Car Hire in Queensland

So, the Sunshine State is calling your name! Well, you better answer. The beautiful and diverse state of Queensland offers some of Australia's best road trips – but there are a few things to keep in mind to make it a smooth ride. Our number one tip is to be mindful of wildlife wherever you are – especially at dawn and dusk. We love Queensland for its vibrant creatures, but these critters use the roads, too. So keep an eye out!

You’ll also want to plan your breaks like you’ve never planned them before. Setting off into the Queensland outback with an empty stomach and the assumption you’ll find a good feed? It’s not always as simple as that. If you are heading off on a camping trip or outback adventure, make sure you check out a larger hire car in Queensland to take all the necessary provisions.

Last but not least, embrace the laid-back life of a Queenslander as you take your trusty rental car on a tour. Take your time, soak up the scenery and always stop at the outback pubs – you’ll never find friendlier folk!
