Frequently asked questions

What types of cars can I rent in Africa?
Almost any type you like! We’ve got a fantastic range of rental options, from standard and economy cars to luxury premiums and SUVs. Small, sleek and cost-efficient, minis are the most popular car type in Africa. These spritely little rides are a wonderful choice for short trips around town.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Africa?
In most cases, the rules are 18 years of age and over in Africa. It’s important to note that most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers. Read the fine print before you book your ride, as different rules may apply between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you’re planning to rent a specialty vehicle or a larger car like an SUV, drivers may need to be older than 18.
What do you need to rent a car in Africa?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Africa, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. If you prefer not to take out the rental company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental provider.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Africa?
Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and then lock in a ride that suits. Whether you’re staying put in Africa or venturing beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an incredible rate.
Where can I find an Africa car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Africa providers will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Africa?
For a secure, stress-free adventure, add Expedia’s collision damage protection while booking your rental car. This insurance covers your vehicle against vandalism, accident damage and theft. It also provides 24-hour emergency help in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Africa ride with Expedia and save money and time at the rental desk.
