Two far-apart gateways for Britz 4x4s

Known in southern Africa for its 4x4s with rooftop tents, the Britz brand, described in detail on its South African page, offers two departure points in Zimbabwe at opposite ends of the country: Victoria Falls, in the west, on the Zambezi, and Harare, the capital, in the north-east. No address is published for either: the handover location is set at the time of booking.

CoolDrive did not record any Britz prices in Zimbabwe in October 2026, and the country's fleet is not detailed. The model, camping equipment, included kilometres and excess should therefore be read in each offer. The choice of city depends mainly on your itinerary: Victoria Falls opens onto Hwange National Park and onto Chobe, across the Botswana border, while Harare brings you closer to Mana Pools, Lake Kariba, Great Zimbabwe and the Eastern Highlands. Between the two, the road via Bulawayo covers nearly 900 km.

Our view: an interesting option for a self-drive safari starting at the falls or in the capital. Its limits come from the lack of data: no model or price known in advance, and a one-way hire between the two cities to be checked offer by offer.

Our view

Britz: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

Britz is ideal if…

  • You want to combine Victoria Falls, Hwange and Chobe in the same trip
  • You are landing in Harare and heading for Mana Pools or the shores of Lake Kariba
  • You like sleeping at national park campsites, as close as possible to the wildlife

Britz is not ideal if…

  • You want to compare prices already recorded before searching for your dates
Practical tips

Our tips for booking with Britz

  1. Don't let the fuel gauge drop

    Outside Harare, Bulawayo and Victoria Falls, fuel supplies can be irregular and filling stations scarce on some roads. Fill up whenever you get the chance and ask the rental company whether a jerrycan can be added to the vehicle, especially before Mana Pools or the remote areas of Hwange.

  2. Be ready for roadside checks

    Police roadblocks are frequent on the main roads. Keep your licence, the rental contract and the vehicle documents within easy reach, and check at departure that the warning triangles and required safety equipment are on board. Stick strictly to speed limits and ask for an official receipt for any fine.

  3. Choose the season according to your priorities

    From May to October, the dry season gathers the animals around the waterholes of Hwange and Mana Pools, which are often hard to reach during the rains, from November to March. The falls, for their part, are at their most powerful around March and April, with a lot of spray, and at their lowest at the end of the year.

What travellers ask

Your questions about Britz

Victoria Falls or Harare: where should you start with a Britz 4x4?

Victoria Falls suits you if your trip centres on the falls, Hwange National Park or a crossing to Chobe in Botswana. Harare is better for a circuit in the north and east: the Zambezi Valley, Mana Pools, Lake Kariba, the ruins of Great Zimbabwe or the Nyanga mountains. The two cities are too far apart to combine without several days of driving.

How much does a Britz 4x4 cost in Zimbabwe?

We have no Britz prices for this country in our October 2026 records. A search for Victoria Falls or Harare, for your dates, shows the amount of each available offer, mandatory fees included; it varies with the model, the period and the length of your stay.

How does the handover of a Britz 4x4 work in Zimbabwe?

Britz does not publish an address in Victoria Falls or Harare. The place and time of handover are agreed at the time of booking, and our experts then help you arrange them with the rental company according to your arrival.

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 — Britz 4x4 camper hire in Zimbabwe

Can you cross into Botswana with a 4x4 collected in Victoria Falls?

The Kazungula border post, about 70 km from Victoria Falls, opens the road to Kasane and Chobe National Park. This crossing requires Britz's prior agreement and the vehicle documents; road and insurance fees may also be charged at the border. Mention it when you book so that the rental company can prepare the paperwork.

What documents do you need to drive in Zimbabwe?

An international driving permit is strongly recommended in addition to your national licence. Your passport and, depending on your nationality, a visa will be required on entry; the deposit is normally paid by credit card. The minimum driver age required is shown in the offer before payment.

Can you collect the 4x4 in Harare and return it in Victoria Falls?

This route crosses the country via Bulawayo and lets you visit Matobo or Hwange on the way. Whether it is accepted, and its price, depend on the offer: enter Victoria Falls as the drop-off city in your search to see the offers that allow it.
