What types of cars can I rent in Paradise?

With excellent fuel economy, you’ll save on gas as you drive around the city’s top sights. These fun little rides aren’t the only options available though. Premium, compact, standard … You name it, chances are we’ll have it.

  • You’ll feel the energy of a city bursting with life the second you pull into Mossel Bay. Some 88 kilometres from Paradise, it has a ton of fantastic places to explore, such as Santos Beach.
  • Oudtshoorn, around 88 kilometres away, also promises a good time. Wondering what there is to see? Cango Caves is our top pick.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Paradise?
In Paradise, the requirement is usually 18 years of age and over. Most companies will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the home location.

What do you need to rent a car in Paradise?
Your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? In that case, you’re also likely to need proof of your own coverage. Rules may differ between providers, so be sure to read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Paradise?
If you’re renting a vehicle in Paradise, you’ll have to drive on the left-hand side of the road. Take note that the steering wheel will also be on the opposite side to what you’re familiar with. Consider booking a vehicle with automatic transmission to make things easier.

Yes. We partner with reputable companies that offer weekly and monthly holiday homes for many car categories. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every square inch of Paradise — or beyond!
Where can I find a Paradise car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking for a holiday home in Paradise, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the various holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be extra fees if you’re between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any surprise fees and charges at the holiday home counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
