The legal driving age in South Africa is 18 years old, though most car hire companies require you to be at least 21 and have held your licence for at least a year. If you have an Australian driving licence, it’s advised you bring an international driving licence as well. Bear in mind that if you're younger than 25 years old, some car hire companies will add a young driver surcharge on top of the standard cost. Hire agencies will require a valid ID document, usually a passport, and a valid credit card in your name. If your booking was paid for online, the credit card used and the owner of it must be present when picking up the car. You will not be able to use the credit card of someone who isn't present.
There is a wide range of car hire companies operating from King Shaka International Airport, and they're all located in the car hire centre outside. Once you've made your way through the luggage claim and headed into the arrivals hall, you'll need to make your way outside to the P4 pick-up parking area. Walk into the P4 area and turn right. The dedicated car hire parking area is located behind Intercontinental Hotel. This is where you'll fill out the forms with the company you choose, inspect the car and be given the keys.
The car hire centre at the airport is home to basic amenities like toilets and a waiting area. Most of the main amenities are located inside the airport terminal. If you need to grab a bite to eat or exchange or withdraw money, you'll want to do this inside the airport before leaving.

Cons:
Was charged $300 USD for a scratched plastic hub cap. Will be disputing the charge via my credit card, and will spread the word about never renting from Thrifty anywhere in the world.6.0 Okay
Mar 2017
Cons:
We were not welcomed at the car park, in fact we were ignored on pickup and return. Taking a carrolla I expected a decent amount of power.going up hills required frequent use of first gear. On returning the car, we should have received the charges. A week later, I have not seen the final bill.One location in Durban King Shaka Intl Airport

Pros:
Car was a Kia Sportage, nice car, easy to drive. Staff all helpful and friendly. Would use them again.Cons:
Rear cover was missing in the boot. Wasn't noticed on pickup and only noticed on return. I thought it had been left out because they get stollen or damaged? Cruise control would have been nice to have on the car.2.0 Poor

7.2 Good
Nov 2016
Pros:
Staff were very friendly and polite. Vehicle was in good condition.Cons:
Although the booking had been made correctly by my company and the card payment details were provided, I had to leave my personal credit card details as security before the vehicle was released to me. I then had to return the following day with my company secretary to avoid being charged twice for the booking. A very inconvenient experience, as this involved a 50k round trip to the airport. The booking was for a SUV, but the vehicle provided turned out to be a 4wd pick-up truck with a hard cover at the back, no luxury features and no built-in GPS system, which was disappointing considering the price we paid.One location in Durban King Shaka Intl Airport
