SIXT car hire in Durban

Discover our convenient locations in Durban and quickly get where you want to go. We’re ready to meet you at our branches at Durban King Shaka Airport (DUR), Durban city centre and Umhlanga Ridge. If you’re arriving by plane, hiring your car in Durban straight from the airport is a practical and affordable option to travel to central Durban. If you’re arriving by other means, you can choose the most convenient location for you. We have a wide range of modern vehicles available for your Durban car hire at a variety of budgets, from economy to premium. Compact models are ideal for city driving, while SUVs offer extra space, comfort and power on your road trips in South Africa.

No matter the size of your party, you can find the right model that suits your needs. Smaller groups can benefit from compact cars from brands like Suzuki, VW and Nissan, which are affordable and efficient. For extra comfort and luxury, take advantage of our Ford and Mercedes models. Bigger groups can also hire our Toyota and VW vans which seat up to 11 people. Upgrade your Durban car hire and choose to include bookable extras like sat nav and child seats, and make the best of our flexible hire periods by choosing same-day hire, weekend hire or weekly hire.

What to do while in Durban

Durban offers a variety of entertainment options, many of which explore the rich wildlife and nature of South Africa. Visit the uShaka Marine World and SeaWorld Aquarium, or make your way to the Durban Botanical Gardens, the Umgeni Bird Park and the Mitchell Zoo. As all these sightseeing spots are spread out in the city, a car is the best option to navigate efficiently and save time on your trip.

Winter 2024 in Durban

From June to August, you’ll experience the winter season, which is pleasant with mild temperatures around 17-24C. In fact, many outdoor activities are preferable in the winter, such as visiting the Kenneth Stainbank Nature Reserve and the Japanese Gardens, as you’ll be shielded from high temperatures and exposure to the sun. On rainy days, don’t forget to pay a visit to the Durban Natural Science Museum.
