When it comes to deciding on your cheap car rental in George, you will find that the roads are easily manageable with every vehicle, from a small economy to a large passenger van. The comfort and power of an SUV will be great if you plan on taking road trips in the Cape region, but there are very few strips of road that will be a challenge for even the smallest of car. Take the fuel price into consideration as well as your adventure itinerary before booking a George car rental.
The speed limit is something that should be highly respected in South Africa. If you get pulled over on a Friday, you will spend the weekend in jail with very few exceptions. The speed is observed in kilometres and is standard compared to other cities in the world. 60 km (37 miles) on urban roads, outer roads that are not considered highways allow 100 km (62 km) and highways allow for 120 km (75 miles). Speeds can change very fast within the city so keep your eye out for signs.
Your George car rental will have no problem finding parking in George – in fact, spaces are a dime-a-dozen and usually free. There is street parking available everywhere other than loading zones and roads with red stripes painted on. The South African way is very much that all your destinations will have their own parking lots. This applies to hotels, malls, restaurants, golf courses, hospitals and more.

8.0 Very Good

Cons:
The only issue was with the car. The radio display was too bright and could not be dimmed, making it difficult to drive at night (had to cover the display by holding something over it).5.6 Fair

Pros:
The car. And the competence of staff when you were working with those that were knowledgeable.Cons:
At the time I picked up the car in George, South Africa, I specifically discussed with the agent that I did not need insurance as I had already bought it independently. And I did not sign a contract that included insurance. When I returned the car at Cape Town I. Airport, there was an attempt to charge me for insurance when I went into the office to get an invoice of my charges. There was an initial claim that they had to get George to approve removing the insurance but could not get anyone to answer there. Even the manager kept insisting that George would have to approve removing the charge. Finally a knowledgeable agent stepped in and noted that my contract had no signing for insurance and she knew how to remove the charge. None of this problem should have ever occurred, and I was only saved from a charge because I went in to ask for an invoice. I had been advised to do this by a friend who also told me that the rental car staff had recommended that you always do this in South Africa.1.9 Poor

Some George car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in George.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your George car hire.
