We have been in car hire for 23yrs and have won the  National Tourism Welcome Awards trophy for 2011 for service and are proud of it. In our eyes clients requirements always come first this is the reason they return.  Rates are always very competitive and we intend keeping them this way. We believe that it is important to support local businesses, in so doing finances remain in the Eastern Cape where it is needed for our benefit and the rest of the community.

This site was really built with you in mind and we hope you will find it useful. Hiring a car, particularly overseas, can seem a complicated business: different languages, laws, road rules and charges can make the whole process seem less than easy. However, with some simple explanations and advice, the experience can be totally pain-free. With agents you sometimes only pay a deposit, with the remainder of the booking paid at the counter or at the end of your holiday. It usually pays to book your car in advance to save money, and there is rarely any benefit in leaving it to the last minute. Always get a few quotes first from a number of car hire companies. Obviously the price will play a major part in your choice but also consider where you will pick up and drop off the car and any extra costs. The extras can sometimes cost as much as the car hire. Apart from the practical reason of wanting to start your journey with a full tank, it is also often cheaper to pay for fuel at a petrol station than pay for fuel through the car hire company. Additional drivers and surcharges for young or old drivers Decide who will be driving the car and if you add an additional driver expect to pay a surcharge. The minimum car hire age is normally 21, although if you are under the age of 25 you often have to pay an additional charge. If you are travelling with small children then you will have to pay for a child seat (infant and booster seats for children under 12 years old are mandatory in most countries in the EU). Hiring a ski rack with your car can help to save space. You might also need snow chains or winter tyres if there has been heavy snowfall at your destination, and in some counties this is a legal requirement. There is usually an initial grace period, then charges per hour for the first few hours and then per day. Ahead of returning the car, you can always call the car agent or hire company to extend your booking. Booking in advance usually gives you unlimited mileage, although if you wait until you get to the car hire counter to book your car there may be a mileage restriction with an additional charge per mile over the daily allowance.
