Hobart car rental experiences: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travellers who rented a car in Hobart 
Verified travelerApr 2024
With Apex, car depot is off-site and drop off needs to be done before 5pm, so take this into consideration with flights and your plans. The Apex transfer bus continually runs back and forth from their depot, no need to call, no staff to answer the phone when busy, probably how they keep the costs down. Just look for the transfer bus with Apex on the side. Tassie has very short peakhour periods, easy to get around if you avoid these when travelling around Hobart. Not a lot of people in Hobart, but lots of right hand turns across freeways, causes carnage when traffic builds up. So banking up of traffic can happen in both the left and the righthand lane. Stay in the middle lanes when traffic gets busy if not exiting freeway.

Don’t rent from either RentalCars.com or Bargain Car Rental. My experience with SIXT was great, although their price for this last-minute rental over Christmas was outrageous.

Best to go with Avis rental car service 😉.

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Hobart

  • It is highly advantageous to rent a car in Hobart as the public transportation in the city is somewhat limited. The main form of transit available is the public bus, but for groups or families visiting Hobart this likely won’t be as efficient or comfortable as a rental car. Also, if you plan on visiting any of the neighboring attractions such as Wellington Park (21 km or 13 miles away), it is often cheaper to drive there yourself rather than joining a tour.
  • Looking to pick up a rental car upon landing in Hobart so you can begin your Tasmanian journey? If your flight is arriving at Hobart International Airport, you will find all the airport’s various rental car counters located in the Arrivals section of the airport.
  • Driving in Hobart is a simple and easy affair for the most part, but there is one thing to remember when heading out onto the roads outside the city -- namely, the winding roads. Many of the roads and highways can be surprisingly curvy as they move up and down the hills, so caution is advised. This is especially the case in difficult weather conditions such as rain or snow.
  • Rush hour in Hobart starts off in the morning around 6:30 a.m. and lasts until 9:00 a.m. throughout the work week. The afternoon traffic picks up around 4:00 p.m. and finishes shortly after 6:00 p.m. Most of the streets don’t feature too much congestion but Davey Street is one to avoid if possible.
  • Book your rental car in Hobart at least 3 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Hobart are around 43% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Hobart

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Hobart?

    Smaller vehicles such as sedans, coupes, and compacts are certainly some of the best options for would-be renters visiting Hobart. The city’s central business district has a few one-way streets that make smaller cars a more attractive option for many drivers. Also, the smaller parking spaces typical of the city’s streetside parking may not fit larger vehicles.

  • What’s the speed limit in Hobart?

    The speed limit starts off at 30 km/h (18 mph) in residential areas and up to 50 km/h (31 mph) on urban roads. Out on the highways and motorways, the speed limit jumps up to 100 or 110 km/h (62 or 68 mph) depending on the size of the road and whether it is divided or not. On gravel roads, which are found outside of the city in smaller communities, the speed limit is 80 km/h (50 mph).

  • Where are the best places to park in Hobart?

    The downtown area of Hobart has plenty of parking garages and lots available. Drivers should have no issue finding parking even during the busiest parts of the day. Outside of the city center, though, streetside parking is often the best option as the streets in the peripheral areas tend to be on the more spacious side.

  • How much is the price of fuel in Hobart?

    The average price of fuel in Hobart is ₹ 345 per litre over the past 30 days. Filling up a petrol tank costs between ₹ 4,139 and ₹ 5,519, depending on the car size.

  • What is the most popular car hire in Hobart?

    Compact (Kia Stonic or similar) is the most frequently booked car hire type in Hobart.

  • How can I find car hires near me in Hobart?

    Take a look at our extensive car hire location map to find the best car hire deals near you.

We had very wonderful experience with Avis in Tasmania especially staffs were very friendly and helpful. Dipa helped us out getting our car very simple and she also gave us some guidance on which places to visit in Tasmania. We did not had any issues with the car and very convenient to pick up and drop off the car at the airport. So, Thank you Dipa and other staffs for your excellent service. 😊😊

Great price and quality car. The pickup was a little confusing, as the supplied instructions were to call Apex to arrange transfer to pickup point, but no-one answered the phone, and the system was not working. We just saw the Apex transfer bus at the airport pull up and hopped on randomly. With the Apex depot off site, the car drop-off had to be done before 5pm, which was inconvenient for us, as we had a late night flight. It would have been good to have an extra cost option to be able to leave the car/keys somewhere else for after hours drop-off, but unfortunately this was not an option. But the hire car was good quality, well priced and the staff were great once we found how to get to the depot.

Kayak misleadingly shows this as “in terminal” when in fact it’s a shuttle ride away. The shuttle does not run very often. And they don’t have cars ready (we were told when we arrived that it would be at least an hour because they were waiting on another rental company to send them cars). Sketchy! Avoid!
