  • Fuel and Expenses: The cost includes fuel and the driver's accommodation and meals on multi-day itineraries.
  • Mileage Allowance: You receive an allowance of 150 kilometres per day. This is usually more than enough for typical touring days. Any additional distance is charged at a clear rate of USD 0.32 per extra kilometre.

Is the Toyota Aqua the Right Vehicle for You?

The Toyota Aqua is an excellent choice for small groups prioritising efficiency and comfort. However, if you are travelling with more than three people or have substantial luggage (such as surfboards or large suitcases), you should consider upgrading to a minivan, such as a Toyota Hiace or Nissan Caravan, which offers significantly more space. Conversely, if you are a solo traveller on a very tight budget and travelling light, a smaller standard car might suffice, though the Aqua's hybrid efficiency often makes it the smarter choice for longer island loops.
