Australia Car Rental
For part if not all of your stay in Australia, a rental car gives you the added freedom to explore at your own pace.
Driving conditions are excellent, Australians drive on the left as we do, roads are wide and well-maintained and once outside the city, you're likely to have the road to yourself.
