Nice to meet you.

Zumi Rentals + Tours brings together local operations in Windhoek, practical self-drive knowledge and international trip support for travellers exploring Namibia.

We know Southern Africa. Zumi is backed by more than 25 years of combined tourism experience.

We are building Namibia’s most modern and international rental and adventure company.

What we do

Zumi is built to make Namibia travel modern and simpler.

Technology that moves travel forward

  • We are dedicated to improving the Namibian travel journey through thoughtful use of technology.
  • We bring vehicle selection, insurance, trip requests, equipment options and secure payments together through our booking portal in one streamlined experience.
  • We are developing new digital tools designed to make travelling in Namibia simpler, safer and more connected.

Clear at every step

  • We present vehicle details, pricing, insurance options, excess amounts, inclusions and important conditions clearly from the start.
  • We make it easy to see exactly what you are booking and what to expect before your trip begins.
  • We keep the information clear so there are fewer surprises and you can make confident, informed decisions.

Support when you need it

  • We remain available before, during and after your trip — not just until the booking is confirmed.
  • We provide practical assistance, local guidance and emergency support when you need them.
  • We stay within reach whether you have a planning question or need help on the road.

“From start to finish, the process was professional and left us assured that we were in good hands. A reliable vehicle, tips on what to see, and most importantly they really know Namibia like the back of their hand.”
