TESTIMONIALS
Don’t just take our word for it; hear from our satisfied clients who have turned their travel dreams into reality with Car Rentals Rwanda
Our car’s fuel pomp broke down (it aslo broke once in my own car, so it happen and there is nothing to worry about) while a trip in Akagera National Park, so quite long way from Kigali, and also we were on Camping in the center of the park, we get new car as replacement in about 5/6 hours, which was even better than previous without any extra costs.
I sincerely recommend this rental company; they didn’t let me down in a difficult situation, which speaks best of them.
Stay safe Guys and thank you once again!
By far the most professional and punctual rental company I have dealt with since being in Rwanda!
Jacob was very knowledgeable and offered assistance/advice about a variety of questions.
The fares were fair for pick up in Kigali and drop-off in Kampala (4WD Toyota 600$ rent + 150$, very good for Akagera Park) and the car was brought to our hotel to start the adventure. The car was in great condition and for crossing the border all the papers were already prepared so the procedure just took a few minutes (marks on some papers..).
Cashless payment was a great option and without any problem. Defninite recommendation and thanks for the great adventure!
1) We first rented a Hyundai Santa Fe car and upon our request Joe immediately replaced the front tires.
2) Then, the car having a problem en route, he immediately sent a replacement car (Kia Sorrento model) at night while we were in Musanze (in the north of the country).
3) He agreed to let us have the car for an extra half day at no charge.
We drove with family 11 days around the country, main roads, dust roads, everything.
The car provided was perfect!
Thank you Joe!
I would recommend this company happily.
The service is very professional and the cars are in a very good condition.
The driver was very fine and have the advantage to be also a guide.
My experience in Rwanda was amazing thanks to this rental company.
On the advice of a colleague, I contacted Joe by Whatsapp. The booking process was simple and the car was waiting for us directly outside the airport.
Vehicle in good condition!
Five well-deserved stars!
