Abbiamo scelto Melbic dopo un'attenta valutazione dei diversi fornitori. Siamo rimasti decisamente soddisfatti del servizio ricevuto e della macchina utilizzata. Si trattava di una Toyota Hilux, ovviamente 4x4, dotata di 2... Read More tende per 4 persone. La macchina era dotata di tutto il necessario per il nostro soggiorno nei diversi campeggi. Abbiamo, come prevedibile, bucato una volta una gomma ma siamo riusciti a sostituirla e poi dopo aver sentito l'assistenza l'abbiamo portata dal meccanico. Personale gentile e disponibile. Servizio transfer da/per aeroporto compreso. Lo consigliamo !

We had a last minute change in pickup time which the team were very flexible with. We hired a hilux with camping for 2 pax - the vehicle was in great condition, with all the possible equipment one could want when camping. Also went very well on the unsealed roads. If the pickup location was closer to the airport, it would have been perfect, but nonetheless with the complimentary airport pickup provided by Melbic it was a great experience. Would highly recommend for anyone travelling in the area!!

Ik zou wel aanraden van je koffers volledig ingeladen te hebben voordat je hem afgeeft want eens je op het wagen park rijd , word hij onmiddellijk gestript en heb je weinig tijd om je spullen nog te nemen. Tip top organisatie. En het was een zeer nieuwe auto dat we hadden gekregen 😊🤩

Il a attendu avec nous de s'assurer que son échange fonctionnait en attendant que la température du frigo baisse. Le véhicule était impeccable. Nous avons parcouru 42000 kms. C'était formidable ! Très belle experience. Si je peux faire une petite suggestion pour ce sui concerne l'équipement de camping, une thermos serait un plus (nous avions la nôtre et elle nous a bien servi) et quelques tupperware bien hermétiques aussi.

I genuinely cannot recommend this company highly enough — they made our 10-day self-drive adventure across Namibia absolutely unforgettable. From the very beginning, everything was handled with professionalism, clarity, and genuine... Read More enthusiasm. The team took the time to walk us through every detail of the vehicle and equipment, making sure we felt completely confident before setting off. As first-time overlanders in Namibia, this made a huge difference. The 4x4 Jeep itself was in immaculate condition — incredibly reliable, powerful, and perfectly suited for Namibia’s diverse terrain, from long gravel roads to deep sand. Not a single issue throughout the entire trip. The rooftop tents were equally impressive: easy to set up, very comfortable, and surprisingly spacious. You can tell everything has been thoughtfully designed for real adventure travel. What really stood out, though, was the attention to detail. Every piece of equipment you could possibly need was included — and not just included, but high quality and well organized. It felt like the company had anticipated every scenario. We drove through Etosha, Spitzkoppe, Swakopmund, and the Namib Desert, and the vehicle performed flawlessly everywhere. Having such a dependable setup allowed us to fully enjoy the experience without worrying about logistics or reliability. On top of that, the customer service was exceptional — responsive, friendly, and genuinely invested in making sure we had the best possible trip. You don’t feel like just another booking; you feel taken care of. If you’re considering a self-drive trip in Namibia, this is the company to go with. It’s not just a rental — it’s a complete, seamless adventure setup. An absolute 10/10 experience — I would book with them again in a heartbeat.
Amazing service, amazing cars! Highly recommend

Read More opted for the hardtop tent which was very simple to set up and put away. I’d probably recommend this over the soft top tents which we saw others have and are totally fine but are a bit more fiddly to put up and down. Overall our experience was great, the staff and team were all wonderful and arranged pick up and drop off from the airport making the whole experience streamlined and stress free. I would 100% recommend Melbic car rentals if you’re doing a 4x4 trip in Namibia.
