Whatever meets your needs! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're with the family, or level up to a premium if it's sophistication you're after.

Affordable and with excellent mileage, they're a good fit for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn't require a whole lot of room. They're especially suited to city exploring. Slipping into tight parking spots will be a snap!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Capetown?
You need to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related requirements you should bear in mind before locking in your wheels in Capetown. If you're a young motorist, many rental outlets will charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of cars you can rent. The exact surcharge, and which ages it applies to, varies between suppliers. It's a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Capetown?
While booking conditions may differ between outlets, generally the essentials are a valid driver's licence and a credit card. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Capetown?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental car halfway through your holiday. Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and lock in a ride to call your own for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Capetown car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies located in Capetown. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, keep in mind that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental.
