Hire a car in Darwin with Hertz

Darwin is an Australian city at the far peak of the Northern Territory. It acts as Australia's gateway to the Asian economies - Darwin is surprisingly nearer to places like East Timor and Papua New Guinea, than it is to the famous cities of New South Wales. The city is named after Charles Darwin, and enjoys average temperatures of above 3degrees.

Car hire in Darwin allows you to explore the wealth of famous beaches (including Mindil), and the national parks which the region is renowned for. Hiring a car in Darwin is available from Darwin Airport as well as the Downtown area of the city.

Visitors to Darwin will be struck by the beauty of the city's coastline; Mindil Beach and its markets are renowned in the northern territory, and Cullen Bay Marina is both vibrant and modern. For something a bit different, drive down to Berry Springs and Litchfield National Park via Tiger Brennan Drive and Highway 1 (Stuart Highway) - hiring a car in Darwin is popular as most attractions and population centres surround the famous Stuart Highway.

Alternatively, rent a car in Darwin and take the Arnhem Hwy road east, bringing you to Kakadu National Park - one of Australia's most distinguished parks. Here you'll find Aboriginal rock art and sublime waterfalls.
