Hire a Hummer

Conquer Cape Town and feel like a VIP in the world’s most serious 4x4


One of the biggest cars on the road, the Hummer is synonymous with power and toughness. If you’re keen to conquer Cape Town like a king (or superstar), hiring a humvee for the day (or longer) makes for the perfect horse and chariot.

Don’t believe us? Just ask Arnold Schwarzenegger, the famous celeb responsible for making the former infantry auto available to the public. Designed for the US Army, the original car was engineered as a military and light transport cargo vehicle. With an incredibly heavy frame and a solid steel underbelly strong enough to survive mine explosions, it really was a tank for the road.

But, the Terminator star saw it differently. He thought it was the best thing on four wheels, and begged the company for a version that was road legal. They obliged, and the Hummer legacy began.

About the Hummer H2

The H2, a Hummer style available for rent in Cape Town, is big on bling, light on the military component. Kanye West would love this thing. In fact, he probably has three of them. And with some of the biggest tyres ever fitted to a production car, the Hummer is set to happily climb over any, ahem, speed bumps. Just don’t try to conquer Table Mountain, you will have to go around, like the rest of us.

Plus, with a huge sound system and large and very civilised interior, the Hummer H2 is one of the best places to pump the music and have your own little mobile party. Of course, if you want to take part in the revelry hands-free, you can book a chauffeur to take over driving duties.

In short, there really is nothing like hiring a Hummer H2 in Cape Town and arriving at your function. If bling is your thing, this is the car to make you feel like a king.
