Day Trips by Car Hire from Sydney
Take a day or overnight trip to the Hunter Valley wine region. There are charming guesthouses to stay at, so you can enjoy the wine without worrying over driving your rental car back to the city. The Hunter Valley, besides the rolling hills and delightful cellar doors, is filled with organic and all-natural restaurants and cafes. Sample the delightful lavender infusions at Laguna Lavender, where everything from soap to creams to honey and jam is laced with locally grown lavender.
Drive out of the city – perhaps with a tent in the trunk of your hire car – towards the Blue Mountains. Meet the quintessential Australian animals including kangaroo, wallaby and koala bears at Featherdale Wildlife Park. Marvel at the Wentworth Falls and the Three Sisters rock formation at Katoomba. Descend the Giant Stairway (Katoomba) and take the Scenic Railway back out of the valley. If you’re fighting fit, you may ascend the staircase, though it isn’t called “Giant” for nothing! Throughout the entire Blue Mountains National Park you can find bush trails and panoramic vista views.
Take your rent a car from Sydney along the Gold Coast to Byron Bay. This is a mecca of chilled out, surfing, bronzed, music playing dudes and dudettes. You’re sure to spot plenty of barefoot, bikini-clad locals strolling along the sunny streets. Artists, musicians and spiritualists tend to gather here, so there is a rich and quirky alternative culture that welcomes all visitors to the community. Try out “couch-surfing” and share your stories with other travellers from around the world.
