Cross-Border Car Rental in East Africa

East Africa offers incredible diversity — from Uganda's gorillas to Kenya's Masai Mara, Rwanda's volcanoes to Tanzania's Serengeti. With our cross-border car rental, you can explore multiple countries in a single trip without the hassle of changing vehicles at borders.

We provide all necessary documentation for cross-border travel: COMESA insurance, vehicle export permits, and clearance letters. Our 4x4 vehicles are registered and insured for travel in Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and DRC. Whether self-drive or with a driver-guide, we make international travel seamless.

Popular routes include Uganda to Rwanda for gorilla trekking combinations, Uganda to Kenya for Masai Mara safaris, and multi-country East African circuits. We advise on routes, border procedures, and timing to optimize your cross-border adventure.
