Hire a car in Geelong with Hertz
Geelong is an Australian city, a few miles south west of Melbourne in the state of Victoria. Geelong is a port city which incorporates the Corio Bay, making it a family friendly destination with beaches, and city amenities. Hiring a car in Geelong is available from the Downtown area of the city, or at Melbourne's airports, and is recommended if you wish to experience and some of the best coastal drives Australia has to offer.
The tourist friendly Waterfront Geelong Precinct, is a good diversion for shopping and affordable dining, and the broader Bellarine Peninsula is quickly gaining kudos as something of a culinary hotspot.

Tourists coming to Geelong are often keen to explore the Bellarine Peninsula, the Victoria coastline, and the city of Melbourne. Cunningham Pier and Eastern Beach are popular local attractions, and for those hiring a car in Geelong, the Great Ocean Road begins in the city. The road has a number of stunning geological and natural features making it one of the most popular drives in Australia. Highlights of the route are the 'Twelve Apostles' (colossal limestone formations jutting upwards from the sea), the Great Otway National Park, and the wine regions, all mixed in with a bit of whale-spotting, mountains and beaches. Rent a car in Geelong and get the most out of Victoria's scenic road network.
Geelong is the perfect base from which to visit a number of local attractions, including Melbourne. Using the M1, you can travel from Geelong to Melbourne in less than an hour.
Take a ride on the famous Melbourne Trams, historic to the city, or explore the family friendly Melbourne Zoo; but perhaps the current must-see attraction in Melbourne is the Eureka Skydeck 88. The Skydeck can make the lofty claim of being the highest public lookout point in the Southern Hemisphere, giving visitors possibly one of the best lookout points for miles around.
