The rental company

Between the Okavango and Chobe, two departure points for a self-drive safari

In Botswana, Avis Safari Rental hands over its 4x4 campers in the two towns that open up the north of the country. In Maun, the depot is on plot 4815 in the Matshwane industrial area, along the A3: from there, tracks lead to the Okavango Delta, the Moremi Game Reserve and the Makgadikgadi Pans. In Kasane, the vehicle is collected directly at the international airport, very close to the entrance to Chobe National Park.

For 15-day stays, on 20 October 2026 CoolDrive recorded prices ranging from around €98 to €276 a day depending on the model and departure date, for departures tested from January to October 2027. The average is around €168, and our records show exactly the same amounts in Maun and Kasane. The Hilux Single Cab for two opens the range, and the Land Cruiser Double Cab Luxury for four closes it.

Each of the 24 offers recorded includes kilometres with no cap, a real advantage in a country where you cover dozens of kilometres of sand every day. As for the excess, our Botswana data do not give the amount: it appears in the offer details.

Our view: two well-chosen departure points for a trip in the north, with the option of landing in Kasane and finding your 4x4 on site. To weigh up before committing: an excess to check, no departure from Gaborone or the south of the country, and park campsites to book very early for the dry season.

Our view

Avis Safari Rental: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

Avis Safari Rental is ideal if…

  • You dream of driving from Maun to Kasane via Moremi and Savuti
  • You are flying into Kasane and want to set off straight from the airport
  • Your trip stretches over hundreds of kilometres of tracks
  • There are four of you and you are torn between the Hilux Family and the Land Cruiser Double Cab

Avis Safari Rental is not ideal if…

  • Your trip starts in Gaborone or in the southern Kalahari
  • Deep sand worries you and you have never driven a 4x4
Practical tips

Our tips for booking with Avis Safari Rental

  1. Secure your campsites before the hire

    In Moremi, Savuti or along the Chobe River, you can only sleep at designated sites, often run by private concessionaires and fully booked months ahead in the dry season. Rangers generally ask for proof of booking at the gate: get it before fixing your 4x4 dates.

  2. Be ready for veterinary fences

    The country is criss-crossed by foot-and-mouth disease control fences, with checkpoints on the roads. You may be asked to declare, or even give up, raw meat and some fresh produce. Stock the cool box sparingly and find out about the checkpoints on your route.

  3. Aim for the dry season

    From May to October, the tracks are passable and wildlife gathers around waterholes. The rains from November to March make some areas of Savuti and Moremi slippery, sometimes inaccessible. The Okavango flood, for its part, reaches the delta in the middle of the southern winter, when the skies are dry.

  4. Let your tyres down before the sand

    On soft sand, slightly deflated tyres gain a great deal of traction; pump them back up before returning to the tarmac. At departure, ask whether there is a compressor on board and have someone show you how to engage four-wheel drive. On the A33 between Nata and Kasane, elephants and livestock cross the road: do not drive at night.

What travellers ask

Your questions about Avis Safari Rental

Should you start from Maun or Kasane?

It all depends on the first stage. Maun is the obvious choice for the delta, Moremi, Nxai Pan or the Central Kalahari. Kasane puts the vehicle by the Chobe River and about 80 km from Victoria Falls, on the Zimbabwean side. As our records show the same prices in both towns, only the itinerary decides.

Can you collect the 4x4 in Maun and drop it off in Kasane?

A trip between the two depots is possible, depending on the offer and with any one-way fees. By tarred road, via Nata, allow around 600 km; via the tracks of Moremi and Savuti, the crossing takes several days. To see whether one-way hire is offered on your dates, enter Kasane as the return town: the price shown then includes the supplement.

Which model should you choose for a safari for four in Botswana?

Three vehicles sleep four people: the Hilux Family, recorded at €115 to €202 a day, the Overlander Luxury, from €131 to €217, with five seats, and the Land Cruiser Double Cab Luxury, from €188 to €276. The differences follow the departure date: compare them on your exact dates.

What Avis Safari Rental prices have been observed in Botswana?

Over 15 days, our October 2026 records put the Hilux Single Cab at €98 to €183 a day, the SUV Line at €102 to €120 and the Ford Ranger Luxury at €150 to €244. These amounts cover departures from January to October 2027; the search gives the actual price for the period you are interested in.

First rental of this type of vehicle in a professional context where the rental must take place from France to Canada. Many questions and Cooldrive (Marlène) has been a valuable support in guiding my choices. Efficiency and responsiveness beforehand, and on-site a vehicle and service that met our expectations. No complaints. Great!

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Avis Safari Rental 4x4 camper hire in Botswana

What do you gain by booking through CoolDrive in Botswana?

A single search sets Avis Safari Rental against Britz, Bushlore Africa or Asco for the same dates, with a price that includes mandatory fees. Once the booking is made, our experts help you arrange the handover in Maun or at Kasane airport.

Can you cross into Zambia or Zimbabwe from Kasane?

Kasane lies next to two borders: the Kazungula bridge leads to Zambia, the Victoria Falls road to Zimbabwe. Leaving Botswana requires the rental company's agreement, documents for the vehicle and often fees. The countries accepted are listed in the offer: mention your plans when you book.

Which licence should you show to drive in Botswana?

In addition to your national licence, an international driving permit is recommended. Driving is on the left, and the minimum age and length of licence holding required are stated in each offer. Keep these documents and your passport within easy reach: police and veterinary checks are frequent.

How much should you have blocked on your card at departure?

Avis Safari Rental's excess does not appear in our records for this country. The deposit amount, how to pay it and the options that reduce it are detailed in the offer. Before travelling, check that your credit card limit is high enough.
