1 day trip for Work - Paid for travelling time?

I am going to a different office with work tomorrow, based around 2 hours drive from where I live. I am required to be there for 9 and the meetings will last until 5.

I am not driving, but I will be expected to be at our office for 6:30am, and will probably not return until 7pm...

Should I be paid for 9-5? Or should I be paid for travelling time?
I have been told it should be the latter.

    depends,, many salaried people would not expext pay or TOIL unless it became regular.

    Minimum wage hourly paid, they have to pay otherwise it takes you below min wage.

    Ask: we'd be paid for travel time over and above our normal journey.
