A few tips to improve your Cape Argus car hire booking

Travel insurance

As a airport, we understand a few things about travel insurance.  Don’t, for instance, take out  personal accident insurance if you have travel insurance, since personal accident cover is already ensured by the travel insurance. Just one more way you can save on costs.

Book early

Close to the date the demand for Cape Argus car hire increases massively, so make your arrangements to avoid the inevitable price increases that many car hire companies make at this time.  Booking early, and with Cape Town Airport’s website’s large variety of car rental options, you will pay less than many other people do.
