Premium 12-seater Toyota HiAce passenger vans for rent across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and all Emirates. Flexible rental terms with professional RTA-licensed drivers or self-drive dry lease for family tours, corporate staff transfers, and airport pickups.
Take a closer look at our pristine 12 passengers fleet ready for immediate booking in Abu Dhabi.
Al Ihssan Buses Transport is Al Ihssan Buses Transport is based in Sharjah and runs buses to Abu Dhabi on daily and contract schedules, with over a decade of passenger transport experience.
Abu Dhabi is the capital, and its islands, industrial zones and airport are far apart, so any group movement has to be planned around distance. Hiring a 12 seater bus for rent in Abu Dhabi provides the ultimate balance between agile maneuverability and spacious passenger comfort. Unlike standard sedans or smaller SUVs that require multiple vehicles to transport medium-sized groups, a 12 seater bus consolidates your travel into a single, highly economical ride.
We run from our Sharjah base to Abu Dhabi on daily and contract schedules. These are the pickups we handle most often:
The 12 seater is the workhorse of group hire. It is small enough to park at a hotel entrance or a villa gate, yet large enough that a whole department, a wedding party or a tour group can arrive together. Rows are laid out with a clear centre aisle and a wide sliding door, so boarding is quick even with older passengers, and the air conditioning is sized for a full load in summer heat. In Abu Dhabi that covers arrivals at AUH, hops to Yas Island and Saadiyat, and client visits between Al Maryah Island and the Corniche.
Every 12 seater booking comes with a driver from our own payroll, so you never take the keys. That keeps the hire inside RTA passenger-transport rules, keeps insurance valid for everyone on board and means nobody spends the evening looking for parking. Drivers are uniformed, route-trained and speak enough English to sort out a gate change or a delayed flight without calling the office first. Each Toyota Hiace passenger van is cleaned before duty and serviced on a fixed schedule.
Flexibility is where this size earns its keep. Take it for five hours on a Tuesday, for a fortnight of site visits or on a twelve-month staff contract with the same driver every morning. Rates fall as the commitment lengthens, and a booking can step up to a larger vehicle mid-term if your headcount grows. Fuel, Salik and insurance sit inside the number you approve, so the invoice matches the quote. It carries twelve passengers with hand luggage, or nine to ten with large bags, and is popular with office teams, hotel guests and wedding parties. Need a different size? Compare the 10 seater or the 14 seater.

Yes. Al Ihssan Buses Transport provides both options. You can hire a 12 Seater Bus with an experienced, RTA/Abu Dhabi Roads & Transport Authority licensed driver for stress-free travel, or rent the vehicle on self-drive (dry lease) if you are a corporate company or a qualified individual with a valid UAE driving license.
Under the 'with fuel' (wet lease) option, all petrol or diesel fuel costs and road toll charges (Salik) are included in your agreed quotation with zero out-of-pocket costs. Under the 'without fuel' (dry lease) package, you pay only for the vehicle rental fee and are responsible for fueling the bus and toll gates based on your actual routes.
