Car rental at Kotoka International Airport (ACC) in Accra works on two tracks, and most travellers end up choosing the second: conventional desks - Avis operates at Kotoka with a newer fleet, Europcar runs chauffeur-drive with meet-and-greet, and Hertz is represented through licensed partners - and the broader Ghanaian pattern of hiring a car with a professional driver by the day. The with-driver format dominates for good reason: Accra traffic rewards local knowledge, parking is easier delegated, and day rates compare well against ride-hailing for a full schedule. Self-drive is available for confident drivers staying on the main corridors. Whichever track you choose, book ahead with your flight number - arrivals-hall pickup with a name board is the norm - and clarify fuel and driver-hours terms before you land.
