At 4×4 Tanzania Car Rentals, we make cross-border self-drive and chauffeur-driven journeys smooth and stress-free. We arrange one-way rentals from Tanzania to:
Kenya: Nairobi or Mombasa.
Rwanda: Kigali.
Uganda: Kampala.
We can also organize return rentals from these destinations back to Tanzania, giving you maximum flexibility in planning your East African itinerary.
Cross-border one-way rentals require special documentation to ensure hassle-free travel across borders. This includes:
COMESA license/insurance for regional coverage.
Road tax and border clearance paperwork.
Support with customs and immigration procedures.
Our team takes care of all the paperwork and guides you through the requirements so your cross-border journey remains seamless.
Avoid Night Driving:
Roads in many parts of East Africa have limited street lighting, and wildlife often crosses unexpectedly. To stay safe, plan your travel to arrive at your destination before dusk.
Fuel Up Regularly:
Fuel stations can be far apart in remote regions. Always keep your tank full and, if you’re traveling into the wilderness, consider carrying extra fuel to avoid running out.
Choose the Right Vehicle:
A 4×4 vehicle is strongly recommended for exploring major national parks such as the Serengeti, Kidepo Valley, Masai Mara, and Nyungwe Forest. These vehicles handle rough roads and changing weather conditions better, especially during the rainy season (November to April), when some routes may become difficult to access.
