Car hire in Australia
Enjoy the freedom of driving yourself around Australia. Hiring a car or campervan allows you to see all the sights on your own time and schedule. Western Australia has a modern road system and most places of interest are signposted. For the more adventurous, try a 4WD from componies such as Avis, Hertz, Europcar and Thrifty.
Campervan hire...
Australia is made for travel by campervan! To hire a campervan in Australia allows you to enjoy the freedom of the Australian Outback, and at the same time save money. With a four wheel drive campervan you can go anywhere, stay anywhere, and you never have to pay for accommodation. Campervan Hire Australia - Motorhome Rental
Campervan Hire Australia Wicked Campervan Motorhome Rental Australia Australia is a huge country, and once you leave the populated coastal areas it's also a rather empty country. Our network of roads and highways is great, but public transport isn't exactly a viable option.
Sure, there are coaches. But they will only take you from major town to major town. And there you will have to pay for accommodation again. Why don't you hire a campervan instead (preferably a four wheel drive campervan), stop at all the beautiful places on the way, and find a free spot to pull up for the night? One of the best things about campervan hire in Australia is that once you leave the populated areas you can almost always find a free place to camp. I have a page about camping in the Australian Outback, and there are even guide books about nothing else but free campsites. Campervan hire in Australia is affordable (especially outside the main season) compared to many other countries. In Australia the campervan hire for your travel will cost you less than you would pay if you spent the time at an average hotel. And the freedom you gain can't be paid for with money...
To hire a campervan in Australia you can choose from the usual international companies like Britz, Hertz, Avis and the like, big companies like Apollo, Maui, or KEA. Or you select one of the smaller Australian companies. The advantage of the big companies is that you know who they are and you know exactly what you will get. These companies buy new cars and older vehicles are rotated out quickly. Big companies are also more widely represented, even in small Outback towns, and it's easier to get one way campervan rentals to many places. All their prices are pretty much the same and I can't recommend one over the other. But you will find that some of the Australian campervan hire companies offer something different by specialising in one particular market segment. One example would be the "Wicked" budget campervans. Those are cheap vans, brightly painted with flowery hippy-style motives, obviously catering to the backpacker market. Other companies specialise in one particular popular part of the country. They might only have two outlets in Australia, say Perth and Darwin, but they would be the ideal company to choose if you want to travel the west coast and the Kimberley.
