  • Bring the right documents and keep pick-up quick and easy. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (no electronic copies) and another form of photo ID. Also bring a credit card with enough available balance to cover the deposit. If extra documents are required, they'll be listed in your booking.

  • Driving in Australia may feel unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stay on the left side of the road.
