Hobart Airport rental done right

“Great supporting local businesses. Booking process and communication was excellent. Easy to locate pick up at Hobart airport, price was considerably cheaper than the major brands. Car was very clean and reliable
Will definitely be recommending Drive Car Hire to all my family and friends when travelling to Tasmania”

Kim from Australia, 27 March 2026

“Very competitive price and excellent customer service – had a few questions which were answered and sorted very easily. No pushy sales people trying to sell extras, very easy pick up and drop off from airport. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a car in Tasmania!”

Na from Great Britain, 22 March 2026

“Great experience! Easy booking, helpful customer service person whenever I rang on the phone, competitive pricing, good car options, car in excellent condition and very clean. Add to that convenient drop off and pick up at Hobart Airport and no hidden costs. And the big one for us was being allowed to drive on official dirt roads (we like to visit national parks to go hiking, so that is essential) and allowed to take the car to Bruny Island (again essential for us this trip). So many other companies don’t allow either of these things. I highly recommend Drive and it feels good supporting a local family owned business.”

Thank you, Kim, Na, and Prentice for sharing your recent experiences hiring a car with us.

We are so glad you found our contactless airport pick-up and drop-off services great!

What we don’t do

We value your time. That’s why your airport car rental experience has:

  • No queues or timing pressure at the airport – your car is ready for you and parked right outside for contactless service
  • No hidden costs – we intentionally make our pricing upfront
  • No confusion on damage cover – you select your cover when you make a booking, and we honour it
  • No unexpected vehicle changes – the car you book is the car you get, too easy!

We don’t want travellers to struggle with airport car hire in Tasmania. We love this state and want you to explore the open roads without restriction.
