Located in the Khomas region, Eros Airport (ERS) is the second busiest airport in Namibia. Despite being smaller than the international airport in Windhoek, its charm and top-notch services make it a favoured choice among travellers.
Car Hire Services
You can hire a car right at the airport from reputable car hire services. Please do remember to compare prices on our website to ensure you get the best deals. For convenient navigation, an SUV is recommended due to the varying road conditions.
Driving in Namibia
Unlike in the UK where we drive on the left, in Namibia, driving is done on the right side of the road. Don't worry, you will get used to it quickly!
Accessibility
While public transport is available, having a rental car gives you the flexibility to explore at your own pace.
Petrol Stations
Petrol stations are less abundant than in the UK. Ensure your petrol tank is full before leaving populated areas. Luckily, there are petrol stations located nearby Eros Airport for your convenience.
Currency and Climate
The local currency is the Namibian Dollar (N$). While credit and debit cards are accepted, carrying some cash is advisable for small purchases. The climate is fairly arid, but evenings can become cold, particularly in the winter months. Remember to pack some warmer clothes too.
Surrounding Cities
From Eros Airport, you have the opportunity to explore the bustling city of Windhoek and beyond. Cities like Swakopmund, with its German colonial architecture, and Walvis Bay with its stunning lagoon and birdlife are only a few hours drive away.
Wrapping Up
While Namibia's driving conditions might differ from those in the UK, with our affordable car hire options and the adventurous spirit in your heart, you're set for the journey of a lifetime. Welcome aboard!
