Top Tips for Hiring a Convertible Car in Hobart

  • Whether you are touring Hobart for its hiking trails or rich heritage, getting a vehicle from Hobart convertible car hire firms is necessary. You will find it fun to drive to attractions such as Battery Point, where the buildings from the colonial era stand tall. While a bus takes about 20min to connect central Hobart and Battery Point, driving takes less than 5min. Also, some routes, such as that from Hobart city centre to Mount Wellington, receive no public transport. However, you need about 25min to access the mountain. Once there, feel free to hike to the summit and enjoy a panoramic view of the city sprawling below. Driving to Bruny Island will be exciting and memorable with a convertible car. The trip, for which no buses are available, takes about 1h 40 min.
  • At Hobart International Airport, all flights to Hobart make their final stop. You will find two terminals in the airport which you can easily connect between. Each terminal has a car rental centre operating in the Arrivals Hall. The requirements needed to rent a vehicle include the renters being at least 21 years old and holding an International Driving Permit. Once you complete the paperwork, a Hobart convertible car hire representative leads you to the pickup spot. If you wish to skip the paperwork on arrival and get a discount while at it, rent a convertible car through KAYAK before boarding your flight.
  • Generally, driving in Hobart is fun and easy. Drivers are usually skilled and careful. However, they may drive at speeds lower than the signpost indicated limits. Try not to be in a hurry to overtake in such situations. After all, most of Hobart’s roads are one-way, with sufficient space for a single vehicle. As you drive away from the city centre, it is common to encounter steep pathways that wind down hills. Be careful on such roads as wild animals cross them occasionally after dark.
  • Hobart’s roads are traffic-free except between 8am and 9am and in the evening hours of 5pm to 6pm. On the outskirts, road congestion is nearly non-existent. Some streets to keep off during rush hours in the city centre include Macquarie Street and Davey Street. The Tasman Bridge and the Southern Outlet may also feature traffic build-ups. While highways are usually clear, Tasman Highway clogs up as early as 4pm on Fridays. Since the rush hours are short, you can travel during alternative times to avoid wasting time on the road.

FAQs About Hiring a Convertible Car in Hobart

  • Which is the most reliable convertible car to hire in Hobart?

    If you are touring Hobart with a friend, the Mazda MX-5 is an ideal car to rent from Hobart convertible car hire companies. The two-seater is compact enough to manoeuvre through Hobart city centre and handles well in the countryside parts of Hobart. Its boot space accommodates a large suitcase. If travelling in a group of 4, the Mercedes Benz C-Class Cabriolet can be your pick. The spacious vehicle has four seats and a slightly larger boot.

  • What is the speed limit in Hobart?

    While driving in Hobart city centre, be sure not to exceed 30mph. However, on motorways like the Tasman Highway, you can cruise with a slightly heavier foot and reach 62mph. There are numerous road signs through Hobart to guide you on the road. However, speed cameras are also plentiful, especially on roads like the Southern Outlet, Tasman Highway and Bass Highway. Be careful not to meet a fine due to speeding.

  • Where can I park a convertible car in Hobart?

    If you are not leaving your car for too long, consider parking on the streets of Hobart city centre. You may park for up to 3 hours, subject to a parking fee. There are car parks near the CBD where you can park for longer. These include the parks on Argyle Street and Melville Street.

  • How does KAYAK find such low convertible car hire prices?

    KAYAK compares convertible car hire prices from all major car hire companies such as Thrifty, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless and more to find you the best deal.

We had very wonderful experience with Avis in Tasmania especially staffs were very friendly and helpful. Dipa helped us out getting our car very simple and she also gave us some guidance on which places to visit in Tasmania. We did not had any issues with the car and very convenient to pick up and drop off the car at the airport. So, Thank you Dipa and other staffs for your excellent service. 😊😊

Pros:

Easy to deal with, convenient off site pick up and drop off and very reasonable rates. I would definitely use them again as cars were good and they are by far the cheapest car rental company I have ever used.

Cons:

Dropped off prior to opening time at 7am but didn't get loaded onto bus for 15 minutes. Maybe they could start work 15 minutes earlier to check cars so we can get to airport on time. Also, clients had to work out who should go on first bus to airport based on flight departure times. I think the staff could have organised this. Excess was $5500, we would like to pay a (very) small amount extra to reduce this to $5000 as this is what our travel insurance will cover.

Wouldn't honor my reservation price and tried to charge me over 5X the rate I confirmed with Kayak. She said, "its Christmas week, I can't honor that price." I had to take a taxi into the city and make other arrangements. Don't use Kayak for international reservations.

Pros:

Compact car and efficiency of fuel

Cons:

Poor condition of vehicle. Vehicle made rattling noise from engine, which made us insecure of car breaking down. When defrost / a/c system was powered an extremely loud and disturbing sound came from what I imagine is the compressor. This last condition resulted in lots of vibration in the car when idle.

Great price and quality car. The pickup was a little confusing, as the supplied instructions were to call Apex to arrange transfer to pickup point, but no-one answered the phone, and the system was not working. We just saw the Apex transfer bus at the airport pull up and hopped on randomly. With the Apex depot off site, the car drop-off had to be done before 5pm, which was inconvenient for us, as we had a late night flight. It would have been good to have an extra cost option to be able to leave the car/keys somewhere else for after hours drop-off, but unfortunately this was not an option. But the hire car was good quality, well priced and the staff were great once we found how to get to the depot.

Kayak misleadingly shows this as “in terminal” when in fact it’s a shuttle ride away. The shuttle does not run very often. And they don’t have cars ready (we were told when we arrived that it would be at least an hour because they were waiting on another rental company to send them cars). Sketchy! Avoid!
