There is no better way to see everything Gaborone has to offer than by getting behind the wheel of your Avis rental car. Stop spending your vacation waiting on the bus, or wasting money here and there with ride-shares or taxis. When you have access to your own vehicle, you can drive wherever you want to go, when you want. Make your next getaway to Botswana even better with an Avis car rental.
With everything to do and see in and around Gaborone, you'll be wanting to explore more than just your hotel room while on your trip. Whether you have to have dinner at the restaurant that has received rave reviews across town or check out some of the local hot spots, you'll need your own auto to see as much as you can during your getaway. Wherever you drive to in Gaborone, if you want to get the most out of your time in the city, having your automobile is key.
We work with the top companies in the business. The first rental car company to be located in an airport, Avis has over seventy years of providing rentals to travelers from all over. With over five-thousand locations worldwide and an assorted fleet of vehicles, Avis is sure to provide you a great experience from start to finish.
We try to get you the best price, whether you book. However, getting your car ahead of time can help keep spending low. Be sure to keep the car under one driver's name and read the mileage policy to avoid any surprise fees.
Make sure to bring credit card, as well as your driver's license.
Avis's minimum age to rent a car in Gaborone is 21. Make sure to review Avis's policy, as there could be added fees if you are under 25 or for higher category cars in particular.
That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Gaborone. Economy or compact cars are easier to park and ideal for short drives. If you are traveling with coworkers, then a SUV or mid-size vehicle will have enough room for all of you and be a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a little luxury on their Gaborone vacation can choose the premium category to get a car like a Mercedes C-Class or Audi A4 or similar.
You are required to have insurance before you rent a car in Botswana. Although many of the major card issuers, like MasterCard or Visa, provide some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, you may not be covered if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Additionally, as a U.S. citizen, you can also book Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.
Avis does require a deposit when you book your rental. Avis will block the deposit on your credit once you book your vehicle for your trip to Gaborone. Please note that the deposit will vary greatly depending on the make and model of the vehicle.
We encourage a full to full policy. You should receive your car with the needle at "F". If you return the rental with less than the amount it was given to you, most companies will charge a premium to top it back off. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Avis. Stations close to airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.
Gaborone certainly has its charms, but you may want to hit the road 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 vehicle at another location. However, there is typically an additional fee when you opt for one-way.
With so much to do and see in Gaborone, having access to a set of wheels lets you explore at your own pace. When you're ready to explore more of Botswana, you can go wherever you like, without trying to signal for a taxicab or sign up for a ride-share.
