Brisbane Airport

Al's Australia trip

The only thing I didn't like was:- The original website offered excess cover insurance at 50% off. What it did not say was that this insurance was for use in Europe only and I had to pay Questor an additional sum to get cover for Australia...Make the web pages more honest !!! Otherwise the booking, the car, the pick up and the drop off was absolutely brilliant!!!!!

Perth International Airport

keep the cost down

Easy to use site. Only drawback is that you don't know who you are booking with until you have committed. You can always cancel, though if it doesn't suit. For instance, I wasn't aware that the firm selected was off airport until I received the confirmation. Didn't bother me, and the shuttle service was excellent.

Brisbane Airport

Booking was smooth, car worked fine, price OK

I picked this car up from National in Melbourne, drove to Philip Island and Dandenongs and back, on a few dirt roads too, the car (a Holden) went well, OK on fuel, it was cheapest deal I could find, and the site gave me a few options from different companies, with details of the cars and the extras, what's not included and so on. It all went smoothly. The staff were a bit busy and abrupt but no probs when I brought it back.

Melbourne Airport

Very cheap, good car, somewhat near the airport...

We were visiting friends in Wellington, New Zealand and used 121, who arranged a rental voucher for 'Ace Rentals', a local firm. We got a very reasonable 2006 Nissan with about 80'000 miles on the clock which I am told is good for New Zealand. The only problem was the location, a good 15 minute drive from the airport, but there was a free shuttle so for the money we could not really complain. The car was well maintained and clean, and the staff very nice. I would definitely not call this 'Airport' rental though.

Location information for Sydney

Downtown Sydney is centered around the harbor area and the central business district where financial and government hubs are located. However, it is also home to plenty of historic and cultural attractions along with the finest shopping and dining hubs which Sydney can offer to its residents and visitors alike.

Most of the city's grandest buildings are located in the city center and these include the Sydney Tower and the Opera House. A plethora of colonial sandstone, 20th century granite, and art-deco architecture also give character to downtown Sydney, which can be explored by driving.

The city center is home to the transportation network of Sydney so it is served by a range of public transportation options as well as car rental firms providing car hire in Sydney Downtown. It is easy to drive around the city because Sydney is well signposted, and traffic is often okay during weekends.

Cheap car hire in Sydney Downtown allows you to get around according to your own schedule without having to rely on public buses or taxis just to transfer from one place to another. Drive to the Rocks to see Sydney's colonial village or the Sydney Harbor Bridge, or drive to the Darling Harbor to explore its entertainment and leisure areas.

Car rental in Sydney Downtown is also a convenient mode of transportation for access to areas in Greater Sydney. Find less crowded parks and beaches or explore more affordable commercial centers and shopping venues. Go on a day trip to Bondi Beach or visit the bohemian Inner West district for the Sydney Olympic Park.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Car-Rentals.com the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

Our rates are all-inclusive. Our reservation department will inform you in advance should additional costs apply. You can always cancel your booking free of charge if you do not agree (this must be done at least 48 hours prior to the start of the car hire period).

 What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.
