There are several important pieces of information that you should be aware of when you hire a car in Africa, and these will vary from region to region, but our representative will be happy to fill you in on any details for the particular region you are visiting. Check on the legal requirements for car hire in the African region you will be driving in - you will probably need an International Driving License in some countries, but we will advise you on that when you make your booking. Before you set out for any particular region, do check on the medical requirements. Malaria, Yellow Fever and a few other tropical diseases are still prevalent in certain regions, and it is wise to take the necessary precautions before you set out.

If you intend to cross a national border with your hire car, make sure that you have the correct papers when you pick up the vehicle. In fact, you should make sure that Car Hire 4 Less know your intended route when first making your booking. Africa is a volatile continent where inter-tribal war is still a real threat in some countries. Find out the state of a particular region from our representative when you make your reservation. Except for in the major built up areas, driving at night can be a hazardous occupation. There really are wild animals in Africa and hitting one can do an awful lot of damage to your hire car. Domestic animals such as sheep, goats and cattle can also be a hazard, particularly at night and even on some of the major roads.

Road conditions can leave much to be desired in many of Africa's poorer nations. Even the major roads can be in a bad state of repair. If you know that you're going to be driving through some of the more remote areas, make sure that the car you hire is up to Africa's poorer roads. It may be wise to think about hiring a 4 x 4 if you're going to travel through more remote areas and game parks. Finally, always be courteous to police, particularly at roadblocks.

If you are planning car hire in Africa from outside the continent, check up with the embassies of the countries you intend to visit before you make your booking. They will inform you of any health requisites, areas of possible unrest and so on. Car Hire 4 Less will provide you with information on local traffic laws in Africa when making your booking so that when you arrive to pick up your vehicle, you are prepared.
