• Should I hire a car in Australia?

  Hiring a car is one of the best ways to see everything Australia has to offer. There are several excellent road trips throughout the country, such as The Great Ocean Road in Victoria and the Red Centre Way in the Northern Territory. Rest stops are common throughout Australia, making it easy to find somewhere safe to pull over and rest overnight or for a few hours. With your own vehicle, you can travel on your own schedule and easily adjust your plans when you want to.

• What is driving like in Australia?

  Driving conditions can vary greatly throughout Australia, depending on whether you’re driving in big cities, through stretches of desert in the outback or through dense forest in the bush. In major cities, you may want to avoid rush hour (usually from 07:00 to 09:00 and 16:00 to 18:00), and it's often easiest to avoid the city centres altogether, as some roads in these areas may be pedestrian zones at certain times. Roads throughout the country are generally well-maintained, including several major highways that can take you through the countryside. However, if you're venturing off the beaten path, you may encounter dirt roads and potholes. Avoid driving on dirt roads when possible.

• How old do I have to be to hire a car in Australia?

  In Australia, you need to be at least 21 years old to hire a car. Most companies will also add a young driver's surcharge for drivers under the age of 25. This is usually an additional daily fee. When you pick up your vehicle, you'll need to bring your driving licence and a credit card in your name. You may be able to pay via debit card or cash, but a credit card is generally required so the car hire company can place a hold charge. While an International Driving Permit is typically not required if your licence is written in the Latin alphabet, it may still come in handy. Conversely, if your licence uses a different writing system, such as Cyrillic or Arabic, an International Driving Permit is usually required.
