The large city of Port Gentil lies on the coast of Gabon and is the centre of the region's timber and petroleum industries as well as a leading African seaport. Set on an island in the Ogooue river delta, it isn't connected to the mainland by road bridge. Port Gentil Airport serves regional and domestic flights including services to Pointe-Noire and Libreville, with no international destinations served.

Port Gentil Airport facilities

Port Gentil Airport deals mainly with oil company charters which take workers to offshore destinations as well as with flights to Gabon's capital, Libreville. Passenger facilities are sparse, although car rental in Port Gentil Airport is available on request and is the best and safest way to travel within the city.

Port Gentil Airport excursions

A section of the city is becoming known for its nightlife and hotels, with visitors able to enjoy a casino, a golf course, several beaches and a small zoo. There are few historic attractions here, with most of the development having taken place in the last century. Car hire in Port Gentile Airport makes up for the sparse local transport network and can be used to visit the local swamps, which are inhabited by variety of wildlife.

Best time to visit

The country of Gabon is set right on the equator, with the majority of the land covered with tropical rainforest. The climate is equatorial; very hot and humid year-round in the coastal areas, such as Port Gentil, and its surroundings. To the east is savannah; drier and very remote, with coastal forests and mangrove swamps contributing to the humidity. May to September offers the most comfortable weather for sightseeing.

Car rental in Port Gentil Airport

Driving here is something of an adventure, although there's no distance to cover as the island isn't connected by road to the rest of the country.

Is CompareCarHire.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
