What types of cars can I rent in Queensland?

And with excellent fuel-efficiency, this reliable home type will have you touring around on the cheap. Want a larger car? Browse our standard, full-size or premium vehicles.
Where can I go on a road trip from Queensland?
With your own wheels, road-tripping around the surrounding regions is as easy as putting your foot on the accelerator. Queensland is an obvious place to start, but there’s tons more to enjoy in the region. Pick up the keys to a home, throw your luggage in the trunk and take a peek at these other terrific spots:

  • You’ll feel the energy of a city bursting with life the second you pull into Moncton. Some 177 kilometres from Queensland, it’s home to a number of fantastic places to visit, such as Magic Mountain Water Park.
  • Saint John, around 177 kilometres away, also promises a memorable time. Curious what there is to see? University of New Brunswick - Saint John is our top pick.
  • Get some distance between you and the fast pace of the city at Cavendish Beach. Approximately 209 kilometres from Queensland, it’s a beautiful place to get a fix of nature.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Queensland?
Usually, the rules are 21 years of age and over in Queensland. It’s worth noting that most outlets will charge a young driver fee. Read the fine print before you sign up, as rules may differ between rental car suppliers. Keep in mind that if you’re planning to rent a luxury ride or a larger car like a premium SUV, drivers may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Queensland?
Any home company you choose will ask for these two things — your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What side of the road do you drive on in Queensland?
Whether you’re staying in Queensland or heading off on a trip around Canada, you’ll be driving on the right side. While this is obviously the same as the States, you will notice differences in traffic rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Queensland?
Whether you have plans to stay in Queensland or travel beyond, it’s easy to book a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip details and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll help you find the best long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Queensland car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home car companies located in Queensland. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that extra fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
