 2 hours of booking (we send a card payment link, or M-Pesa details by WhatsApp, phone or email), then the balance when you see the car, by M-Pesa, bank transfer, credit card or cash. Free cancellation until the car is handed over.
Can you deliver the Toyota Alphard to JKIA?
Yes. Share your flight details and we track your flight. The evening before you land we send your driver's name and number, and the driver greets you in arrivals with a sign bearing your name and the car. We also deliver to hotels and homes in Westlands, Kilimani, Karen and across Nairobi. Delivery and collection cost KES 1,000 each way.
Deposit: when your money comes back
With one of our chauffeurs driving there is no security deposit and no Excess Fee for Damage.
