Ho scelto Melbic basandomi sulle recensioni e quindi mi trovo in dovere di ricambiare. Abbiamo preso una toyota hilux 4x4 con tenda sul tetto e devo dire che è stata... Read More una gran macchina, ottima su tutti i percorsi: dalle piste più impervie alle strade asfaltate. L'auto era provvista di tutto il necessario per il camping ed era tutto funzionante e pulito, dalle stoviglie ai sacchi a pelo. Abbiamo avuto un piccolo incidente di percorso ma con l'assistenza di Melbic abbiamo risolto nel giro di qualche ora, cosa che non ha modificato di troppo i nostri programmi. Utilissimo il servizio navetta da e per l'aeroporto incluso nell'affitto. Forse un po' lungo il ceck in ma capisco che devono essere esaustivi soprattutto per chi è alla prima esperienza. Consigliatissimo.
Ça s’est très bien passé. Véhicule propre et quasi neuf. Service client réactif. J’ai cependant trois bémols : - le dernier soir nous avons eu une souris qui a réussi à se... Read More glisser dans le coffre, c’est pas hermétique à 100% - quand il pleuvait nous avions la pluie qui rentrait à l’intérieur - il y a différentes tailles de lit, nous avons malheureusement eu 120cm, il serait sympa de généraliser les 140cm (surtout si on prend un mois) Dans l’ensemble l’expérience était bien
The experience was grate, we rented a car for 17 days. We didn't puncture a tier (I suppose the tiers where good), and didn't have any problems with the car.... Read More The only thing i didn't like was their advice to keep the tiers always at 2.2 Bar even on sand and gravel roads. We adjusted it to 1.8 on gravel and the ride was much smoother. A pressure gauge in the car equipment would be a grate upgrade to be able to check the pressure. I bought one.
excellent service,car was in top condition as well tyres,no problems at all during 3 weeks of rental
Our one-month road trip through Namibia with a rooftop tent from Melbic Car Rentals was an unforgettable adventure and truly the trip of a lifetime. From the very beginning, Melbic... Read More made the entire experience smooth, professional, and stress-free. The vehicle was in excellent condition, well maintained, and perfectly equipped for Namibia’s long distances and varied terrain. The rooftop tent was comfortable, easy to set up, and ideal for camping in some of the most breathtaking locations we have ever experienced. Having our own car gave us complete freedom to explore at our own pace, from deserts and dunes to national parks and remote landscapes. Throughout the month, the car performed flawlessly on gravel roads, sandy tracks, and long highway drives. Melbic Car Rentals provided clear instructions, helpful advice, and great customer service, which gave us confidence and peace of mind for such a long journey. Everything we needed was thoughtfully included, making life on the road simple and enjoyable. Namibia is a spectacular country, and traveling it by self-drive with a rooftop tent is the perfect way to experience its beauty and vastness. We highly recommend Melbic Car Rentals to anyone planning a road trip in Namibia. Thanks to them, our month-long adventure was comfortable, reliable, and absolutely unforgettable.

3 semaines au volant d'un 4x4 Melbic qui m'a permis de visiter sans difficulté le Kgalagadi, le Tirasberg et d'autres endroits mystérieux et peu connus de Namibie. Les véhicules sont... Read More bien suivis, l'équipe attentive à satisfaire ses clients, la magie de la Namibie fait le reste. A recommander les yeux fermés.
All was perfect! Good communication, good price and very good car . No fees at the end with full insurance. Pick up in Kasane and drop off at Windoek. I recommand.
Pick-up/check-in was smooth, and we received all the necessary information plus a clear demo of the vehicle and camping gear. The car was in great condition and perfectly clean. When... Read More we had a small issue with the table mount at the back of the pickup, support was quick to respond and arranged a repair stop along our route. I’d happily recommend Melbic for a reliable and hassle-free rental experience.
Avril 2025 ,C'était un grand plaisir de louer chez Melbic, une équipe super professionnelle et toujours disponible pour la moindre question. Les véhicules sont super bien entretenus, quasiment neufs. Nous... Read More avons parcouru 6000 kilomètres sans aucun problème. Nous avons hâte de revenir en Namibie et, bien sûr, de relouer chez Melbic. Merci a toute l'équipe .
Véhicule fiable, recent et bien entretenu. Excellent accueil et explication détaillé pour la prise en charge du véhicule. Transfert aeroport !
Nous avons loué un 4x4 avec 2 tentes de toit lors de nos vacances en Namibie. Nous avons été ravis de notre experience avec Melbic. Loueur très professionnel, nous avons... Read More eu toutes les explications nécessaires pour la prise en main du véhicule ainsi que de tout le matériel présent dans le 4x4. Nous avions loué un Toyota Hilux, il était très récent, à peine 6000km. Nous avons passé 2 semaines incroyables à bord de ce véhicule. Pas le moindre problème, pas même une crevaison malgré toutes les pistes empreintées! Nous avons fait quasiment 3500km avec nos deux enfants de 9 et 11 ans. Nous avons rendu le 4x4 avec beaucoup de regrets et une grande nostalgie. Pas de soucis à la restitution du véhicule non plus. Je ne peux que vous conseiller de passer par Melbic pour louer un véhicule!!
We hebben in oktober een Toyota Hilux met daktent gehuurd bij Melbic. Het was een enorm fijne wagen en voorzien van alles wat je nodig hebt om te kamperen en... Read More rondreizen in Namibië. Er is ruim tijd genomen om de wagen en al het materiaal te overlopen en uit te leggen. Tegen het einde hadden we enkele technische problemen met de wagen, maar er was steeds technische assistentie beschikbaar om ons verder te helpen. Een aanrader voor als je een betrouwbare organisatie zoekt voor je huurwagen!
