Experience Africa

Your hire car will allow you to see the best of Africa. Travel from the old Arab cities of North Africa, through the enormous Sahara desert, dense jungles and great Game parks in South Africa. See the beautiful country of Morocco, full of ancient markets, deserts, and fascinating people. Visit Morocco and see the famous medieval cities of Marrakesh and Fez, and be sure to spend some time exploring the impressive Kasbahs located throughout the country.

Head over to Egypt, in the northeast corner of the continent, where you will find more great places to explore. Collect a car hire in Cairo and explore the pyramids and ancient structures, or perhaps just head on a scenic drive along the Nile River, or the shoreline of the Red Sea.

The southern parts of Africa have their own unique atmosphere and attractions, and definitely worth a visit. On the west coast you can visit Namibia, a country with some of the largest undeveloped and protected areas of land in the world, perfect for some true exploring. Or perhaps head to the very tip of the continent and see the sights of South Africa. Collect a hire car in Johannesburg and Cape Town, which are always popular with travellers, and where you will also be able to visit some of the best wildlife refuges in the world, such as Kruger National Park.
