Discover and experience South Australia with a reliable hire car

New Year Fireworks display in Adelaide, South Australia.

While it could be said for almost anywhere in the country, South Australia really does have something for everyone. With a fascinating — and historic — capital city, a coastline as wild as it is beautiful, a wine-growing region that boasts some of the best tipples in the country, and an expansive outback region, South Australia is a perfect destination for a hire car road trip.

By choosing to explore South Australia by rental car, you’re also choosing the most flexible way to travel. It doesn’t matter if you’re simply interested in pottering around the capital city of Adelaide, or plan to soak up as much of what South Australia has to offer as you can, a hire car brings with it unrivalled flexibility and freedom to visit where you want, when you want — and all at a pace that works for you.

Deciding on hiring a car is one thing, but finding the right hire car for you is a whole other question, and this is where VroomVroomVroom is here to help.

We work with Australia’s most respected car hire suppliers, and collate all of their rates into one space for you to choose from. With VroomVroomVroom you can browse live rates from Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, East Coast Car Rentals, Enterprise, Europcar, Hertz, No Birds, Sixt, and Thrifty, and sort the results by location, price, vehicle type and more. The whole process of searching, sorting and booking can take as little as two minutes, and our best of class customer support is just a call away should you need assistance.

VroomVroomVroom takes the pain out of hiring the right car for your holiday in South Australia, we free you up to concentrate on planning the where and the when of your holiday rather than the how.

Where in South Australia to explore with a rental car

If you’re planning on only visiting South Australia, it makes sense to fly in to Adelaide International Airport where you can pick up your rental car right at the airport. If you’d prefer a hire car pickup in downtown Adelaide, you can do so in many of the city suburbs, including Beverley, Plympton and Salisbury.

Once you have your hire car, a day trip — or longer — to the Barossa Valley is one of the most popular road trips. In the opposite direction, Kangaroo Island offers an experience that is hard to replicate anywhere else in the country. If you’d prefer to simply hug the coast and explore, then far flung destinations such as Ceduna, Port Augusta, and Whyalla all make for great road trips. If Australia’s beautiful outback is more your thing, opal-mining Coober Pedy is a crowd-pleaser, and if you drive that far, why not go for a road trip from Adelaide to Uluru?

If you’ve got the time but are not sure where to go, take a look at our collection of South Australia road trips to get some ideas of where it might appeal to you.
