Incredibly low prices and excellent service. I hired the vehicle for the month and both the pick up and return processes were seamless! Did I mention how impressed I was with the cost??

I've rented from Woodford Car Hire at King Shaka Airport several times, and the experience is always excellent. Most recently, I had an Urban Cruiser for the weekend, which was clean, comfortable, fuel-efficient, and perfect for exploring Durban and the surrounding areas. One of the biggest advantages is their unlimited kilometres option, which gives real peace of mind when travelling without having to constantly watch your mileage. The collection and drop-off process is quick, seamless, and hassle-free, making the entire rental experience very convenient. The staff are always professional, friendly, and helpful, and they consistently go the extra mile to assist customers. I've even been lucky enough to receive the occasional upgrade over the years, which is always appreciated (though I certainly wouldn't complain about a few more! 😄). Great service, great vehicles, and excellent value for money. Highly recommended for anyone travelling through King Shaka Airport. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was our second time renting a car from this company, and once again we are very satisfied. The car performed excellently throughout our trip, including the drive across the border into Lesotho via Sani Pass. The entire rental process was smooth and hassle-free. We were also pleasantly surprised by how quickly the security deposits were refunded. The deposit for this rental was returned to our account just a few hours after we returned the car, together with the deposit from our first rental in Cape Town (after 12 days). We had originally been informed that the refund could take between 7 and 21 business days. Our only small comment is that the car could have been cleaned a little more thoroughly before collection, as it wasn't quite as clean as the vehicle we rented the first time. However, this was only a minor issue and did not affect our overall experience. We can confidently give this company 5 stars and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable car rental service!
