Car,
Campervan and 4 Wheel Drive Hire
|
Another great way to explore the Australian continent is to rent a vehicle. The main road system in Australia is excellent, and for most journeys a car or campervan is sufficient. There are also vast stretches of desert and remote locations such as the Gulf Country and Red Centre, where many fascinating side trips into the wilderness or desert can only be negotiated safely by 4-wheel drive. There are many different vehicle models available, to suite all tastes and budgets.
We recommend purchasing an accommodation package in conjunction with car and four wheel drive hire. This gives you the freedom and flexibility of travelling when you want, where you want, with the assurance of knowing there's a room booked for you at the end of each day.
It is possible to hire cars for one way trips for certain itineraries.
Depending on Car hire company, prices may include various insurance conditions
and some local taxes. Please check our car hire sub-site
for latest when booking for inclusions, exclusions and conditions. A security
deposit is required. The information provided purports to be up to date
but car hire customers will have to refer to the Car hire company for actual
binding conditions at the time of vehicle pick-up.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE INFORMATIONS IN THIS WEB SITE ARE NOT BINDING OR CONTRACTUAL. ONLY THE CONTRACT SIGNED AT THE TIME OF VEHICLE PICK-UP WILL BE BINDING
