The Europcar car hire experience at Cairns Airport

Whether you’re just spending a couple of days in Cairns, or you’re travelling all the way to Brisbane, our car hire is great value and convenient, helping you get to where you need to be with the least amount of hassle.

If you’re planning on staying local, a budget car such as the Holden Commodore is a great choice. For longer journeys, or if you have more passengers to accommodate, you’ll be wanting something more roomy such as the Isuzu Mux, or even the 8-seater Kia Carnival.

Rent one of our vans or utes if you have goods to transport, or even if you’re moving house!

We offer a friendly, flexible service with daily, weekly and monthly car rental options covering both short and long-term car hire needs. Our three-step booking process is hassle-free and when you arrive at our station, our highly trained staff will get you on the road as quickly as possible. Plus, you can pick up and drop off at different locations to suit you.

Car rental from Europcar is great value and convenient with no hidden charges, just competitive year-round prices, flexible deals and a great choice of vehicles. What are you waiting for!

Discover Cairns and surroundings by car

This busy tourist city is a popular base for trips to the Great Barrier Reef, and for most visitors this is definitely something they want to tick off their bucket list! While you’re in town, the Esplanade Lagoon is a great place for a relaxing swim, and then head to The Pier marina for food and drinks while you admire the views.

Heading away from the coast to explore some of inland Australia, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Barron Gorge National Park is a 30 minute drive from Cairns. Don’t miss a trip on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway while you’re here - the 7.5km cable car ride takes passengers over the stunning rainforest, giving a birds-eye view of the lush landscape. Choose the glass-bottomed gondola if you’re feeling brave!

If you fancy a longer trip, 200km away are the Chillagoe Caves, in what was once a thriving mining area. The 400 million year old cave system comprises over 700 caves and was formed from volcanic activity, producing spectacular outcrops, caves, caverns and passages. Guided or self-guided tours are available so you can explore the caves and discover bats, snakes and even evidence of Indigenous occupation going back 37,000 years, including cave paintings.

With 70 years of experience in car rental, Europcar is the European leader in car rental. To find out more, visit our dedicated car rental page! And for details of our great value van rental service, take a look at our van rental page.
