Where can I go on a road trip from Cheltenham?
With your own vehicle, cruising around the surrounding areas is as easy as putting your foot on the accelerator.

  • Roughly 113 kilometres from Cheltenham, Ballarat is a must-do for many visitors. With top sights like Sovereign Hill, there’s no shortage of things to keep you busy here.
  • Bendigo, around 153 kilometres away, will also show you a good time. Wondering what there is to see? Bendigo Art Gallery is our first pick.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Cheltenham?
Drivers aged 21 and above can hit the road in Cheltenham in a rental car. If you’re a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll generally have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also be required to purchase an all-inclusive insurance rate. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Cheltenham?
Your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ from home company to home company, so read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Cheltenham?
If you hop behind the wheel in Cheltenham, you’ll have to stick to the left. Take note that the driver’s seat will also be on the opposite side to what you’re used to. Consider booking a ride with automatic transmission if you haven’t driven on the left before.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Cheltenham?
Yes, and the good news is suppliers often offer lower prices the longer you rent. Scroll through our long-term car rental deals in Cheltenham and drive off with a real bargain.
Where can I find a Cheltenham car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Cheltenham holiday home providers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 some companies will charge extra fees. It’s handy to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each holiday home car company has its own policies for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
