Top tips for renting a car in Ghana

  • Hiring a car in Ghana can offer several advantages for travellers exploring the country, providing you with the freedom to create your own itinerary and travel at your own pace. You can visit multiple attractions in a day, make spontaneous stops, and explore off-the-beaten-path destinations, including Accra, the capital city of Ghana, Cape Coast Castle and Elmina Castle, and Kakum National Park, located near Cape Coast.  Some parts of Ghana may not be easily accessible by public transportation. Having a car hire allows you to reach more remote and less touristy areas that may offer unique cultural experiences and natural beauty.
  • Major cities and highways in Ghana generally have well-maintained roads, but rural and less-travelled areas may have rougher or unpaved roads. You may find that some roads may have potholes or other surface irregularities, so you should exercise caution, especially during the rainy season when road conditions can deteriorate. Traffic congestion is also common in urban areas, especially during the peak hours of 6:30 to 9:30 and 16:30 to 19:00. Accra, Kumasi, and other major cities can experience heavy traffic, leading to delays and longer travel times.
  • If you are travelling with children, then it is important to note that in Ghana, by law, it is mandatory for all children to wear seatbelts while travelling in a vehicle, and children under the age of 5 years are required to sit in the backseat. Although there are no specific laws regarding car seats for children, if a driver believes that your child is not safely secured, they have the right to decline providing the ride.
  • If you are planning on travelling to one of the neighbouring countries, Togo, Côte d'Ivoire or Burkina Faso, you should be aware that for non-ECOWAS citizens, a visa is necessary when crossing any land border. You have the option to obtain the visa in advance before arriving in Africa, or you can get it either at the Ghanaian Embassy of the country you plan to visit, or directly at the border of the country you intend to enter. Always check with your car hire company to make sure they allow border crossing and to check what their policies are.
  • Small rental cars in Ghana are around 35% cheaper than other car types, on average
