In most cases, the rules are 21 years and over in Cape Town. It’s worth noting that most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers. Check before you choose your ride, as different rules may apply between rental car suppliers. Keep in mind that if you want to rent a specialty vehicle or a larger car like an SUV, you may need to be older than 21.

Any rental company you select will require two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you’d prefer to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.

In Cape Town and across South Africa, motorists drive on the left-hand side. This can be daunting enough, but the driver’s seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. For a safer ride, take things slow at first and allow yourself extra time to arrive at your destination.

You sure can, just make sure your U.S. license is valid. But think about getting an International Driving Permit regardless. They’re relatively simple to arrange, and with one, you’ll be fine to drive in other places if your travel plans extend beyond Cape Town.

Some Cape Town providers will rent to drivers under 25, and others won’t. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you’ll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will apply a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
