What types of cars can I rent in The Strand?
Keep things low-cost with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or go for something in between, like an intermediate. But it’s hard to go past a compact vehicle — the top pick in The Strand. They’re a cinch to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you’re cruising around cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a bit more comfort and room at a price that’s still nice.
Where can I go on a road trip from The Strand?
Book some wheels, grab the keys and prepare to discover all the sights and sounds of The Strand. But with loads more to see in the surrounding areas, don’t put the brakes on there! Plot your own path to some of the other interesting places in the region:

  • Home to attractions and experiences galore, Germantown is around 193 kilometres from The Strand. First stop of the day? Head on over to Paronella Park, one of this city’s highlights.
  • Dunk, around 153 kilometres away, also promises a good time. Curious what there is to see? Dunk Island Beach is our top pick.
  • No visit is complete without taking in Whitehaven Beach. This famous nature spot is roughly 257 kilometres from The Strand. Breathe in the fresh air and relax!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in The Strand?
Drivers aged 21 and above can road trip around The Strand in a rental car. If you’re a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll generally be limited to a few car categories, such as compact and mid-size, and may also have to purchase inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any restrictions or extra fees apply.
What do you need to rent a car in The Strand?
The main requirements are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking with your home agency to avoid any issues.
What side of the road do you drive on in The Strand?
If you’re renting a car in The Strand or planning a big road trip in Australia, you’ll be driving on the left. Also, the steering wheel and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you’re used to in the U.S. This may feel unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra care.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in The Strand?
Yes, which means you won’t need to rebook a holiday home vehicle halfway through your holiday. Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and find a ride that’s all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find a The Strand car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some The Strand providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some outlets will apply a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
