Africa on Wheels' sole aim is to make sure you have a great vacation! That's why our fleet is carefully maintained. The agency specializes in 4 × 4 vehicles with 4-wheel drive, or with a tent on the roof, because even though Namibia's road network is reputed to be one of the best on the continent, and the tracks are of very good quality, it's more comfortable and safer to opt for better grip with a 4 × 4, Bettina confided to us. If you leave the country, be sure to inform your tour operator and make sure you are properly insured.

We rented a Toyota LandCruiser HJ79 from Africa on Wheels with a 2p and a 3p rooftop tent during the whole month of August 2023. The car was in perfect condition and could, without any issues, conquer any type of terrain. Included in the rental price was a free transfer to and from the airport. When you pick up the vehicle, you will receive a briefing about the car and the tents etc. (which takes about 1-1.5 hour). Africa on Wheels can provide the necessary documents for border crossings, and can help with satellite phone rental if you need one. I believe camping is the best way to really experience Namibia, and AoW provides you with all the equipment you need. Plus, their prices are very competitive in comparison with other rental companies in Windhoek. I only have 2 negative points : First, the tent zippers were very tough since the beginning of our rental and at a certain point during our trip one of them even broke, so we had to sew a towel over part of the mosquito mesh. And secondly, the temperature of the fridge in the vehicle sometimes went above 10° C, so we had to plug it into the campsites' electricity. Although I'm sure AoW would have helped us if we had called, these were very minor issues and we were able to temporarily fix them ourselves. After all, problems like that are inevitable during a 1-month trip and are part of the adventure! Thanks to AoW we had an incredible trip through Namibia and the Kgalagadi!

Update:
After the initial problems the owners were quite helpful and offered a fair compensation for our troubles. We also received a new car.

-> I would come back here.

Disappointed. We paid for two 4x4 full price. We got old cars with +200.000 km. Probably more than 6 years old.

In 2 days we have already the 3rd problem with both cars and needed to go to a garage. It feels like we spend more time fixing the cars instead of actually using it.

Let's see what else happens over the next few days ...

Our group rented three 4*4' with rooftents. Cars were nice Toyota Hilux with all the camping gear we needed. The whole proces of collecting the car was smooth. One of the cars had an aircon problem when we were 350km away from Windhoek but the company sent a mechanic who was there the next morning at 8:30 to do a repair. Great service! Big thanks!

Absolut guter Service. Infolge Ausfall der Klimaanlage an unserem Fortuner wurde uns innerhalb von 2 Tagen ein gleichwertiges Ersatzfahrzeug gestellt. Dies in der Grootberg Lodge, mehr als 500km von der Basis in Windhoek entfernt. Vielen Dank nochmals auf diesem Weg. Peter
