Great experience with this hire car. The car was basically brand new, super clean and drove beautifully. The price was very fair, and the host was incredibly easy to deal with—super responsive and genuinely lovely. Would definitely book again!
I had an excellent experience with Barkhas Car Rental. The customer service was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. The team genuinely went the extra mile to make sure everything was smooth and stress-free, and they did it all with a friendly, welcoming attitude. It’s not often you come across service like this — professional, efficient, and delivered with a smile. I honestly couldn’t fault them at all. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be using them again in the future! (This Tuesday lol)

Before hitting the road in Brisbane, familiarise yourself with road rules and regulations in Australia. 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.
