Toyota Wish for Hire in Nairobi
A Toyota Wish for hire in Nairobi costs KES 9,000 ($90) a day with a driver. The Toyota Wish is an economical 1800cc station wagon with 7 seats. As a result, it suits family trips, small groups, airport transfers with bigger luggage and light cargo runs.
Bamm Tours offers the Wish in Nairobi and in five other towns across Kenya. This guide therefore covers the hire price, what it includes, how many people it really fits and when another car makes more sense.

How Many People Fit in a Toyota Wish?
The Wish seats up to 7 passengers. Because it is smaller than a van, a full car leaves less room for bags. So the comfortable load depends on your luggage as much as your headcount.
For a family or a small team with bags, the Wish works well. However, if seven adults all have airport suitcases, a bigger 7 seater van is the safer choice. Therefore, tell us your bag count when you book, and we will size the vehicle correctly. If you are travelling with young children, you can also ask for baby car seat hire.
Why Hire a Wish?
Clients usually choose the Wish because it sits between a saloon and a van. So here is what stands out:
1. Extra seats. It moves a bigger group than a saloon, for only a little more money.
2. More boot space. Its bigger boot also suits airport luggage and small cargo.
3. Higher ride. It sits higher than a saloon, so upcountry roads feel easier.
4. Lower cost than a van. Moreover, it costs KES 1,000 a day less than a Toyota Voxy or Noah.
5. Flexible hire. Finally, you can hire it for a day, a week or longer. For longer terms, see long term car rental.
Wish Self Drive or With a Driver
You can hire the Wish either way. Within Nairobi, the KES 9,000 rate already includes a professional driver, so you can rest or work on the way.
On self drive, you need a valid Kenyan licence or an International Driving Permit, plus a national ID or passport. In addition, you must be aged 29 to 70 with at least 4 years of driving experience. Self drive also runs for a minimum of three days and needs a refundable deposit. For the full conditions, read our self drive guide.
Wish Hire Outside Nairobi
Besides Nairobi, we offer the Wish in Mombasa, Nakuru, Eldoret, Nanyuki and Kisumu. We also cover towns near Nairobi, such as Thika, Kiambu, Machakos and Kitengela.
Upcountry family visits are a common reason to hire one, since everyone travels together with their bags. However, the Wish is not built for rough tracks or game drives. For those trips, we therefore recommend one of the vehicles below or a safari van. In Nanyuki, most hires also come with a driver, since self drive is limited there.
Wish or Another Car?
If the Wish is not free on your date, or it does not fit your trip, these are the closest options. Each rate is per day with a driver within Nairobi, and fuel is excluded.
A. Toyota Voxy or Noah: KES 10,000. Both give you sliding doors and a bigger body, so they suit a full group with bags.
B. Toyota Axio or Fielder: from KES 8,000. Choose one of these when you have four passengers or fewer.
C. Toyota Premio or Allion: KES 9,000. They cost the same as the Wish, but they give four passengers a more comfortable saloon.
D. Toyota RAV4: KES 10,000. It handles rougher roads better, although it seats fewer people.
E. Toyota Prado TX150: from KES 15,000. This is the one to pick for rough roads and long distances.
