What do you need to rent a car in Illawong?
You’ll need to present a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name when you get to the home counter. Prior to pickup, check with your home supplier whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Illawong?
In Illawong, get ready to drive on the left-hand side of the road. This is obviously different from driving in the States, so be mindful and concentrate while out on the road.

Age policies differ between holiday home companies, so be prepared to do a little research. Managed to find an Illawong supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? That’s great!
