Great value rental cars from Canberra’s most trusted car hire providers
The capital of Australia, Canberra offers far more than Parliament House when it comes to considering a visit. Home to world-class museums and galleries, plenty of park land, and a relaxed small city feel, Canberra has more than enough to enthrall first-time visitors. If you’re planning a road trip from Sydney to Melbourne, Canberra is an ideal destination to work into your plans.
The city also forms a perfect base for exploratory road trips — it is the closest capital city to the Australian Alps and is also within easy driving distance of a particularly beautiful stretch of the southern New South Wales coast.

The per-day rates of some rental cars may fall if you book for a longer rental period. Prices often change around daily, three-day, five-day and seven-day periods. Also, note that the selection of rental cars available in Canberra may be more limited if you are looking for a long-term car rental, so it’s best to compare a few different booking durations first.
Being a smaller city it is easy to find your way around Canberra in a rental car, however, there are a lot of roundabouts. Be sure you are confident with the roundabout rules and we would suggest using a navigation system to assist with directions. There are traffic signs that clearly state the speed limit on each road as this differs.
