Car Hire in Sea Point

Collecting in Sea Point

Our hub is on Main Road, at the Engen. Not an airport counter and not a call centre in another suburb — if you are staying on the Atlantic seaboard you can walk to us, and you will be driving away about ten minutes later.

Where to find us

Engen, 134 Main Road, Sea Point.

Straightforward to reach on foot or by taxi, with none of the one-way system, parking garages or luggage-hauling that comes with collecting a car in the middle of town.

You are on Beach Road within a minute of leaving.

What the handover involves

About ten minutes, start to finish
Payment is settled beforehand, so there is no paperwork waiting for you
We walk you around the car and answer whatever you want to ask
Bring your licence, your passport or ID, and the card you booked with
