Have you ever heard of the one-way rental? The one-way rental option allows you to customize your trip through Victoria and the rest of Australia as you don't have to return the car to the point of origin. Rather, you can pick up the hired car at the location of your choice and return it to another hired car company at the end of your journey.

If you're planning a longer trip through Australia with a hired car, the additional driver option is a good idea. If you specify an additional driver when booking your hired car, you can take turns driving the car. So if you're exhausted from a long drive, you can just give up driving for a while, sit back and enjoy the view.

Coast in Victoria

Before you start your holiday with a hired car, you should consider a few things:

  • Australia has left-hand traffic, so you may have to get used to the road traffic, especially at the beginning.
  • Do not underestimate the distances between your starting point and your destination
  • Watch out for animals on the roads
  • As there are many unpaved roads in Australia, make sure that the road you are driving on is suitable for your hired car
  • Refuel regularly, as it is possible that there will be no gas station on a longer stretch of road.

Young drivers

In Australia, the general driving age is 18 years and older. However, most car hire companies charge a young driver surcharge for young drivers who are under 30 years old.

To get the most suitable offers for you, simply enter your correct age in our booking mask, so that all displayed offers are already tailored to you.
