Reviews for Gracious Whisp (GW) Car Rentals

My third time to rent a car from GW for 3 weeks. The fortuner was young and perfectly in order. The boss and staff are very friendly and helpful. Another good experience. GW got here a happy and loyal customer.

This is the second time I have booked with Gracious Whisp and I was completely satisfied. This time I got a Suzuki Fronx in perfect condition and it was the perfect car for me at the time.

We were looking for a rental company to rent an unequipped 4x4 for a couple of weeks to tour northern Namibia (Caprivi) and Botswana, and we found GW Car Rentals with excellent reviews and attractive prices. From the first email contacts with Garth and then with Vicky to arrange the pick-up and drop-off at the end of the tour, they proved to be very reliable, kind, and professional. The rental contract is very clear, explained in detail, and has no hidden fees or costs (we opted for GW Full Cover, however). The cross-border documentation (should you need it) is also simple. The off-road vehicle they gave us (a Nissan Navara) was new, clean, and fully functional (including a second spare tire, compressor, and pressure gauge). The portable WiFi was very convenient, saving us from having to buy a Namibian eSIM: combined with the on-board Apple CarPlay, it ensured optimal navigation. We'll be back this winter and renting from them again.

Übernahme und Abgabe perfekt gelaufen und das Fahrzeug war top in Ordung und mit allen notwendigen wie beschrieben ausgestattet.

All was absolutly perfect, team GW and hilux 2.8 GD6 top ! Thanks fo!

absolutely amazing and quick service, clean, neat and professional.

Our experience with Gracious Whisp Car Rentals was outstanding. They were easy to deal with at every step. They went over the car thoroughly with us, so that we'd know how to change a tire and use the included compressor (this fortunately proved unnecessary). When we discovered that there was no petrol available in Etosha National Park, and were worried we couldn't get to the nearest filling station outside the park, we called them and they arranged for a guy in Etosha to drive with us, to make sure we wouldn't be stranded (in the end, we did make it, with about a liter left). We'd happily rent from GW again. We might rent a larger, sturdier car, rather that the Suzuki Jimny, for Namibia's unpaved roads, but GW did warn us that it would shimmy at higher speeds. With rear-wheel drive, it has a tendency a fishtail on washboarded roads, too.

The GW Team is welcoming, always reachable and provide top-quality vehicles at reasonable rates. I can highly recommend GW for your car rental needs in Namibia!

Very nice people, help whenever wie needed it, great car for gravel and sand.

We have rented from gracious whisp on numerous occasions, never had an issue with them. The cars are always in mint condition, the staff are absolutely amazing ( as always ) We cannot fault anything. Impeccable service from stsrt to finish.

We never had any problem with the car during our trip close to 5,000 6,000 kms!!!

Everything was great,crew,assistance and vehicle.

Dieses ist wahrscheinlich die beste Autovermietung in Windhoek. Top Service und To Autos!

Very reliable and professional rental point with good fleet of cars of any kind. Very friendly, professional and approachable staff, starting with Vicky at the front desk, and all the others, drivers, boss, all very friendly people. Had the opportunity to use the service 4x in 2024 and I will always come back indeed if I'm in Windhoek. Thanks very much to all. Igor Vasko

Gracious Whisp exceeded all expectations! From the moment we made our booking, the communication was outstanding—quick, clear, and incredibly helpful. The team was professional and genuinely focused on ensuring we had a smooth and stress-free experience. The vehicles were modern, spotless, and very comfortable. It’s clear they take pride in maintaining high standards. One unexpected but much-appreciated bonus was the onboard WiFi—such a great touch, especially for staying connected during longer journeys. Highly recommend Gracious Whisp for anyone looking for top-tier car hire! Will definitely be booking again!

This team of individuals are really the best - communication is straightforward and to the point. I had the pleasure of dealing with Welda and she really along with Garth runs a good business I look forward to working with you guys and wish you nothing but the best
