What Makes All Day Car Rentals Stand Out?
From the bold buzz and exhilaration of Cairns to the peace and tranquillity of the Port Douglas, Australia is packed with tourist attractions. In Cairns, you can visit famous sites, take a stroll through our lovely markets, eat local tropical fruits, and experience world-class rainforests and cuisine. Operating from Cairns airport, All Day Car Rentals provides the very best customer service in the region.
We continue to get excellent reviews from our clients with more than 91% of our patrons saying they would book again through us. The feedback we typically receive is in praise of our affordable pricing, the range of vehicles available, user-friendly website, guidance and support.

Guide to a Successful Cairns Car Hire Experience
Reserve Your Vehicle In Advance
Plan ahead and book in a car rental as soon as possible to avoid missing out. This is because, in the course of the peak seasons or a few ongoing exclusive events, the supply of hire cars in the region might be limited.
Rent With A Debit Card Rather than A Credit Card
If you have the option, be sure to use a credit card as an alternative to a debit card. When you utilize a credit card, you will have to pay an additional 2% surcharge in addition to your car hire charges. Additionally, you are demanded to pre-authorise an amount as much as your chosen excess on your credit card as a type of security deposit. Your credit has no surcharge for the pre-authorisation. This amount of money would be ‘held up’ by your financial institution, and it will take your banking company a little bit of time to discharge this money back to your account.
Minimize Your Responsibility
Regardless of how cautious you are, in some cases, accidents do occur. We suggest you apply for our Premium Reduction Waiver to minimise your liability. Provided that you do not violate any traffic laws or ordinances to involve yourself in a car accident, or violate any terms and conditions of the rental contract, our PRW would substantially restrict the number of damages you will have to pay.
Stipulate Other Drivers
If you are planning to have more than just one person driving the vehicle, kindly identify any additional driver(s) that will be operating the vehicle. In the case of a collision, if the operator of the rental car is not identified in our agreement, any PRW obtained would be invalid.
Allow More Time Throughout Peak Seasons
To prevent hold-ups, organise properly to give yourself some buffer time for picking up and returning your rental car, particularly during the peak seasons. At peak times, it might take much longer than anticipated to await your time to get assisted at our office. Aim to choose an appropriate pickup or drop-off time to give yourself more flexibility so that you do not need to race to the airport or other places.
Follow and Comply with The Traffic Rules
Traffic Violations are very expensive and inconvenient. Be sure to learn the traffic laws in Cairns and throughout all of Australia.
Pay Your Parking & Fines
It helps to learn in advance where you can park your rental car. Always remember to pay your parking fees. Do not park unlawfully and if you regretfully get a fine, please pay promptly to prevent additional consequences or fines.
Child and Car seat
According to the age of your child vacationing with you by car, by law, you might need either a child seat or a car seat for your little one. A front/rear-facing baby seat is appropriate for an infant weighing as much as 18kg. While a booster seat is ideal for a young child weighing between 14kg to 26kg. Both the baby and booster seats are available for hire from All Day Car Rentals.
Required Age & Surcharge
To hire and drive our rental car in Cairns, you must possess a valid appropriate driver’s licence and be at least 21 and not over 80 years old. There won’t be any young driver surcharge if you are between 21 and 24 years old. The excess however is $200.00 higher when reduced down from $3000.00.

Where To Take A Rental Car In Cairns
Cairns is a beautiful part of Australia, home to many natural attractions and cultural landmarks. During your trip to Cairns, make sure you check out Kuranda, a mountain village known for the Kuranda Scenic Railway and the Skyfall Rainforest Cableway which offers gorgeous views over the ocean. If you want to relax while you’re here, spend an afternoon enjoying the sandy beaches of Palm Cove or enjoying a swim in Cairns Lagoon. If you want to explore more of the natural beauty around Cairns, Josephine Falls is an absolute must-see.
There are plenty of exciting options for travellers who want to go off-road with a 4WD or ute hire, too. Turn off the Kennedy Highway between Kuranda and Mareeba towards Emerald Creek Falls to do the Mt. Haig Circuit, also known as the Tinaroo Range Roads. This gorgeous route will take you near Emerald Creek, a natural stream that flows through the local rainforest. The Wooroonooran National Park is also home to plenty of wet tropics wilderness roads including Maple Road. This drive is perfect for campers and adventurers looking to get away from the sounds of the city and explore Queensland’s wilder side.
