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!

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 renting a car in Victoria
Renting a car in Victoria is simple when you know what to expect. These driving tips will help you navigate local roads with confidence, wherever your plans take you.
What documents and paperwork do you need to rent a car in Victoria?
To rent a car on Turo in Australia, you must create a Turo account, have a valid driver’s license, get approved to drive on Turo, and be 21 years old or older. When you’re booking your first trip, you’ll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver’s license and some other information. In most cases, you’ll get approved immediately, and you’ll be set for all future road trips, day trips, and business trips!
What are the road rules and driving conditions in Victoria?
Driving in Victoria means adjusting to fast-changing conditions, from peak-hour gridlocks to winding alpine passes. In Melbourne, heavy traffic builds around the Monash Freeway (M1), the Eastern Freeway (M3), and CityLink during the usual peak hours of 7:00–9:00 AM and 4:00–6:30 PM on weekdays. Watch for hook turns in the CBD, especially at intersections like Elizabeth and Flinders Street– and stick to signed limits, which generally sit at 50 km/h in urban areas and up to 110 km/h on freeways.
Heading towards the Victorian Alps or the Otways? Snow, fog, and rain can affect visibility and road grip in colder months, especially in the high country. Summer brings the dry heat inland, where gravel roads may kick up dust and reduce traction. Be prepared for longer drives between fuel stops and keep water on hand — the range between major towns can be significant.
Local laws are strictly enforced and include mandatory seatbelt use for all passengers, strict speed monitoring, and blood alcohol limits of 0.05% for full licence holders. Using your phone while driving must be hands-free only. It doesn’t matter if you’re on a scenic road trip or making a quick city dash — all road users are expected to follow the rules. For customers using Turo, the flexibility of booking your car hire ahead of time means you’ll be covered with a vehicle that suits the local conditions, trip type and terrain.
Are there toll roads in Victoria?
Victoria’s toll roads include CityLink, which connects Melbourne Airport to the CBD, and EastLink, which stretches through the south-east suburbs. Both are located in and around Greater Melbourne.
Do I need to hire a car in Victoria?
A hire car opens up every corner of Victoria — from boutique wineries tucked into the Macedon Ranges to the remote reaches of the Grampians. Travelling by bus or train only gets you so far, and many top destinations are located outside city limits. With Turo, you’ll find car hire options across convenient locations that match your plans. The average traveller can customise their ride, pick up close to home or their accommodation, and switch gears for a weekend, a long-haul road trip or anything in between.

Booking a car rental through Turo means you’re free to explore beyond the guidebook — no hassle, no tight itinerary, just you and the open road.
- Wedding car rental: Couples tying the knot at iconic venues like Stones of the Yarra Valley or The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Trentham often opt for luxury vehicles or vintage classics to elevate the moment.
