Sydney Car Hire Is Where The Fun Begins

By Adriana Noton

Before you leave home for your vacation in Australia you can make a reservation for a Sydney car hire. That way you will be able to pick up your car in the Sydney airport. The work will already be done and your holiday can begin with no muss or fuss.

You can choose the company you want to rent from online too. Australia has all the major companies from the number one to the one that tries harder to some you might never have heard of. The important thing is that you can shop and compare. Find out who has the best prices and who has the car you want available when you want it. Check out any special deals and discounts.

Some companies can provide a GPS or mobile phone with your car. Find out if they offer emergency roadside service in case the car breaks down. Ask how often people use their emergency service. The ideal company is one that offers emergency service that no one ever needs to use.

The airport isn't the only place in Sydney where you can rent a car. If you have friends who want to pick you up at the airport and squeeze you into their tiny car and take you home with them for a good meal and a nice visit by all means let them. And then when you are ready to strike out on your own let them take you to a car rental agency convenient to them.

The important thing is you are going to want to have a car because there is so much to see in and around Sydney. You should probably decide in advance what kind of car to get based on what you plan to be doing. If you are going to explore the great outdoors, which New South Wales has in abundance, you might want to get a campervan or a four by four.

Be sure to get a vehicle big enough that you can take your friends along after they were nice enough to pick you up at the airport. They are probably the sort of people who never take time to see the beautiful and historic sites right outside their door. They're like New Yorkers who would never see the Statue of Liberty if they didn't have out-of-town visitors to guide.

Your friends might say that they would love to go on a trip up the coast with you but alas they have only a tiny car that you could barely squeeze into at the airport. But it's not a problem. You can tell them that you have rented a big comfy luxury car or van with room for everybody.

Once everybody is on board you can set out to see the city. The Taronga Zoo, the Royal Botanical Garden and the iconic Opera House are just skimming the surface. But there is much to do beyond the city limits.

Some of the most magnificent scenery in the world is a two and a half hour drive from Sydney. The Sydney Surrounds is home to dozens of national parks and reserves. There are several heritage sights and an amazing variety of landscapes. You can see exotic birds and animals and even swim with dolphins. It's all waiting for you when you make your first stop a Sydney car hire agency.
