Close to the Great Barrier Reef - Cairns in northern Queensland is a popular destination for car rental travellers and those who love extended beaches, tropical climate and water sports. The city is easy to reach by plane: the distance between Cairns Airport (IATA code: CNS) and the centre of the city is only a few kilometres. At the airport you can pick up a rental car after your arrival, which you have booked comfortably from home. On your arrival the rental car will be ready at the airport.
With the rental car of the car rental you are very fast at one of the most attractive meeting places of the city: at the Esplanade. It leads directly along the coast. Here you will find numerous cafés, restaurants and shops. The popular adventure pool The Lagoon is located at the southern end. There is good parking for the rental car in the vicinity of the Esplanade. A nice option is to park your car at the parks at the north end and stroll comfortably along the Pacific.
A sufficient insurance for the rental car of the car rental company is a must. Before concluding the contract, check which benefits you are entitled to in the event of a claim. The agreements for claims settlement may vary depending on the type of car and the provider. In the contract documents of the car rental company you will also find clauses in which cases the protection does not apply - for example in case of negligence or a violation of the traffic regulations.
If you want to rent a cheap car in Australia, a deposit is required. This deposit protects the car rental company against financial risks. Usually, the car rental deposit is paid directly by credit card, which is also used to pay the car rental fees. You will receive the full amount of the deposit back when you return the rental vehicle in the proper condition of the car rental company.
One way or one way rental allows you to rent your rental car in one place and return it to another location. This is an ideal solution if you plan to travel from Cairns - for example to Brisbane or Sydney. As a rule, the car rental company charges an additional fee to cover the increased costs for the return of the vehicle. Rent a car in Cairns and discover the Australian countryside. If you want to explore the city and the outback, we also recommend renting a Motorcycles in Cairns .
The biggest challenge for most European drivers is left-hand traffic. Drivers who are completely unfamiliar with driving links can take a few test laps in a quiet traffic area after picking up their rental car at the airport in order to adjust to the unfamiliar driving style. Overhauled is on the right. There are no national speed regulations. The speed limits are set individually by each state. On unpaved roads in the outback, the speed must be adjusted to the respective road conditions. Fines for violations can be costly - especially near schools. Make sure all car occupants are strapped in. You may not drink alcoholic beverages in public in Australia. Alcoholic beverages are usually transported in opaque paper bags.
It's even more fun to travel Australia with friends and family. If you let another person drive, he must be registered as an additional driver . Usually you can still do this with your car rental company at the airport, even if you have booked the car cheaply online. The additional driver must present the same documents as the main driver when registering.
