Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Umkomaas car reservation?
No need to stress. You should be given a total refund if you notify us a minimum of six hours prior to the collection time. Your confirmation contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings will receive a refund though, so it's a good idea to read through the car's cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Umkomaas?
Minis are the smallest car available to rent, and they're usually the best on fuel too. This is why they're so popular with holiday makers in Umkomaas. Zip around the city's top sights — you'll be astounded at the parking spaces you can squeeze into. Prefer something with a bit more space? Take a look at our economy, full-size and standard options.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Umkomaas?
Generally, you need to be 18 years and over in Umkomaas. It should be noted that most companies will charge extra fees for young renters.

What side of the road do you drive on in Umkomaas?
If you hop behind the wheel in Umkomaas, you'll have to drive on the left. Take note that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider booking a vehicle with automatic transmission if it's your first time driving on the left.
