How Do I Choose My Rental Vehicle?

Choosing the ideal vehicle for your trip isn't always easy.

You might ask yourself: "What's the best camper to rent in Australia?" or "Should I choose cheap van hire?" or even "Will the van break down on the road?"

These are all valid questions to consider when selecting your rental van.

When you use our comparison tool simply enter your pick-up and drop of dates and locations. Based on your age group and the number of people traveling, an initial selection will highlight the best vehicle, the most popular option, and the team's top pick, followed by all other available vehicles for your travel dates.

Next, you'll need to choose based on your personal criteria:

Number of travelers:

The ideal vehicle depends on how many people are traveling with you. Vehicles can accommodate up to 6 people.

Preferred vehicle type: 

Do you prefer a more compact van, or do you desire a campervan with greater comfort? Do you want to go off the beaten path and explore the Outback? A 4x4 would be more appropriate in that case.

Other travelers' reviews: 

Every vehicle is rated by our customers and our team. Star ratings provide a good indication of the chosen vehicle.

Accessories: 

Do you need air conditioning? A large bed? Do you want to be able to take a shower? Do you prefer to have a toilet in the vehicle?

Budget:

Your choice of vehicle will naturally be influenced by your budget. Backpacker vans or equipped minivans allow you to explore the country at a lower cost. Renting a campervan or an equipped 4x4 will offer greater comfort, but also comes with a higher budget. Therefore, it's important to choose based on your comfort desires and your rental budget.

What's the Best Itinerary for a Van Road Trip in Australia?

Australia is an immense continent (roughly 14 times the size of France), so it's rare for travelers to try to see everything at once. Most prefer to follow an itinerary based on their interests.

The country is composed of six distinct states, each with its own unique tourist attractions. Therefore, the choice of itinerary depends on the states and tourist sites you wish to explore.

You'll find all our itineraries in Australia here

New South Wales

New South Wales, with Sydney as its main city, is often the arrival and departure point for travelers. This state, twice the size of France, boasts a superb coast, rainforests, and numerous bays. Inland from Sydney, the Hunter Valley vineyards are a favorite among wine lovers. Similarly, the "Blue Mountains" are a magnificent tourist site not to be missed.

The best time to visit New South Wales is summer, between December and March. If you go outside this period, don't worry; the sun shines almost all year round.

Queensland

Queensland is a very popular region for travelers, as it's never cold there, and there's an enormous amount to see and do. As with most states, activity is concentrated on the coast. You won't miss Surfers Paradise, Brisbane, Cairns, and the many small coastal towns. You'll find activities focused on the sea, water sports, and aquatic activities. The Great Barrier Reef is the prime example. Another major site is Daintree National Park, a lush rainforest that will undoubtedly dazzle you. For families, also plan a day or two to visit the theme parks of SeaWorld, MovieWorld, and DreamWorld.

Northern Territory

The Northern Territory is Australia's most arid and wild state. It's also the least populated, with 200,000 inhabitants spread over an area three times the size of France. It could have been named the "Red State" due to the predominant color of the region and its very hot temperatures. The desert occupies a significant part of the state and is home to the famous Uluru (Ayers Rock). This state contrasts between the desert in the south and the oases in the northern part, such as Kakadu National Park, making this part of Australia a popular stop for visitors wishing to experience the true Australian Outback. This state also has the unique feature of being home to saltwater and freshwater crocodiles. You can take superb boat trips to encounter crocodiles in Kakadu.

Western Australia

Western Australia is the largest state in Australia, representing one-third of the continent. This part of Australia is currently experiencing rapid economic growth due to its tourism, but mainly thanks to its mining activity. It is indeed one of the most active regions in the world for minerals. Western Australia is responsible for 15% to 20% of the world's production of aluminum, industrial diamonds, iron, and nickel.

The main city of this state is Perth, known as the "City of Light." Western Australia can be divided into two parts. The southern part is mainly known for its wines, but also for its surf beaches. The northern part, covering 400,000 sq km, is unique due to its many wild animals, such as kangaroos and dolphins, and its peculiar landscapes formed by caves, gorges, and canyons millions of years old. A stay in Western Australia will allow you to discover the real Australia and its Outback.

South Australia

South Australia is the driest state in Australia; it rarely rains there. The climate is Mediterranean. Ideal for wine lovers, you'll find the best vintages in Australia here. Adelaide is the capital of this state. Also called the "City of Churches," Adelaide is known for its gastronomy and parks. You cannot go to South Australia without visiting Kangaroo Island (30% of the island is protected), where you can admire birds and other animals in the wild.

Victoria

Victoria is the smallest state in Australia, but it encompasses some of the most beautiful national parks in the country. The Great Ocean Road, along the coast, has been voted one of the most beautiful roads in the world. This route is ideal for traveling with your campervan. The main city in Victoria is Melbourne. Considered the fashion and cultural capital of Australia, Melbourne is the second largest city in the country after Sydney.

Which Cities Can I Pick Up and Drop Off My Rental Van in Australia?

Rental companies are located in most major Australian cities, including Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns, Hobart, Melbourne,Adelaïde, Alice Spring, Darwin et Perth.

We also have a few partners who offer pick-ups and drop-offs in secondary cities like Broome, Airlie Beach, and the Gold Coast.

Depending on the duration of your stay, we often recommend a one-way trip between two locations (for example, picking up your vehicle in Sydney and dropping it off in Cairns). While there are one-way fees and domestic flights in Australia can be costly, this will save you on fuel and, more importantly, allow you to make the most of your road trip.

When Should I Book My Campervan in Australia?

It's best to book your vehicle as early as possible. Most rental companies offer dynamic pricing that changes over time (the earlier you book, the better the prices) and availability (especially during peak season) becomes very limited very quickly. Therefore, it's important to book as soon as possible to ensure a wider choice at the best prices.

Additionally, most rental companies offer fairly flexible cancellation policies (generally no fees for cancellations more than one month before pick-up). As soon as you've chosen the ideal vehicle and determined your travel dates, you can book your vehicle to start your Australian adventure.

What Equipment is Included in Australian Rental Vans?

Most rental vans in Australia are fully equipped. You'll receive bedding, kitchen utensils, a gas bottle, and more. While the equipment might sometimes be basic, it's comprehensive, so you don't need to bring your own.

Most vehicles offer radios with USB or AUX ports to connect your devices, but camping tables and chairs, solar showers, and GPS are often optional accessories.

Vans and campervans have a second battery, useful for the fridge and interior lights. Campervans also often include a microwave, but you'll need to be connected to electricity (at a campsite) to use it.
