Land Cruiser or similar without rooftop tent - South Africa
The road narrows. The sand gets deeper. The next fuel stop is still a long way off. This 4x4 is built for journeys where range, robustness and off-road capability matter more than luxury.



Your home on wheels through Africa.
Where lighter 4x4s turn back, you keep going. This Toyota Land Cruiser or similar, is intended for journeys where conditions can change considerably along the way. Long gravel roads. Rough tracks. Deep, very soft sand. Routes where rain changes the road surface and distances between places grow. This is where the strong drivetrain, robust construction, high ground clearance and four-wheel drive come into their own. This category is made for routes where lighter vehicle categories reach their limits sooner. Not because every kilometre is difficult terrain, but because you want to know the vehicle is ready when the route demands it. Water crossings are also possible, always within the capabilities of the vehicle and the conditions on site. This 4x4 comfortably seats two to four people. For families, this category can also suit two adults and three children.
Well prepared for the road ahead.

Drive without worries, even when things go wrong.
The rentalcompany’s standard insurance typically includes an excess and, in many cases,does not cover damage to items such as windshields, tires, and other specific components. Our supplementary insurance can significantly reduce the excess, bringing it down to a very low amount or even zero.
