Safaris & tours

Where the car takes you.

Gorillas and golden monkeys in the north, the Big Five in Akagera, chimps and canopy walks in Nyungwe. Permits, park fees and lodges handled with the vehicle.

Where to sleep

Hotels in the city, tented camps in the hills.

We hold rooms at the places we would stay ourselves, and we book them at the operator rate — so the lodge, the permit and the car arrive as one quote.

Common questions about hiring in Rwanda

Is delivery really free anywhere in Rwanda?

Yes — we deliver and collect the car anywhere in the country at no charge: the airport, your hotel, or as far as Karongi and Rubavu. The car arrives with a full tank.

What is included in the daily rate?

Unlimited kilometres in-country, insurance, roadside support and a full tank at handover. Fuel on the road, park fees and permits are quoted separately.

How do I pay, and how much to reserve?

30% holds the vehicle and lets us buy permits the same day. Pay by card, mobile money or bank transfer. No payment is taken online through the site.

What insurance is included, and what is the excess?

Every rental includes comprehensive insurance and roadside support. The refundable $500 deposit covers the excess on self-drive hires and is returned when the car comes back as it left. Full terms are on our insurance and damage policy page.

What if the car breaks down on the road?

Call or WhatsApp the office — we answer 6am to 10pm, seven days. Roadside support is included, and we arrange a replacement vehicle if the car cannot continue.

How far in advance should I book?

As soon as your dates are fixed. Cars are usually available at short notice, but gorilla permits and park lodges sell out in the dry seasons (June to September, December to February).

Do you offer monthly or long-term rates?

Yes. Weekly and monthly hire comes at reduced rates for expatriates, consultants and projects, with servicing and a replacement vehicle handled by our own workshop.

Tailor made

Tell us the days you have. We will build the route.

Gorilla trekking, chimp tracking, birding, coffee farms, Kigali's memorials and markets — sequenced so you are never driving at dusk.
