What happens if I need to cancel my Northern Australia car reservation?
We understand that plans change unexpectedly. That’s why many prepaid rentals allow for a total refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before the pickup time. Your rental agreement should have all the details you need. If you can’t find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Northern Australia?
Affordability, ease of parking and superb mileage are some of the reasons compact vehicles are the number one pick in Northern Australia. Their smaller size makes them perfect for getting around the city. They’re a great fit for solo adventurers, couples and families on a budget. Of course, how you cruise around is your call! Go even smaller with a mini or economy, or give yourself more space with a full-size or an intermediate. Need a little luxury? Browse our premium options.

Where can I find a Northern Australia car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Northern Australia companies will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll want to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young drivers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
