Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Cape Town Intl. Airport (CPT)?
Absolutely. Once you arrive at Cape Town Intl. Airport (CPT), you'll find the rental companies in front of the Transport Plaza and Central Terminal Building. Book the right ride with Dollar/Thrifty, Tempest Car Hire or First Car Rental. Avis and Capital are also worth looking into.
What happens if I need to cancel my Strand car reservation?
We know that flexibility is important. That's why many prepaid rentals give a complete refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before collecting the car. It's still good to check the cancellation policy though as there are some exemptions. If you can't see any details there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.

Premium, full-size, standard, compact ... You name it, we'll probably have it! But intermediate is the most booked rental category in Strand.

Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Strand?
While terms and conditions can differ between rental car outlets, generally the essentials are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. You don't need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.
