Bushlore Africa Cars in Namibia: drive a 4x4, sleep under a roof

In Namibia, Bushlore Africa Cars can be collected in two places. The Windhoek depot, on Dr. Kuaima Riruako Street, is also used by Bushlore Africa, the brand of 4x4 campers fitted out for bush camping. In Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic, the place where the vehicle is handed over to you is set at the time of booking. We have not recorded any models or prices in this country; in South Africa, the brand hires out a five-seat Hilux 4x4 without sleeping space.

This type of vehicle suits a Namibia of lodges and guesthouses well: guest farms around the capital, lodges on the edge of the Namib near Sesriem, chalets in the Etosha camps. Windhoek and Walvis Bay lie at either end of the country's most travelled route, which makes a trip without returning to the starting point conceivable, if the offer allows it.

What we think: a consistent formula for discovering the country without a tent, with a genuine 4x4 for the gravel roads. It remains poorly documented, as conditions, mileage and prices are only revealed when you search, whereas our records provide them for Asco or Africa on Wheels.

Practical tips

Our tips for booking with Bushlore Africa Cars

  1. Book the Namib lodges first

    Around Sesriem and Sossusvlei, lodges and chalets remain few compared with the number of visitors, and the best located are booked up months in advance for the July to October period. Confirm them before you even reserve the vehicle.

  2. From Walvis Bay to the desert via the C14

    To reach Sossusvlei from the coast, the C14 gravel road climbs over the Kuiseb and Gaub passes, then goes through Solitaire, one of the few places to refuel along the way. Set off with a full tank, early in the morning, to arrive before nightfall.

  3. Sandwich Harbour with a guide

    The dunes that plunge into the ocean south of Walvis Bay can only be reached by driving on the sand, according to the tides. Rental contracts frequently exclude dune driving: book a guided trip from the town instead.

Your questions about Bushlore Africa Cars

How does Bushlore Africa Cars differ from Bushlore Africa in Namibia?

Bushlore Africa hires out 4x4s you sleep in, from four Namibian cities, with prices recorded from about €115 a day over fifteen days in October 2026. Bushlore Africa Cars, for its part, departing from Windhoek and Walvis Bay, suits circuits with nights in lodges; none of its prices appear in our records yet.

What does Bushlore Africa Cars cost in Namibia?

No prices have yet been recorded for this brand in Namibia, and we do not estimate any. The amount varies with the season, the number of days and the pick-up city: it is shown, mandatory fees included, as soon as you run the search for your dates.

Can you collect the 4x4 in Windhoek and return it in Walvis Bay?

Both cities are part of the brand's network, which makes the idea tempting for a linear circuit from the capital to the coast. A one-way hire is only possible if the offer accepts it, though, usually with a surcharge: choose Walvis Bay as the drop-off location in the search to check.

Everything was quick and quite simple. Just a small downside upon arrival, we waited a good amount of time before being taken care of.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Bushlore Africa Cars 4x4 hire in Namibia

Where can you sleep in Namibia without camping equipment?

The country has many guest farms, often on vast estates, as well as private lodges near the major sites. In Etosha, the Okaukuejo, Halali and Namutoni camps offer chalets inside the park, which saves you the rush to get out before the gates close.

Can you cross into South Africa or Botswana with this vehicle?

Leaving Namibia requires the rental company's written agreement and documents for the vehicle, which are often charged for. Depending on the destination country, a road tax may also be charged at the border post. Mention your plans before booking: the permitted countries are listed in the offer's conditions.
