Had a wonderful experience renting our vehicle from Asco! The staff were very friendly and helpful - shoutout to Carlo and Andre for going above and beyond! The vehicle was in perfect shape and safely took us 3000km around the country. Can’t wait to come back!

Everything went smoothly from start to finish. The airport pickup with other guests and the drive to Asco went without a hitch. The handover of our clean Toyota Hilux, the friendly instructions on handling and setting up the tent, and the setup itself were excellent. Our car performed well throughout the entire trip and handled everything with ease. The return was also trouble-free. We were only charged for 0.75 liters of fuel because we hadn't filled up at the gas station directly next to Asco. But for around N$21, that wasn't a problem for us. The drive back to the airport was also super easy. All in all, I can highly recommend Asco.

This was our fifth time renting our Jeep with a rooftop tent from Asco Carhire. All the staff are so friendly, reliable, and very well organized. Any problems are immediately addressed and resolved. Absolutely recommendable and worth five stars. We'll definitely be back. Andrea and Stefan König from Germany

We rented the Toyota Hilux with two rooftop tents for 14 days and drove close to 3500 km in Namibia. The car was amazing and a real pleasure to drive. The camping equipment was exactly what we needed at all times. In addition, the professionalism from Asco Car Hire was top notch. They explained everything in detail when we picked up the car and we felt confident that they would help us with any issue encountered. If we rent a car in a country where they are located, we will rent again with them. 100% recommend!

We had an excellent experience with ASCO Car Hire Namibia. Everything worked perfectly from start to finish. The vehicle we received was brand new and performed flawlessly throughout our trip. We also had a great experience with customer service. When we called regarding the GPS, we received immediate and very helpful assistance. We will definitely choose to rent from them again on our next trip to Namibia. Highly recommended!

We rented a LC79 for more than 20 days and drove over 7,000 km traveling around Namibia. We crossed remote areas such as Orupembe and the Zambezi region, and the vehicle performed perfectly throughout the trip. The car was in excellent condition and they even provided us with new tires, which gave us great confidence on the long and rough roads. Compared to other rental companies, ASCO offers very professional vehicles and well-equipped camping gear. We are extremely satisfied with the experience and highly recommend ASCO to anyone planning a trip in Namibia.

We had an excellent experience with Asco, no unexpected issues and the process of pickup/dropoff was very easy. Staff were all very helpful and thoroughly explained everything upon our arrival. The truck itself was excellent, felt very secure on the bumpy roads and had no problems getting us through some sandy roads on the way to Deadvlei. It was also basically brand new and had Apple Carplay/Android Auto, which was nice. Would absolutely rent from here again.

Hired a Toyota Land Cruiser from these guys for a 2 week trip around Namibia, can highly recommend them. The rental and collection process is very straightforward, the staff take you through all the things that your vehicle has so that you have a good idea of what it can do. The vehicle itself was absolutely pristine, I actually thought it was brand new as it was completely spotless. It actually had almost 20,000km on it so I was way off. Kudos to the team that prepare these for you, when I brought it back it had half of Etosha over it! During the trip everything went brilliantly, no issues with the vehicle or any of the equipment. I ended up using lots of the recovery equipment included to help other people out that had got into a bit of strife. Drop off was fairly simple, and they even dropped me back at my hotel afterwards. I'd certainly recommend and will definitely use them again in future.
