Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

A rental car typically costs 23$ a day. However, the costs start at 8$ per day and can go as high as 94$ 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.

There are several insurance tiers available. The various insurance categories in Addis Ababa are described as follows:

  • Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) - It restricts the customer's liability throughout the rental period and establishes the maximum sum that the customer will be required to pay in the event of damages.
  • Theft Protection (TP) - If your automobile is stolen, this waiver reduces your liability to the vehicle's deductible/excess amount (proof required are a police report and the car keys). TP is typically included in the cost of renting a car.
  • Third Party Liability (TPL) - often referred to as Supplemental Liability Insurance, Extended Protection, Liability Protection, etc., covers both material and intangible losses caused to other people's vehicles, property, and even medical costs.

Unlimited third-party liability insurance is required in Addis Ababa and is automatically bundled into the cost of all car rentals. Don't forget to carry evidence of insurance if you are traveling with your own vehicle.

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.

Choose a car based on what you want to do on your trip. Small cars like the Opel Corsa or Toyota Aygo can be used to get around the city and its surroundings.
The Mercedes C Class is the most popular car in the Standard category. Its starting price is 23$ per day from EAST COAST, and its rating average is 9 based on more than 1000 customer reviews. Opel Mokka from EUROPCAR is the most reasonably priced rental vehicle in Addis Ababa. Just 24$ per day is the cost.
Most of the rental cars in Addis Ababa are manual. Automatic cars cost more to rent, and if your license only lets you drive an automatic car, you won't be able to rent a stick shift car.

Only a specific car type, not a specific brand or model, can be guaranteed by the local rental car agencies. Rental car agencies carry vehicles in the same category from numerous different brands. The identical attributes that were certified at the time of the reservation ought should be present in these vehicles.The various car classes are described as follows:

Major car rental agencies are slowly starting to accept debit cards, but you should verify this before making a reservation because it remains the exception rather than the rule.
