If you receive a token amount paid as a travel allowance

If you receive a token amount paid as a travel allowance that could not reasonably be expected to cover your costs for accommodation, meals and incidental travel expenses, it is not accepted as being a travel allowance. As a result, you must show the total amount you receive on your tax return. You must also keep records to show the full amount you spent.
