Car Hire

Over the last few years we have developed a very good working relationship with the local offices of the large car hire companies which have offered us special discounted rates for our guests. We currently organize most of our cars through National Alamo and they are providing us with a really excellent and reliable service for our guests.

We collect most of our guests from Cape Town airport and then have their cars delivered here to Goose Green Lodge, or to the cottage or house where they are staying, shortly after they have settled in. This avoids much of the hassle of queuing at the airport to organize the car, often after an all-night flight, and the 30 minute journey to Noordhoek gives me a chance to help you get your bearings around Cape Town and the mountain passes we take for granted.

We can organize almost any type of vehicle from the usual, comfortable holiday runaround family saloons to the larger stationwagons, 4x4's and “status” cars. The rates we can offer vary according to the length of hire and usually include 100% Supercover insurance and unlimited kilometres, though it is possible to have a slightly lower daily rate if you accept a lower level of insurance cover and an excess of 5,000 Rands in the event of you having to make a claim. Our rates are available to us right across the country so if you should be needing a vehicle in Johannesburg or Durban or in any of the other large centres, the same rates apply.
