Can I drive in Pilgrims Rest with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you'll likely need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car.

Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
