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 Zimbabwe, 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 Zimbabwe and pick it up at a convenient place for them.
Options and possibilities:
We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Zimbabwe on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Mini Couper Cabrio from us, starting at €65 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Zimbabwe. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Opel Vivaro might be best - from €71 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like Nissan Maxima for €41 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Peugeot 208 for just €18 per day.
Select the exact date and time for picking up and returning the car:
If you want to save money, choose the same pick-up and return time. Car rental companies charge for a full day of rent, so if you rent a car for 25 hours, you pay for 48 hours (two full days), and 73 hours would be equivalent to four full days of rent.

The rental points are grouped into three main locations: city, airports, and railway stations. Therefore, it won’t be difficult for you to find an option that suits you. Important note: the number of cars offered and the rental price in different rental locations in Zimbabwe may differ. That is, car rental at the airport can be more expensive compared to the city centre. However, there is generally a larger choice of models at the airport. To pick the best option, you should study all of the offers, compare prices, and then make a decision.
Average prices by car class
The highest demand for car rental in Zimbabwe 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 Opel Insignia in Zimbabwe is €49 per day.
In autumn, the same car costs about €13 per day.
Highest summer price for convertibles. For example, a Mini Couper Cabrio is offered at €65 per day.
Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Zimbabwe is the Peugeot 208. The rental price for such a car starts from €18 per day from sixt.
For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a Nissan Maxima will cost about €41 per day.
With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a VW Tiguan at this time can be rented for just €40 per day.
Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Zimbabwe, you can easily rent a BMW X5 to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.
Cancellation and change conditions
We provide preferential cancellation / amendment terms for most cars and rental companies in Zimbabwe
If you cancel your reservation at least 24 hours prior to receipt (48 hours in some cases), you will be refunded in full in almost all cases.
If you cancel less than 24 hours in advance (48 hours in some cases), you will receive a full refund minus an administration fee in almost all circumstances.
Cancellation policies and administration fees may vary depending on the provider and car you choose. Please read the cancellation policy before proceeding with your booking.
Remember that cancellations and changes are not possible after the pick-up time. This applies to all bookings.
Applies to all bookings:
If your online payment is less than the stated administration fee, there will be no refunds when cancelling your booking once the administration fee is applied.
If your booking is made less than 24 hours prior to the pick-up time (or 48 hours in some cases), a cancellation policy will be automatically applied to your booking.
Important information: All cancellations must be made in the “Manage My Booking” section and not directly through the car rental company itself.

If you purchased an additional insurance product with your car rental, the policy will be automatically ended when the booking is cancelled. To check if you are eligible for a refund, see the cancellation policy set out in the terms of your insurance product.
No-show at the rental location:
A “no-show” can mean that:
● You didn't inform the car rental company of your cancellation before your pick-up time.
● You failed to pick up your car in Zimbabwe at the arranged time and date.
● You failed to provide the documentation required to pick up the car.
● You failed to provide a credit card in the main driver’s name with enough available funds on it.
In the event of any of the above, no refunds can be made.
The car rental company reserves the right to refuse a car to any customer who fails to arrive on time with all of the necessary documentation and a credit card with enough available funds for the car's security deposit. In such cases, the customer will not be entitled to a refund.

We advise you to carefully study the age requirements of the company, especially if you are under 26 years old. After all, your car rental costs may depend on this. Different countries, companies and even rental locations may have different age limits and fees. Therefore, we urge you to read the full terms and conditions of the rental service and the information specified in the voucher.
