    Quick and easy and when I rang with a question but my phone hung up was called back promptly (Jason)and when I rang back was answered again in good time (John) by call centre who answered my query concisely without hesitation so my time was not wasted at all. I was struggling with feeling I was a bit short for any extra information I had to search myself but unsure if that was my concern...

Airport Car Hire

Local expert tips for hiring a car in Geelong

  • Toll payments

    Discuss toll payment options with your vehicle supplier upon pick-up as there are a few tolls if driving to and from Melbourne to Geelong.

  • Peak hour traffic

    While Geelong is less congested on the roads than Melbourne, be sure to allow some additional travel time when driving in the early mornings and evenings.

  • Parking

    Parking in Geelong is easy with more than 4,700 off-street car parks and over 5,000 on-street parking spots in the CBD. Parking fees and time limits apply, so be sure to check the signs before leaving your vehicle.

  • Flexible one-way car rentals

    Planning to get a one-way car rental for an interstate trip? You can book a hire car in Geelong and return it to another location. Just untick the “Return to the same location” option in our search form and select your preferred return location.

  • Watch your speed

    The speed limit in built-up areas of the city is 50km/h and 100km/h on highways. Always drive to the signposted speed limit and conditions of the road.

  • Save on fuel cost

    It’s important to return your hire car with a full tank of fuel to avoid extra fees. With so many service stations in Melbourne, it can be hard to know where to find the best deal on petrol. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with our free fuel price comparison app.
