Hire a Car in New South Wales

In the winter months it is a bit fresh for a beach holiday, but New South Wales can still be explored by hired car. In the winter months of Australia, which extend from April to September, trips to national parks such as the Blue Mountains National Park or the Royal National Park are especially recommended. A visit to the city of Sydney is also recommended, as the city has something to offer for every taste.

Discovering the region of New South Wales

New South Wales is a southeastern Australian state, famous for its coastal cities and national parks. Sydney is the capital city of this region and well known for its iconic structures, such as the Sydney Opera House. In this region, you will not only find the metropolitan areas, but you can also explore the inland. Where you will find rainforests, blue mountains and long surfing beaches on the coastline.

Which sights can I visit with the hired car?

New South Wales offers a variety of different sights you can explore with your hired car. It has beautiful destinations regarding nature as well as world cities, such as Sydney. 

  • Sydney Opera House
  • Royal National Park
  • Bondi Beach 
  • Darling Harbour
  • Port Jackson Bay
  • Jenolan Caves

With your hired car, you can experience many benefits, such as being flexible and independent of public transport as well as tourist groups. 

Where can I pick up the hired car?

If you are planning to arrive by plane, then you can pick up your hired car at the airport rental station, for example at Sydney airport (SYD). With the Driveboo.com online comparison service, you can compare the different offers before your journey starts and find the best fitting one for your stay in Australia. 

Driveboo also offers one-way rentals, which means that you return the car to a different location, from where you originally picked it up from. For example, you collect the car at Sydney airport and return it at Bathurst Airport (BHS). 

Take care while driving

This should be noted:

Be vigilant for Australian wildlife, particularly at night as many of Australian native animals are nocturnal. Koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, emus and some birdlife are more active early in the morning and in the evening when the temperature cools.

  • Always remember to drive on the left side of the road

When hiring a hired car, a deposit is required

Deposits are always paid when you pick up the hired car, for example at the Sydney Airport. After returning the car to the rental station, the deposit will be immediately refunded. If you have chosen the option of hiring the car with comprehensive insurance without any excess; and there is some damage found on the car, for example, due to a small rear-end collision, you will still get the full deposit refunded. With this sort of insurance, it does not matter if you have to pay the deposit. We recommend, hiring a car with high insurance is cheaper than paying the costs for an accident and not getting the full deposit refunded.

Which insurance should I take?

If something happens to the car, due to bad road conditions (speed bumps) or an accident - we have several offers regarding insurances. On our website, you can compare the different offers with the price comparison service. We recommend, hiring a car with a fully comprehensive insurance policy without excess. But is it worth it? When booking this option, you are on the safe side. It may not appear to be so cheap at first glance, but in case of an accident, you won’t have to pay any additional costs for damage.
