Services

Everything R&H do, in one place

Nine services, all starting from the same desk inside Chileka International Airport. Each has its own page with what is included and who it suits.

Self Drive Car Hire

Take the keys and go

Self drive is the simplest arrangement we offer: you hire the vehicle, you keep the keys, and you go where you like for as long as you have booked it. No driver, no schedule, no waiting for someone to come and collect you.

  • Collection and return at the airport desk
  • Any vehicle in the fleet
  • Daily, weekly and monthly hire periods
  • Visa card payment accepted at the desk
  • Collections and returns at the airport desk

Chauffeur Drive

Our vehicle, our driver, your schedule

With chauffeur drive you get the vehicle and a driver who knows the roads. For most visitors this is the more sensible option: Malawian roads are shared with minibuses, cyclists and livestock, junctions are not always signposted, and driving after dark is genuinely demanding.

  • Vehicle and professional driver
  • By the journey, the day, or ongoing
  • Any vehicle in the fleet, driver included
  • Available during airport hours
  • Airport, hotel or address collection

Airport Transfer

We are already inside the terminal

Our advantage on airport transfers is not a claim, it is a location: R&H have a staffed desk inside Chileka International Airport. You are not calling a number and waiting for a car to drive out from town — you walk up to a counter and speak to someone.

  • Staffed desk inside the terminal
  • Arrivals and departures, both directions
  • Vehicle matched to passengers and luggage
  • Flights met by prior arrangement
  • Visa card payment accepted at the desk

Blantyre Taxi Service

Point to point, on demand

Alongside the hire fleet, R&H run a straightforward Blantyre taxi service — a single journey from where you are to where you need to be, with no hire agreement and no deposit.

  • Single point-to-point journeys
  • Vehicles from our own maintained hire fleet
  • Book at the airport desk or by WhatsApp
  • No deposit or hire agreement
  • Available during airport hours

Hotel Pick-ups

Collected from reception, not a rank down the road

Not every hire starts at the airport. If you are already staying somewhere in Blantyre or Limbe, we will collect you — or deliver the vehicle — at your hotel or lodge reception.

  • Collection from hotel or lodge reception
  • Vehicle delivery to your accommodation
  • Multiple pick-up addresses on one booking
  • Return drop-off at the same address or the airport

Group Transfers

Everyone in one vehicle, or a convoy that arrives together

Moving a group is a different problem from moving a person. The eight-seat Toyota Voxy handles most of it in one vehicle — with sliding doors and a tall cabin, it takes a full party and their luggage without anyone travelling separately.

  • Eight-seat vehicle with luggage space
  • Multi-vehicle bookings coordinated together
  • One point of contact for the whole group
  • Airport, hotel or venue collection

Excursions

A vehicle and a driver for the day

Malawi rewards day trips, and most of the good ones are within reach of Blantyre. The Zomba Plateau road, Mount Mulanje and the tea estates around Thyolo, Liwonde on the Shire River, and the southern lakeshore are all comfortable outings with an early start.

  • Vehicle and driver for the day
  • Any destination you choose
  • Vehicle matched to the road and the party size
  • Early starts and late returns

Monthly Rentals

A car of your own, by the month

For anyone here for weeks rather than days — consultants on assignment, expatriates between vehicles, organisations with staff in country for a season — monthly hire is the arrangement that makes sense.

  • Month-by-month hire on any vehicle
  • Discounted against the daily rate
  • Self drive or with a driver
  • Extendable month to month

Long-Term Leasing

Discounted rates for committed terms

Long-term leasing is for organisations that need a vehicle continuously and would rather not buy one — NGOs and projects with a defined lifespan, businesses opening an office, and anyone who wants the vehicle without the ownership.

  • Extended terms at discounted rates
  • Any vehicle in the fleet
  • With or without a driver
  • Terms agreed per organisation

Every service uses the same six vehicles

Whether you drive yourself or we drive, the car is one of ours — maintained by us and collected from our desk.
