Car Rental, Campervan hire or bring your own car with you!

Once you have arrived in our island state there are a number of ways of getting around. At
Tas Vacations we recommend for stays of 2 weeks or less, hire a car or campervan as these are cost effective ways of experiencing Tasmania. If you are coming for more than 2 weeks it may be more convenient to bring your own car on the Spirit of Tasmania.

You may use our site to prepare a holiday costing to compare prices. Or alternatively talk to us in Hobart (1800 030 160 Toll Free within Australia) for answers to your questions.

We recommend Thrifty car hire as all of their cars are less than 6 months old, they have 24 hour roadside assist and they offer the largest cars in each class – ideal for touring and carrying luggage. Thrifty is also the only car hire company with sports cars on fleet!

For campervans and motorhomes we recommend Britz for great vehicles at great prices. All vehicles are new or near new with great fit outs of all the gear you need.

 

Please note that Tasmania does have some sections of road that are subject to ice so please take care. Our roads are generally cleared of snow in winter and in most parts of good condition. Our recommendation is to take your time and enjoy the ride!
Tasmania is lucky to have abundant native animals, Wallabies, Kangaroos, Quolls, Devils, Wombats and Echidnas. As these animals are nocturnal, please take extra care from dusk until dawn as you will see these animals near our roads. You will see some animals that have been killed the previous day, a reminder of the wildness of the areas that you are travelling through.

We supply free touring maps with our packages – a great help to avoid getting lost!
