We recommend considering a 4x4 rental or SUV in Zimbabwe to minimise the risk of damage to the rental car from poor road conditions. A car hire excess insurance policy is also worth considering should you be unfortunate enough to damage the car.

Car crime can also be an issue and rental cars are not immune. We advise you to take advantage of the air conditioning and keep the windows up and doors locked. Never leave valuables in the car or on display and consider where you park your rental car.
