Sydney, Australia Down Under Rental Car Tour

Our "Down Under" Self Drive Rental Car road trip through Australia will take you through the states of Victoria and New South Wales. You will get to know the vibrant cities Melbourne and Sydney and discover special landscapes such as the Great Ocean Road on the south coast of Australia, the Murray River and the wine-growing areas of Routherglen. Keep in mind - in Australia there is only left-handed traffic! Other highlights on this Self Drive Rental Car Tour are a harbor cruise in Sydney with dinner and a ride with the steamboat on the Murray River. Finally, full of new impressions, you arrive back in Melbourne.
