Recent reviews
Carma definitely restored my faith in Tullamarine car rental companies. Hannah was super friendly. Pick and drop off was a breeze. Car got 700kms on one tank. No complaints at all. Thanks team!
I will break my car rental experience (November, 2025) into 3 parts: Turo, car provider and vehicle. Turo. First time to use this app. Overall, simple and intuitive to use. It is a good option when compared to the traditional car rental companies. It was really nice not having to wait at the service rental counter. Car provider. Once you finish with the Turo process, you finalize all the details with the car owner. Daniel was exceptional to work with. He was timely and thorough with his responses to all my inquiries. Our flight arrived earlier than scheduled. I contacted Daniel and he had the car immediately available for my use. He was honest and trustworthy. At the end of the trip, I identified what I thought was a new chip in the paint. He reported it was present before the rental and not an issue. There is comfort in knowing there was no hidden agenda. Vehicle, Toyota Corolla, 2015. Don't let the age or size of the car deter you. The car was clean, dependable and satisfied all of my needs for 2 people. Hawaii may be dramatic with its natural wonders, but it is stingy with the parking spaces and roads (think road to Hana and Haleakala Volcano). We were happy to be driving this car instead of the SUVs and Jeeps that populated the parking lots and narrow, twisting roads. Overall, I would recommend Turo and HIGHLY recommend Daniel and his Toyota Corolla for your car rental needs in Maui.
Everything about this trip and this car rental was amazing. It was very easy to pick up the car. The car was very clean and have a full tank of gas. I would absolutely rent a car with turtle again.
Great car rental service with wonderful customer service! Me and my wife got a nice camaro ss , we drove around the island with the top down and had an amazing time. The best customer service ever, got some tips to make our trip easier. Definitely will rent a car for next vacation with them.
David was communicative, pickup and drop off was easy with clear instructions, car drove well, overall very satisfied with our experience. Great cost friendly alternative to bigger car rental companies with a lot more flexibility, but come with the right expectations (i.e. don't expect a squeaky clean car)
Wow. Just wow. If you’re planning to rent a car while in Oahu, this Ford Mustang convertible is absolutely the way to do it. There’s nothing like dropping the top and cruising along the island coastlines with the Hawaiian sun and ocean views around you. It honestly became one of the highlights of our trip. The car itself was spotless, fun to drive, and perfect for exploring the island. But what really made the experience exceptional was Gabriel. From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and accommodating. Pick-up and drop-off were seamless, and he went out of his way to make everything easy and stress-free for our family. If you’re considering renting a vehicle in Oahu, do yourself a favor and rent from Gabriel. You won’t regret it!
Everything was perfect!!! Thank you so much to Jensen for a great car rental experience. He was super detailed with pickup and drop-off instructions. He even helped us find an available car when our trip dates changed and the original car wasn’t available. AND he was flexible on our pickup/drop-off times if we needed. Another awesome, hassle-free Turo experience! Mahalo Jensen!
This trip was amazing because of our car rental. It was super clean and drove really well. Great on gas. The host was also very attentive and nice :) 10/10 recommend.
Amazing experience with both the car and the host!The vehicle was clean, well maintained, and exactly as described. Everything worked perfectly, and the car made the trip even more enjoyable. The host was very friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout the whole rental process. Communication was easy, pickup and drop-off were smooth, and overall everything felt professional and stress-free. Highly recommend renting from this host — definitely would book again!
Pick up was easy, car was very tidy, car was well maintained. Best car rental so far 🫡
Great service. Car was perfect. So much easier than dealing with rental cars
Perfect car for a quick trip to Oahu. With gas prices on the rise it was a perfect car for cruising around the island. Definitely will rent again.
I enjoyed using this car for my solo trip to Brisbane and back. Easy to use. Has built in navigation and Bluetooth to connect my phone (for music). Host was easy to deal with. Responded promptly. Price also good.
Absolutely amazing experience renting this Mustang through Turo! The car was clean, well-maintained, and an absolute blast to drive. Everything about the rental process was smooth and easy from start to finish. The owner was incredibly friendly, responsive, and made the whole experience stress-free. You can tell they really care about both the vehicle and their guests. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend this Mustang to anyone looking for a fun and reliable ride!
Car quality was awesome. Comfortable and spacious and neatly tidy and well taken care of. Car rental was awesome and smooth and easy and comfortable. Thank you so much Zerin! Mahalo. Hope to rent from you again for more trips coming up.
Very happy with my car rental. Vehicle worked great for going around the island. the pickup and drop off process was super easy and smooth and the host very reliable. Would rent again.
Great communication from Liam, and car had great mileage. It’s a bit older but runs great. This was my first time renting a car for a day on Turo and I had a good experience overall, would rent again and price was very reasonable.

Top tips for hiring a car in Gladesville
About to hire a car in Gladesville? Here are a few top tips to keep in mind.
Sydney road rules and driving conditions
Before hitting the road in Sydney, familiarise yourself with Australian road rules and regulations. Remember that Australians drive on the left-hand side of the road, seatbelts must be worn at all times and pay attention to speed limits and other road signs to ensure a safe and enjoyable driving experience.
If you're driving in regional areas, be aware that animals and wildlife can wander onto the roads. Be sure to drive to the speed limit and do not swerve suddenly, as this can cause cars to roll off the road. Plus, full-license drivers in NSW have a legal BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) limit of under 0.05.
Gladesville's rush hour and busiest roads
One of the busiest roads drivers will need to navigate in Gladesville is Victoria Road. This is one of the longest stretches of roads in Sydney, connecting Parramatta with Rozelle.
Plus, recent changes to the Rozelle interchange have increased congestion with travel time for CBD-bound traffic, with Victoria Road and Gladesville Bridge proving peak congestion spots. Our tip? Try to avoid driving along these peak roads on weekdays from 6 am to 10 am and between 4 pm to 7 pm.
Are there toll roads around Gladesville?
While there are no toll roads directly in Gladesville, you'll likely drive along toll roads and tunnels if you plan to venture across greater Sydney (such as the WestConnex M4, Rozelle Interchange and Harbour Tunnel). Make sure your hire car is fitted with an e-tag prior to departure for a smooth driving experience along toll roads.
Parking in Gladesville
There are many on-street and off-street parking options across Gladesville. For secure off-street parking, head to the John Wilson Car Park (Pittwater Road), Peel Park Carpark (81 Morrison Road) and Riverglade Reserve Parking (38 Manning Road).
Petrol stations and EV chargers in Gladesville
While there are limited spots to refuel in Gladesville itself, the surrounding suburbs feature plenty of petrol stations, including:
Shell (Hunters Hill)
Metro Petroleum (Rude)
BP (Putney)
Plus, there are several nearby electric vehicle charging stations, including the Evie Charging Station at North Ryde and Exploren Charging Station at North Ryde.
Do I need to hire a car in Gladesville?
While Gladesville NSW does have a bus service, sticking to public transport can slow down your travel significantly and limit the number of places you can visit across Sydney.
Take this example: While driving from Gladesville to Bondi takes just 25 minutes, using public transport will take over an hour and require at least two forms of transport.
But with a hire car in Gladesville, you can explore the suburb and greater NSW at your own pace, with the flexibility to visit lesser-known spots and hidden gems across the state.
