Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Sometimes a person gets the feeling that service in general is going down the drain. Not only in SA. This morning I got to see that we still have plenty “shining stars”. Due to My poor planning... See more

Don't bother with this company - shockingly poor service. They have let me down at the last minute. I booked a car for my holiday in Ibiza 3 months ago. All was confirmed and we arrive tomorrow.... See more

Consistently excellent

I use National Car Rental consistently when I travel for business, which is as much as 3-4 times per month. I've called when my flight was coming in very late and they stayed open for me, and I've been upgraded to fantastic vehicles that suited my large family well when I've been on personal trips. Very good deals, great service.
