Cheap car hire in Albury
KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Albury
- If you’ll be taking the kids on your trip to Albury, it’s important to be aware that Australian car seat rules will apply. Infants need to use a rear-facing car seat, while children between the ages of six months and four years must have a forward-facing or rear-facing child car seat. If your kid is between the ages of four and seven, you’ll need a booster seat or forward‑facing child car seat. All car seats need to be compliant with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1754 and fitted with the appropriate harness. If you don’t wish to travel with a bulky car seat, you can generally book one with your hire agency, even if you've opted for cheap car hire in Albury.
- Whether you’re looking at cheap car hire in Albury or a luxury vehicle, you’ll need to be at least 21 years of age to be the driver. You’ll also need a full and valid driver’s licence. Drivers aged 21 to 24 may incur a young driver surcharge, which is a daily fee added to the cost of the hire. Each Albury car hire agency has its own rules around the young driver surcharge, so be sure to compare a few options through KAYAK and read the terms and conditions before booking the vehicle you want.
- Once you’ve picked up your Albury hire vehicle, you’ll have an abundance of opportunities for short day trips and longer road trips. Woomargama National Park and Burrowa-Pine Mountain National Park feature hiking trails and lookouts. If you’d like to explore the Murray Valley, the drive from Albury to Echuca is ideal, taking you along the Murray River and then down into north-western Victoria. On the way, you can explore Murray Valley National Park and Barmah National Park. Both national parks feature peaceful camping areas and access to the Murray River.
- Albury is a medium-sized city in New South Wales lying along the Murray River, which forms the border with the state of Victoria. Just across the river, however, is Wodonga, its twin city on the Victoria side, accessible by a bridge. Car hire in Albury is, therefore, a very good idea, so that you can move around freely and enjoy all that the Albury Wodonga region has to offer. Lake Hume, which is six times the size of Sydney Harbour, is around a 10min drive from Albury.
- In the arrivals area of the Albury Airport (ABX), there are kiosks for car hire in Albury. You have the choice between Hertz, Avis, Budget and Thrifty. A good idea would be to compare and book your car hire through KAYAK ahead of time, so you can go through the process at the airport with ease.
- Albury has neatly laid-out streets and is easy to navigate. The Hume Highway (M31) connects Albury to Wodonga. Albury follows the New South Wales rules of the road, so remember that you are not allowed to hold a mobile phone while driving, the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05% and you must give way to a pedestrian at a pedestrian crossing or if you are turning left or right at an intersection.
- Driving in Albury is relatively straightforward; however, if you venture along the Murray River to see more of the region, look out for wildlife on the roads, especially kangaroos at or after dusk. It is advised not to drive after dusk in regional areas. Some Albury car hire services will have restrictions on driving on unsealed roads, so if you do want to go off the beaten track outside of town, check with your car hire company that this is allowed.
