Between a 7-seater and a full bus sits the van — room for a group and their luggage in one easy vehicle. Here’s what we hire, from the Sienna to the Mercedes Sprinter.

Some trips fall between the cracks — too many people or too much luggage for a 7-seater, but not enough to fill a big bus. That’s where a van comes in. From the family-sized Toyota Sienna to the spacious Mercedes Sprinter and the 14-seater Hiace, vans carry a group and their bags in one comfortable, manageable vehicle. We hire them with professional drivers for airport groups, tours, events and more.
Why hire a van
A van’s advantage is space in both dimensions — seats and cargo. Where a full 7-seater runs out of boot room, a van swallows suitcases, equipment or event kit alongside the passengers. For a group arriving at the airport, a touring party, or an event that needs people and gear moved together, it’s the practical choice — one vehicle, one driver, everyone and everything aboard.

Frequently asked questions
Can I hire a van in Ghana?
Yes. We hire people carriers and vans — the Toyota Sienna, the Mercedes Sprinter and the 14-seater Hiace — with professional drivers, for groups and luggage.
How much does a van or Sprinter cost to hire in Ghana?
A 14-seater Hiace or Sprinter is around GH₵ 1,600/day with a driver (GH₵ 900 for an airport transfer). The Sienna people carrier is quoted on request.
What's the difference between a van and a bus?
A van (up to 14 seats) is nimbler and reaches tighter places; a 30-seater Coaster or coach carries larger groups. For 15 or more passengers, step up to a bus — see our bus-sizing guide.
Are vans good for airport groups?
Yes — a van moves a whole arriving party and their luggage in one trip rather than splitting across taxis. See our group airport transfer guide.
Do vans come with a driver?
Yes, vans and Sprinters are hired with a professional driver, which suits group transfers, tours and events.
