How to Find the Cheap Car Hire Deal in South Africa
Here’s what you need to know to find the best car hire deal and start your journey smoothly upon arrival in South Africa
Allow extra time for car pickup
When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car hire companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car hire provider to let them know.
Prepare in advance for a smooth car pickup experienceChoose from reliable providers
Rest assured that you're booking with trusted providers. We partner with reputable car hire companies in South Africa that deliver high-quality service, reliable vehicles, and a commitment to your safety and comfort.
Explore trusted car hire options nowKnow how car hire duration affects pricing
In South Africa, car hire options are billed on a daily basis. Renting for over 24 hours will incur a charge for an additional day, so be sure to plan your hire duration to avoid extra costs.
Plan your car hire duration wiselyInspect the car before driving off.
Before driving away from South Africa , thoroughly inspect the car for any damage. Document any existing damage with photos or video to avoid disputes later on.
