Before renting, verify what your travel insurance or credit card covers for rental vehicles in Gabon.

Decide whether to rent a GPS or use your smartphone for navigation; consider data costs if using mobile.

Some rentals may have mileage caps. Check the details to avoid extra fees if you exceed limits.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Gabon, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70
