Which Vehicles Are Usually Available Same Day
- Toyota RAV4 (various years) — most commonly available
- Toyota Corolla / Vitz sedan — almost always available
- Hyundai Tucson — often available
- Land Cruiser Safari and Prado — sometimes available, book early if possible
- Minibus (12-seater) — depends on existing bookings, call to confirm
