Car rental from Lagos to Cotonou with a driver means a Sienna (6 to 7 passengers), Hiace (14 to 18) or Sprinter. The route is about 130km and takes 3 to 5 hours via the Seme border. You get a fixed quote before you pay.
Choosing well
For a small group, a car or people carrier with a driver is more comfortable than a bus and easier at the border. Look for:
Fleet
Ask us to confirm the exact vehicle for your date when you request a quote. See Sienna rental in Lagos, Hiace: Lagos to Cotonou and Sprinter: Lagos to Cotonou.
Route knowledge
Document requirements for crossing into Benin Republic vary by nationality and can change. Confirm current requirements with the relevant embassy or immigration authority as soon as your date is set, and make sure every passenger has done the same. One missing document can hold up the whole vehicle. See the Seme border crossing guide.
Self-drive
Hiace, Coaster and Sprinter bookings include a professional driver. Self-drive is offered only for the Sienna. For a cross-border trip we recommend a driver who knows the Seme crossing, and you can confirm with us whether a self-drive Sienna can cross for your dates.
