Car Hire Albury - Mini guide to Albury

Albury is a beautiful old city located in the Australian state of New South Wales. Approximately 5.5 hours drive in your car hire from the capital Sydney, Albury boasts many exciting attractions in and around the area . so any holiday can be guaranteed fun for all members of the family, and any business trip need not be dull (apart from meetings, maybe!).

Make sure you take some time out of visiting Albury, using your car hire to get to the many wineries located just a short drive from the city centre. Rutherglen is easily accessed with a ordinary old sedan car hire, although the area is by no means ordinary. Cheeses, wines, and other gourmet foods can be found in the most unassuming places, so be on guard while travelling around.

Back in Albury itself, the conveniences of any large city are on offer, such as large hotels or clubs. However, being a city settled in 1824, it also houses many features found in areas of that era. Large old buildings (the Court House dates back to 1860) and spacious parks and reserves (the Botanic Gardens were opened in 1877) are sprinkled through the city, and its land it steeped in history.

Burrows House was first built in the 1860s and has worn many hats, including home to the council offices, Crown Lands Office, and more recently being converted for community use. It is named for the 1916 mayor Percy Burrows, who served when electricity first came to the town and Burrows owned a flour mill.

The Gardens were opened by the mayor at the time, William Jones, and the Elm Avenue found therein dates back to 1877. Park your car hire and explore the gardens, then venture into the town and discover all Albury has to offer.
