Top tips when hiring a car in Tasmania

  • Book in Advance: Especially during peak seasons, car rentals can be in high demand. Book your car in advance to secure the best rates and ensure availability, particularly if you need specific types of vehicles like SUVs or campervans for exploring more rugged terrain.

  • Understand Insurance Options: Review the insurance options carefully. The basic insurance might come with a high excess; consider whether you need additional coverage for peace of mind. Be clear about what is and isn't covered, including any restrictions on driving off-road or on unsealed roads.

  • Be Prepared for Varied Terrain: Tasmania has diverse terrain, from coastal roads to mountainous areas. Ensure your rental car is suitable for the areas you plan to explore. If heading into national parks or less accessible areas, a vehicle with higher clearance or four-wheel drive might be necessary.

  • Familiarize Yourself with Local Driving Conditions: Be aware of changing weather conditions and wildlife, especially when driving in rural areas. Tasmania has many winding, narrow roads and driving after dark increases the risk of encountering wildlife. Always drive cautiously and within speed limits.

  • Check Mileage and Fuel Policy: Understand the rental's mileage policy—some may offer unlimited mileage, while others set a daily limit. Also, note the fuel policy; most rental companies supply the car with a full tank and expect it returned the same way to avoid additional charges. Ensure you know the location of fuel stations, especially in more remote areas where they are less frequent.
