Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Dakar?
Follow your own road in Dakar, with car rental prices starting at just $42 per day. That's based on prices found within the past seven days. With rates like this, it'll be a cinch to find a ride that suits your style.
What happens if I need to cancel my Dakar car reservation?
We get that flexibility on the road is important. That's why most prepaid bookings provide a total refund if canceled at least six hours ahead of pickup. It's a good idea to check your cancellation policy though as there are some exceptions. If there's nothing specified there, head to our Customer Service Portal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Dakar?
Dakar has plenty to keep you busy, but don't limit yourself to only one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the road to see what else awaits in the wider region. These are some great options:

  • Make tracks to Touba for an excellent sightseeing adventure. Roughly 110 miles from Dakar, it's home to lots of cool sights like Grand Mosque of Touba.
  • Situated 75 miles away, Lompoul is also a favorite with travelers. Allow time to get to Lompoul Desert while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love this thriving city.
  • Djoudj National Bird Sanctuary is 140 miles from Dakar and is one of the region's most spectacular nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Dakar with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to compare costs, offers and rental providers, and to check customer ratings. Bundle your Dakar car rental with hotel or flight bookings to save even more.
What do you need to rent a car in Dakar?
Be prepared to present your driver's license and a credit card at the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your selected rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of insurance.
What is the cheapest car rental in Dakar?
The lowest car rental rate in Dakar within the past seven days was $42 per day. The next best deal snapped up by happy travelers was $53. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dakar?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Dakar, so go on and extend your well-deserved vacation! Simply enter your trip details into our long-term car rental deals page and find your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Dakar car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Dakar rental providers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, be aware that some will charge extra costs. It's handy to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Dakar?
Get your road trip off to a safe start by choosing Expedia's collision damage protection. While there are many types of car rental insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for vandalism, accident damage and theft up to $35,000, as well as 24-hour emergency assistance. Don't wait until you arrive at the rental counter to insure your precious ride. Opt in to collision protection while booking your Dakar ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in Dakar with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Senegal, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive away. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
