Good to know
Age requirements for rentals vary by supplier and even car type, so know the rules before you book. Some providers in South Africa may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you fall outside the typical age range, just uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.

Bring the right documents to make pick-up quick and easy. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no digital copies) and a second photo ID. Also keep a credit card handy to cover the required excess. If extra documents are required, they'll be listed in your booking.
Take your time getting acquainted with your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, test the brakes and turn signals, and get used to its handling before you set off. And don't forget to stick to the left side of the road in South Africa.
Make sure you follow the local speed limits. Usually that's around 55kph in built-up areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.
In South Africa, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you intend to have a few drinks, leave the driving to someone else or use public transport instead.
Aim to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a smoother run. 7am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
The South African rand (ZAR) is the currency you'll be using for everyday expenses and excursions. Pay with a debit or credit card when you can, but have some cash handy when electronic payments aren't an option.
