Things to see and do with a rental car in Launceston

Launceston is Tasmania’s northern city, and is naturally a gateway to the island’s coastal gems and incredible attractions. Within the city itself you’ll find a number of world-class spots such as the stunning Cataract Gorge and Tasmania Zoo. Home to both exotic and native animals – including the iconic Tasmanian Devil – Tasmania Zoo offers an unmissable hands-on wildlife experience that the kids will love!

For anyone looking to soak up some culture, there is also the historic Franklin House and the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery to check out. Meanwhile, if you’re keen to test your skills on the green, you can head to Barnbougle Golf Course. Our vans and buses are very popular with groups headed there. Outside of the city, Tasmania offers a smorgasbord of natural attractions to visit, such as the endless beauty of the east coast and towns such as St Helens and Bicheno, as well as the north-east coast with its vineyards and wilderness. Pack a picnic and take a stroll through the bushland – you won’t regret it.

Tips and advice when visiting Tasmania

When you return your rental, it’s a good idea to fill up at the petrol station just 1.5 kilometres from Launceston airport.

You can take SIXT car rental vehicles on any mapped roads, however you’re not covered for damage while the vehicle is on the Bruny Island ferry.

Second time around for SIXT after a less than satisfactory experience at Launceston Airport when a delayed flight meant the desk operator left for the evening knowing there were cars booked by in-bound passengers. Pleased to say this time around the process from pick up to drop off was seamless and true value for money. We are consumers who believe in giving providers a second chance and Im glad we did on this occasion đź‘Śâś…

It was a very easy process. Staff were very helpful and patient. The car was clean and tidy. Ready for pick up. I would definitely use Sixth on Amy future trips. They made our trip most enjoyable. MaryAnn

Great service in Launceston. Take care with ordering a “mystery car” on third party sites though - the description is not always accurate. Also I would warn against the insurance options offered by third parties - we purchased it to find that it was a reimbursement program - any claims for damage from Sixt would still need to be paid in full first. In the future I will deal directly with the company.
