Can I rent a car from Cairns Intl. Airport (CNS)?

Here you can arrange your ride with reliable companies like Avis, Redspot/Enterprise and Budget. If you want some more options, check out the deals from Hertz and Europcar.
What happens if I need to cancel my Kuranda car reservation?
We realise that plans can change at the last moment. That’s why many bookings offer a total refund if you cancel at least six hours before the pickup time. Your cancellation policy should contain all the specifics you need. If you can’t find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Kuranda?
Not too small and not too big, compact cars are the number one pick for many visitors to Kuranda. Offering great mileage and easy parking and manoeuvrability, they’re well-suited to travelling around the city. A compact has slightly more space than an economy vehicle, so you can cruise around in a little more comfort. Need a bit more legroom? Check out our intermediate, standard or full-size range.
Where can I go on a road trip from Kuranda?
With your own set of wheels, road-tripping around the surrounding regions is a breeze. Kuranda is a wonderful place to start, but there’s tons more to see in the region. Pick up the keys to a home, fling your bags in the trunk and check out these other terrific locations:

  • Boasting sights and experiences galore, Syndicate is approximately 56 kilometres from Kuranda. First stop of the day? Make your way to Daintree Rainforest, one of the city’s biggest highlights.
  • Germantown, around 97 kilometres away, will also show you a memorable time. Wondering what there is to see? Paronella Park is one of our favourite stops.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kuranda?
If you’re aged 21 and over, you can rent a car in Kuranda. Take note that most home companies will charge young drivers an extra fee, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young motorists often aren’t permitted to rent luxury or specialty vehicles. Thoroughly read the terms and conditions before you book so there are no hassles when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Kuranda?
Before you can take the wheel in Kuranda, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card. If you don’t take out the home company’s insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of other coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you select a home company.
What side of the road do you drive on in Kuranda?
People in Kuranda drive on the left-hand side of the road, and the driver’s seat and some controls are on the opposite side to U.S. Vehicles. Take some time getting comfortable with your new car before venturing out.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Kuranda?
Yes. We partner with quality suppliers that offer weekly and monthly homes for all categories of cars. Snap up one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every corner of Kuranda — or way beyond!
Where can I find a Kuranda car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home companies, so be prepared to do a bit of research. Managed to find a Kuranda supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific! Just be aware that extra charges often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re considering will have all the information you need.
