Should you rent a 4x4 in Botswana?

Many visitors to Botswana go to see the incredible wildlife which resides in national parks such as the Moremi national park, the Chobe national park and the Okavango Delta. The latter is an incredible geological formation which is well worth seeing and is best accessed by car.

One of the more popular vehicles to hire in Botswana is an SUV and we have a great range to choose from including the Nissan Patrol, Toyota Rav4 and Daihatsu Terios. Our rental rates include collision damage waiver, theft waiver, insurance and taxes. As well as those we also include unlimited mileage and breakdown assistance in the unlikely event you were to suffer a breakdown or mechanical problem.
