Hire cars in Canberra?

My family used Canberra Limo last week. They were very satisfied. The pick up was perfect timing. The driver was super friendly and my mum was fascinated with the luxury and said the price was very affordable for such luxury! 🙂 . If anyone is interested in a limo instead of a taxi, give these guys a go.. http://www.canberralimo.com – 02 8310 4337.
Hope that helps.

Yes, I want to give you a suggestion. Why do you wish to hire just a driver instead of hiring a limousine service? It will surely finish your problem completely as they offer you best car with your choice and a highly skilled driver with many more options as insurance etc.

isn’t a hire car really pushing your needs for a simple drive to the airport?

Hire Car is the legal, and less-pretentious, name for a limousine, the same way omnibus is the legal term for a bus.

I used to work in the Hire Car industry. The rates were always reasonable and in the same ballpark as a taxi from the airport. The biggest advantage is that you can book them FROM the airport to home (or wherever), for a FIXED PRICE and they will track your flight and (do their best to) meet you off it even if it is late – at no extra cost (with that little sign)… NO taxi will do that. A few of the drivers were arsehats to work for, but they will treat a customer very professionally, indeed. We rarely had complaints about service and had lots of repeat work/accounts.

It used to be $50 from the airport to Dunlop (when it was about $47 by taxi) – but that was a decade ago… probably a little more $$$ now… but I’d expect it to be within 10% of taxi fare… with cars waaaaaaaay superior to taxi cabs.

Have always arrived on time and with a very nice new clean car. People answer their phone; not some confused computer.

Ring Barry 0408 481 766.

Not hire car but is reliable, has a clean & new taxi that is not a clapped out old Falcon. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Oh, SMS him & he will get back to you. It is a pain for him to recieve bookings while driving.

+1 for Barry!! I used to use him coz he lived close to my house and he’s simply the best in town by a long shot. A really decent bloke and good cars

Ask Kenny Koala. That dude is well versed in the hire car scene

http://canberrahc.com.au/ – never had a problem, drivers are always courteous and on time.

the only other one i’ve used is city limousines for airport pick-ups. generally good, however have had a couple of incidents where my booking has been missed on the run-sheet.
