South African Car Rental – Pretoria By Car

Pretoria is the capital of South Africa and is located in the northern part of the Guateng province. The city of Pretoria is home to approximately 1,300,000 people and is constantly growing. Its growth is to the north while in the south the urban sprawl of the city flows to Soweto and further into Johannesburg. A hire car from Pretoria will allow you to visit all these areas.

For some, Soweto is well worth a visit, although it is a good idea to take a guided tour instead of car rental. It is a sprawling city that seems rather boring if you don't know what to look for, and it is very likely that with the sheer size of it a person could easily get lost if not a local.

Car rental in Pretoria is ideal as it makes a fantastic holiday base. You can drive your hire car to the Magaliesberg region. This region is rich in history. It also has much to offer the eco tourist. It is a natural game area with a number of fine wild life game parks to offer. You next stop in your rental car could be the area they call The Cradle of Human Kind. Set around the Rustenburg, Magaliesberg and Heartbeespoort regions, the area abounds with relics from the stone age and iron age. All of this area really is a haven to the visitor who wants to live the African experience, all available to your when you rent a car in Pretoria.

Some other places of interest are the National Zoological Gardens of South Africa, Kruger House, Melrose House, Church Square, Union Buildings, Voortrekker Monument, and the Transvaal Museum. Drive your rental car to any or all of these attractions of Pretoria, at your own pace, in your own time.

When planning your time in Pretoria, you may want to plan to be there in Spring. Many of the cities streets are lined with Jacaranda trees that put on a great show of mauve blossom. This has given rise to the cities nickname of the Jacaranda City. Few things are finer than travelling down the avenues in your new model rental car, with the trees of Pretoria in full bloom.
