Rented a car from them

Rented a car from them, it was the perfect car for Cape Town. The customer service was excellent, and Matt from Jimmy’s assisted me with a seamless handover of my lovely vehicle that I rented, Maya. What a great experience! A massive thank you. Not to forget, the car was in pristine condition.

Jimmy's for the win!

I found Jimmy's Car Hire via my Instagram feed and thought, hmm...what an awesome way to tour around Cape Town and the Western Cape in the perfect vehicle. First of all, these cars are really the best to drive around Cape Town, easy to park, great for road trips. Love them. But Jimmy's Car Hire service and value is what make these guys stand out amongst the corporate rental care hire companies. Always ready to help, I had the option of picking up my Jimmy "Bella" from Cape Town International Airport and dropping off in Sea Point at no additional charge! Love the flexibility. Do your self a favour and book your next car hire when visiting Cape Town with Jimmy's. Awesome cars, great service. What's not to love!

Thanks for your vote of confidence, Patrick. We're rethinking the car rental game. No more time wasted on filling out forms or sitting in unpleasant offices, just time spent enjoying what the Mother City has to offer. Hope to welcome you back soon Sir.

You know you pick a great vehicle when there’s a fight as to whom is going to be the designated driver just so you can be the one to drive the Jimny. The experience was great from start to finish. The personal service is also unique thanks to Matt’s friendly ‘can do’ attitude to the whole interaction. 5 Star all round.

Jimmy’s Car Hire was fabulous to deal with. Vehicles are in great condition, service is top notch and, of course, the major bonus is driving the fun lifestyle vehicle Suzuki Jimny! No more standard car for me in Cape Town. Well done guys! See you again when I’m in Cape Town!

Reliable

Reliable, relevant and all round great experience.

Coming from Europe we were presently surprised to deal with such a reliable and efficient company.
The car we rented was basically brand new and as if no one had driven it. Huge compliments to the men and women in charge of keeping them in that condition.
Thanks again - will definitely refer to our friends and family that are keen to have a unique transport solution when visiting the mother city.

Friendly, effortless and a bang for your buck!

The Ultimate Capetown experience. We loved our Jimmny, it was new and super clean when we received the vehicle. We were met at the airport and when we had to return the vehicle, we were met at the airport. Effortless and super friendly service! The vehicle is light on fuel and you are able to travel through any terrian! I definitely recommend and will be booking another trip when we are back in Cape Town!
