We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Lilongwe, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Lilongwe and pick it up at a convenient place for them.
What we can offer:
By contacting Bookingauto.com, customers can be sure that there is the right type of car waiting for them. For example, if one person or a small group of guests arrives in Lilongwe, it makes sense for them to rent a Convertible Chevrolet Camaro from €77 per day. This presentable and comfortable car is offered for rent by sixt. When it comes to a family or a large company, the best choice may be a Minivan Opel Zafira at a rate of €45 per day. Your trip will be pleasant and safe in this roomy car. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, budget is ready to offer a Business-class model - Mercedes E. A budget transport option for a journey would be a Ford Focus car, compact but quite convenient, the rental of which would cost about €17 per day.
How to minimize costs:
In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

Car rental price in Lilongwe by month
The highest demand for car rental in Lilongwe occurs during the high tourist season - summer.
On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.
For example, in July, the average price for the popular model Toyota Corolla in Lilongwe is €47 per day.
In autumn, the same car costs about €13 per day.
In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Chevrolet Camaro will cost €77 per day for the duration of the vacation period.
Among budget models, the most demanded in Lilongwe is the Ford Focus. The sixt company rents it out for €17 per day.
For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a Mercedes E will cost about €83 per day.
The excitement noticeably subsides in autumn and rental companies begin to reduce their rates. For example, you can rent a Renault Kaptur very cheaply in the autumn for just €33 per day.
It will also be easier to find unusual and exclusive car models. For example, by renting a BMW 8-series, you will experience real driving pleasure and enjoy a luxurious visit that will remain in your memory forever.
