Hire a car in Launceston with Hertz

Launceston is Tasmania's second major city and home to the most popular tourist attraction on the island: Cataract Gorge. Tasmania has a thriving tourist industry, and Launceston is one of the preferred destinations for tourists due to its plush hotels and vibrant city centre. The city is a good base for anyone who takes up car hire in Launceston, due to its position not far from the Devonport Ferry terminals, and its access to Ben Lomond National Park, and the Tamar River. Hiring a car in Launceston is available from the airport and the downtown area of the city.

Launceston is blessed with a host of Tasmania's top attractions, number one being Cataract Gorge, which has the longest single span chairlift in the world. The City Park and its monkeys are always popular, and the Tamar Valley forms part of the Wine Route - one of the most scenic drives in Australia. Hiring a car in Launceston is vital if you want to see the beautiful and somewhat essential countryside that surrounds the city. Rent a car in Launceston, and head for the astounding Tamar Island Wetlands on the West Tamar Road, and follow the road signs for the Wine Route. George Town and Devonport are both cities well-worthy of a visit.

Launceston is bustling hub of life and attractions, but most people are keen to get on the road and discover northern Tasmania.
