Cheap Car Hire in Johannesburg
Car hire in Johannesburg is the best option for getting around as public transport is limited and there are sometimes attacks on the crowded services. Be aware of the possibility of car jacking, however, and lock the car doors when you get in, whilst also rolling up the windows - this also makes air con a must!
Johannesburg car hire offers the opportunity to explore nearby Pretoria, the capital of South Africa, which has much to offer the tourist. Some two hours away is Sun City, which has world class golf courses and plenty of quality entertainment. Another place to consider using your car rental to visit, especially if you can spend a couple of days away from Johannesburg, is the Mpumalanga Escarpment, where you can self drive to the main attractions, and enjoy the dramatic scenery. There are also two nearby nature reserves, Rietvlei Nature reserve in Tshwane, as well as the Rhino and Lion Nature Reserve in Kromdraai. The latter offers a multitude of attractions including a self drive tour.
