Car rental question: big name brand or smaller rentals?

Wait 5 sec.

I am looking to rent a 4x4 in Windhoek for a week next month. Based on reviews online and on reddit, most people recommend Asco, safari car rental, melbic, namibia2go, etc. However all these companies are on the pricier side, especially when comparing with the big name brand companies at the airport (hertz, sixt) for the same car (4x4 hilum or fortunner). My question is should I trust Hertz at the airport, I can seem to find any reviews on them on reddit or tripadvisor. The price is almost 30-40% cheaper so am very tempted. I know the smaller companies give 2 spare tyres, air compressor and other stuff as standard whereas Hertz only gives the car. Has anyone had any experience renting a 4x4 from Hertz? My main concern is if they give me a car with really worn tyres. Any advice is appreciated, thanks.   submitted by   /u/Arj_toast [link]   [comments]
