Geelong Guide

Geelong is a city in approximately 75 kilometres from Melbourne, the capital of Victoria. Grab a car hire and explore the second largest city in the state today. Named in 1837 by Richard Burke, the Governor at the time, Geelong is a port city located on the Corio Bay (an inlet bay of Port Phillip) and Barwon River. The Ballarat goldrush in the 1850s increased the population of Geelong dramatically, and it was officially declared a city in 1910. As the city grew it cemented itself as the industrial centre of the state, and nowadays Geelong calls itself the 12th largest city in Australia. Indeed, the growth rate of the population is higher than that of the national average.

The name Geelong is thought to have come from the Aboriginal .jillong., meaning land or cliffs. On a clear day, you can see the Melbourne city skyline from Geelong, and the water front provides not only the opportunity for business but also pleasure. The Geelong waterfront is home to office and restaurant alike, so pop in while you have your car hire and spend the day at the beautiful seaside of Geelong.

Why not try and plan your trip to coincide with one of the many festivals or galas that Geelong hosts during the year? Events include the International Airshow, the National Celtic Festival, the Skandia Geelong Week (the largest yachting regatta in Australia) or the Cycling championships . any number of other sporting events are held at Geelong, so for the armchair sportsman, grab a car hire and head on down to Geelong for your share of sports!

Geelong has featured in film and television, too . keep an eye out for it in such shows as .Seachange., .Mad Max., .Ghostrider. and .Ned Kelly..

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).
