Keys in hand, anywhere in Africa.
Self-drive or with a driver. Operators set the price and keep all of it; you pay them directly and collect with a code only you hold.
Where will you drive?
Tell us the road and every car is checked against it: clearance, drive, fuel range and the season. A saloon for the Mara in April is a bad day; we say so before you book.

Pick the car
See the full price from the operator's own rates before you commit: days, their weekly discount, a driver, delivery, extras. Cabana's line is always zero.
The operator confirms
Instant-book cars confirm straight away; others answer inside their response window. You get their number, pickup point and how to pay.
Keys against your code
At collection the operator enters your four-digit handover code. It proves the car went to you, and starts the hire.
Operators keep every shilling.You pay them directly by M-Pesa, cash or card. Cabana never holds your money and never adds a fee.
Good to know
Does Cabana charge a booking fee?
No. The operator sets the rate and keeps it in full. You pay them directly and Cabana adds nothing on top.
What about the deposit?
The refundable deposit is the operator's and is shown in every quote. They take it at collection and return it when the car comes back as agreed.
Can I drive across a border?
Only in cars the operator has cleared for it, with their written permission and the right insurance. Cars that allow it say so, and the trip check flags every crossing.
No car where I need one?
Post a car request. Verified operators nearby, and the Cabana desk, answer with priced offers. Accept one and it becomes a confirmed hire with the same handover code.
