We strive to get you the best rates, no matter when you book. But reserving your car ahead of your visit can help keep spending low. Make sure to keep the car under one driver's name and go over the mileage policy to avoid any surprise fees.
Be sure to bring credit card, as well as your driver's license.
Avis's minimum age to rent a car in Francistown is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles (luxury, SUVs, etc.), may have an added fee if you are under 25. Make sure to review Avis's policy to find out what the total cost is before you book.
That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in Francistown. Compact or economy automobiles are great for short commutes and are easier to park. If you are traveling with family or friends, then a SUV or mid-size vehicle will have enough room for all of you and provide a more comfortable ride on longer trips. Those looking for a bit of luxury on their Francistown vacation can choose the premium category for a car like a Mercedes C-Class or Cadillac XTS or similar.
In Botswana you do need to have insurance before you rent. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa and MasterCard, give some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, you may not be covered if you book a luxury or larger vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.
Avis does require a deposit when you reserve your rental car. Avis will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your car for your trip to Francistown. Please be aware that the deposit will vary greatly depending on the model and make of the rental.
We recommend a full to full policy. You should receive your automobile with full tank, and you should bring it back it filled up. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Avis.
Francistown certainly has its charms, but you may want to take to the road again after you've checked off all the activities here.
Avis offers one-way rentals in most cases. You may find it easier to return your rental car at another Avis. However, there may be an additional charge when you choose one-way.
