Our customers rate us a 8.8/10 out of 31

Generally good

The staff at J'burg airport were efficient, if a little 'cool' (distant). Instructions, map, etc to get out of the airport and, worse where to get petrol to fill up before returning the car were not supplied unless requested. The car itself was excellent. I tried to send the following message to 121carhire ater receiving the summary invoice but I believe the message was 'undelivered': "My only query is the fuelling charge for 118.04. We filled up at the Engels petrol station about 2 km from the airport before returning the car, so I have my suspicions about 118 rands-worth of petrol apparently needed after our return. Otherwise the car was faultless and we greatly enjoyed a very educational and interesting 10 days touring." Thank you. Peter Turnbull

Car Hire at Fes Airport

The 121 Carhire site was easy to use and provided us with a good range of car options at the most competitive rates. It was easy to print out the voucher and I liked the ability to take out the excess insurance later on, again at a competitive rate. I would have liked to see which car rental company my car was coming from before I confirmed my booking. When I printed off my voucher I hadn't heard of the company being used. I needn't have worried though, as the whole process worked well, the car was as advertised and we were on our way in no time at all. I wouldn't hesitate to use 121 Carhire again.

Morocco Trip

WE hired two cars - did not get what we had booked but were happy. One was a bit of an upgrade as well. Would have liked to have known more explicitly, beforehand, the waiver options details. The pick up took a bit of bureaucratic paperwork as would be exepected in such a country but all went ok. The cars were in very good condition - the GPS was a bit of a failure as seemed to only work in the bigger cities. We did a full circuit from Marrakesh to Skoura to Hassilabied, to Fez, to Meknes, to Casablanca and reutned to Marrakesh. We were given contact information in case of emergencies. Return was quick - we parked the cars at the airport, went to the booth and they immediately inspected the cars then wished us a happy flight home. What could be easier.

Location information for Stellenbosch

The town of Stellenbosch lies 50kms east of Cape Town. It is South Africa's second oldest town and resides along the banks of the Eerste River. Visiting nearby attractions including vineyards and sport venues can be arranged through a car rental in Stellenbosch Downtown. Having a rental car allows you to see more of the area and visit places that buses or taxis might not go to or it would be costly to ask the driver to go there.

The closest international airport to Stellenbosch is Cape Town International Airport. Located 35 minutes away, it is the second largest airport in South Africa and acts as a hub for South African Airways. It is equipped with five terminals, shopping, restaurants and car rental agencies.

Travellers can explore this historical town by taking a bus, train, or car rental in Stellenbosch Downtown. Visiting Cape Town can be accessed through both the N1 and N2 highways. However, taking the N1 highway at night is considered to be a safer option. The MetroRail also runs through Cape Town, yet it is known to be quite busy during the morning and evening.

Stellenbosch attracts many university students, making this town a prime spot for exciting nightlife. During the day, you can embark on a walking tour of the town and glance at its colonial Dutch architecture. Tours are open during the weekdays and take place at 11:00 and 15:00. There are many more tours available, most of which run throughout the year and can be arranged at the airport or your hotel.

Due to its rich vineyards, wine tours in this region have become extremely popular. Using a cheap car rental in Stellenbosch Downtown will make it easy to tour the Cape Winelands and other nearby wine estates. Sampling the wine is available, but remember not to take the rental car!

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Car-Rentals.com the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

Our rates are all-inclusive. Our reservation department will inform you in advance should additional costs apply. You can always cancel your booking free of charge if you do not agree (this must be done at least 48 hours prior to the start of the car hire period).

 What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
