Answers to popular questions

A rental car typically costs 21$ a day. However, the costs start at 9$ per day and can go as high as 93$ per day. The final price is directly influenced by the category of rental vehicles, the vehicle's features, your age, the date of booking, the length of the rental, etc.

When traveling, renting a car is nearly always a good decision because it allows you to see sites at your own pace and on your own schedule. It's always nice to be able to avoid crowded bus or rail times and go in the early morning or late at night if it suits you better.

It depends on the number of passengers and the amount of luggage each person is carrying. However, the following factors to think about before vacationing in Kinshasa:

Size: Our major suggestion is to choose a car that is not excessively wide. There are some tiny streets when you are driving through old towns or historical villages. It will be less stressful in a narrower automobile. Renault Twingo is the most well-liked model among economy classes in Kinshasa. From EUROPCAR the daily rate for this vehicle begins at 14$.

Power: Any size car will be able to travel the entire country. However, if you choose an engine that is not the smallest, it will be more comfortable in the highlands.

The rental car companies in Kinshasa can only guarantee a certain type of car, not an exact make or model. Car rental companies have cars from many different brands in the same category. These cars should have the same features that were confirmed at the time of the reservation. Here is an explanation of the various car classes:

Car rental models

You may be able to reserve a specific model in some cases. You will notice a special note next to the vehicle in the search results if such a possibility exists.

For online payments, we accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.
Please be aware that the local supplier will demand that you leave a security deposit for the car when you take it up. This manifests as a minimal amount (Excess + VAT) being put on the primary driver's credit card as a block. At the rental desk, you must have a credit card with you.
We will accept a debit card if purchase our Platinum Insurance plan for the duration of your rental period.
