What the RAV4 does well
- The lowest daily rate in our self drive fleet at USD 45
- Genuinely economical on fuel, which matters more than the daily rate on a long trip
- Compact enough for Kigali parking and tight neighbourhood streets
- Automatic transmission and air conditioning as standard
- Four wheel drive for gravel roads and the occasional wet section
- Five seats with a usable boot for two people on a two week trip
Where the RAV4 is the right call
Two travellers doing Kigali, Lake Kivu and a gorilla trek in the dry season will be entirely happy in a RAV4, and will save several hundred dollars over two weeks against a Land Cruiser.
Where it is not the right call: a full Akagera game drive programme on bush tracks, a trip in the heaviest rains of April, four adults plus luggage, or camping with a rooftop tent. For those, step up to the Prado or the Land Cruiser.

What is included
- USD 45 per day or USD 280 per week
- Comprehensive insurance and unlimited mileage inside Rwanda
- GPS navigation and offline map setup at handover
- Full to full fuel policy
- Free delivery and collection at Kigali airport or your hotel
- 24/7 roadside assistance
The alternatives at a similar price
The Kia Sorento at USD 50 per day gives you seven seats and a softer ride for five dollars more, which is worth it for a family of four or five. The Hyundai Tucson is also USD 50 per day with five seats. Both are compact SUVs in the same class rather than a step up in capability.

Toyota RAV4 Rental Rwanda: FAQs
How much is a RAV4 rental in Rwanda per day?
USD 45 per day or USD 280 per week, including comprehensive insurance, unlimited mileage inside Rwanda and free delivery in Kigali.
Is a RAV4 good enough for Rwanda roads?
For Kigali, the main highways and most lodge access roads in the dry season, yes. For Akagera game drive tracks, remote unpaved access roads or travel during the long rains, a Prado or Land Cruiser is the safer choice.
Is the RAV4 automatic?
Yes, our RAV4s are automatic with air conditioning, four wheel drive and GPS.
Can a RAV4 reach Volcanoes National Park?
Yes in normal conditions. The highway to Musanze is excellent and the final access roads are manageable in a RAV4 when dry. In the rains, upgrade to a Prado for the same route.
