At TravelEssence, we specialise in crafting custom-made holidays that take you off the beaten path and create memories to last a lifetime. We believe in connecting with the heart and soul of a place, introducing you to the locals who call it home. Engage in conversations with fascinating individuals who will share their stories, traditions, and way of life, leaving an indelible mark on your journey.
We recommend travelling and exploring Australia by car. Driving in a car gives you the freedom to reach places a campervan cannot. Take it easy and stop along the way and discover the local gems. The question is ‘what size car suits you?’ Compact, Medium or Large. We can help you make this decision.
A compact SUV gives you the flexibility to drive comfortably anywhere in the country, at a relaxed pace. Maximal fuel efficiency, affordable and comfortable to drive. The perfect size for two. Our rental cars have extra ground clearance. Easy to get in and out. Better views.
Our hire cars are less than 6 months old, are well equipped and are well suited to Australia’s roads. We offer full insurance with no gravel road restrictions. And, we know all about the best scenic routes, driving times and distances.
Take it easy. Stop for a swim at the beach. Or take a scenic walk through the middle of nature. We encourage a relaxed travel pace, a chance to get to know the ‘real’ Australia. Be entertained by spectacular landscapes. You don’t need to travel large distances to see dramatic changes.
Our hire cars include insurance with $0 excess as standard. Please note: there are other insurance limitations to consider.
Tourism can be great for the environment, and, with us, you make a positive difference
Let's accentuate the positive, reduce the negative and offset what's left
Sustainability in action"The Great Ocean Drive in Western Australia must be one of the most beautiful stretches of road in the world."
