Sydney CBD Car Hire
Hire a car from Sydney’s CBD with SIXT. Our CBD location can be found at the Domain Car Park, at the easternmost edge of the Botanical Gardens.

It’s also a short walk from the main ferries at Circular Quay.
SIXT has multiple locations across the city, including Sydney Airport. You’ll certainly find the car and service you’re looking for at one of these!

Explore Sydney CBD with your hire car
Sydney CBD car rental is popular for tourists and visitors to the city because so many of the popular hotels are located in this area. Sydney is a city made up of suburbs that all have their own personality, which you’ll definitely want to get out and explore. Having access to your own set of wheels, just makes this a whole lot easier.
First port of call when you get access to a car should always be to head up to the Northern Beaches. These can be hard to reach on public transport (and take a long time), especially if you’re heading all the way up to Palm Beach, which is definitely one of the best. These are beautiful, quieter beaches than in the city. You’ll also want to pick up the A1 heading south out of the city towards the Royal National Park. It would be very easy to spend weeks exploring this beautiful area, full of waterfalls, secluded beaches and hiking trails. The drive is also thoroughly enjoyable.
Remember, that SIXT car hire terms are incredibly flexible, so you can rent a car for just a night, a couple of days or your entire trip.
