Top Tips for Hiring a Luxury Car in Cape Town
- Cape Town luxury car hire is a great way to acquire travel comfort and reduce your time on the road while touring the city. Cape Town is home to myriad attractions that are fun to explore, especially with a luxury car. For example, if you're travelling to the Mountain Table National Park, you may not find reliable public transport to get there. However, driving takes a little over 10min. The advantage of hiring a luxury car is even more apparent when shopping in the city. Buses take over 30min to get to The Victoria & Alfred Waterfront from the city centre. With a luxury car, the travel time is usually less than 10min. Moreover, you will have ample space to pack the goodies you buy.
- Cape Town International Airport, the primary airport in Cape Town, serves as the destination for flights into the city. You can easily hire a luxury car and go about your business on arrival. Of course, you can book in advance through KAYAK and find your vehicle ready for pick up on the ground floor. You can obtain a Cape Town luxury car hire near the Transport Plaza. Also, you may find representatives in front of the central terminal building. Some of the companies present at the airport include Europcar, Avis, Hertz, Bidvest, Tempest, Woodford, Thrifty, Sixt and First.
- It is fun to take a luxury car for a drive around Cape Town. Of course, using the car navigation system is vital to avoid getting lost. Notably, the city’s roads feature a gridlock system. Hence re-routing is easy. While aggressive driving is not typical in Cape Town, you are better off driving defensively in all parts of the city. Defensive driving is necessary because some cars in Cape Town may lack insurance coverage. If you come across a person driving carelessly, try not to over-insist that you were right to avoid a road rage situation.
- Traffic in Cape Town is usually light and easy to cope with throughout the day. However, you may notice increased congestion during morning and evening rush hours. If you hate spending too much time on the road, avoid driving your luxury car from 6:30 am to 8:30 am. Traffic builds up again around 4:30 pm but dwindles after about two hours around 6:30 pm. Most of the streets in Cape Town are one-way, and you may not have a chance to overtake them.
- 25% of our users found a luxury car hire in Cape Town for $180 or less
- Book your luxury car hire in Cape Town at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Pros:
The staff had to make efforts to explain the extra money they charge...and its very uncofortable to accept the explanation, and unacceptable, once I'd payed for the rental and insurance previously! It was a bad holiday begining... After this experience, I'm checking my VISA account all the time, to verify the expected refund. The drop off was ok.Cons:
You must change the way of doing business. More clear, transparent and balanced value for money. Ca'nt recomend Hertz! Hope Kayak as some usefull feedback to our total insatisfaction!6.0 Okay
