Why Banana Island
A community that has outgrown the idea of getting around on foot
Banana Island is Lagos's most exclusive address — a reclaimed, gated island joined to the mainland by a single access bridge, its waterfront mansions and embassies set behind private walls and round-the-clock security. Getting anywhere starts with that one bridge, then joins the daily tide of traffic into Victoria Island and Marina. A dependable rental car, with a driver who already knows the checkpoint routine, keeps that single point of entry from becoming a daily holdup.
The expressway commute
Between Banana Island and Victoria Island, traffic on the Falomo-Bourdillon Road can swing from twenty minutes to two hours. A rental gives you control over departure times rather than relying on unpredictable public transport.
Security first, always
Every vehicle heading onto Banana Island passes a manned checkpoint at the bridge, and most compounds add a second layer of gate security. A rental booked with proper documentation and an assigned driver clears both without delay.
Business without the guesswork
Meetings for Banana Island residents happen mostly across the bridge in Victoria Island and Ikoyi, and a chauffeur who already knows the shortcuts around Old Ikoyi and Eko Atlantic saves real time on a working day.
Weekends built for the coast
Landmark Beach, Victoria Island and Elegushi Beach sit close enough for a spontaneous afternoon, provided the vehicle can handle the sandy approach roads and get everyone home comfortably.
Family errands, multiplied
School runs, shopping trips into Victoria Island and weekend visits to family across Lagos add up quickly. One reliable car covers all of it without the wear on a personal vehicle.
Airport journeys, timed properly
A trip to Murtala Muhammed International Airport from Banana Island needs a real time buffer for expressway traffic — something a driver who does the route regularly plans around.
Why ToTrip
A rental service that already knows the way to your estate gate
ToTrip Car Rental Services has served Lagos since well before Banana Island became one of the city's most exclusive addresses. That means the drivers assigned to this route already know which Banana Island Link Bridge junctions back up at 5pm, and which estate gates need a name confirmed in advance.
Vehicles that are actually inspected
Every car on the Banana Island rotation is serviced and checked before it leaves the yard — not just cleaned. That matters most on estate access roads that are harder on suspension than the expressway.
Drivers who know the shortcuts
Chauffeurs deployed to Banana Island are familiar with Old Ikoyi, Osborne Estate, Bourdillon Road and the Milverton Road back roads, so a booking doesn't turn into a live tutorial in local geography.
One price, stated upfront
The quote given on WhatsApp or by phone is the price charged at the end of the hire. No last-minute additions for estate delivery or a slightly longer route.
Delivery to your gate, not just the roundabout
Vehicles are brought to the estate address itself, with gate access coordinated in advance so security doesn't hold anyone up.

Client Reviews
What Banana Island clients say about ToTrip
★★★★★
Booked a monthly self-drive hire after moving to Dolphin Estate, and the car was delivered straight to the gate with no fuss. Renewing it every month has been the easiest part of settling in.

Amaka O.Resident — Dolphin Estate
★★★★★
Our estate association hired a Coaster bus for a members' outing, and the driver knew the Milverton Road back roads better than some of our own residents. Made the whole day much smoother.
T
Tunde A.Estate Association — Milverton Road
★★★★★
Living in Osborne Estate, the daily commute into Victoria Island used to eat into my mornings. A chauffeur who already knows the shortcuts changed that completely.
K
Kemi B.Corporate Client — Osborne Estate
★★★★★
We hired an SUV for a beach wedding photoshoot near Landmark Beach, and it handled the sandy access road without any drama. Delivery to our Banana Island Link Bridge address was right on time.
F
Folake & EmekaWedding Clients — Banana Island
★★★★★
As an expatriate new to Alfred Rewane Road, I wasn't sure what to expect from a local rental service. The Prado arrived clean and the paperwork was straightforward from the first call.
D
David R.Expatriate Client — Lagos Island
★★★★★
Booked a last-minute airport transfer from Old Ikoyi and the driver still arrived early enough to account for expressway traffic. That local knowledge is worth a lot.

A valid international driving permit alongside a passport is generally sufficient for self-drive hire by visitors and expatriates.

Is fuel included in the rental price?
