Canberra Airport Car Hire with a Debit Card
Car hire with just a debit card in now available from Canberra Airport! Canberra is the capital city of Australia, founded after the Federation of Australia where the six separate colonies voted to join together and form a single federal government. With both Sydney and Melbourne competing to become the new national capital, Canberra was basically chosen as the compromise – the midpoint between the two cities. The city was barely a collection of villages at the time however, so work started fast to turn Canberra into the metropolis it is today, becoming one of the only fully planned cities in Australia.
Being the national capital, Canberra has all kinds of institutions, museums and monuments to see. A great day out would be to visit the capital area surrounding Lake Burley Griffin, the man made lake that serves as the centrepiece. On the north side you have the ANZAC Parade, leading up to the famous WWII memorial, and then on the south side you can visit the Parliament House (and the old Parliament House) to learn about Australia’s political history – all within walking distance. There’s also the Royal Mint, the National Gallery of Australia, the Museum of Australian Democracy – there’s really no end of things to do. For those wanting something a bit more outdoors too the hiking trails of Namadgi National Park is just a stone’s throw away.
Canberra Airport is based just 5 miles from the city centre, and sees a whopping 3 million passengers each year. We have car hire desks both in terminal and in the city, so we can help wherever’s most convenient!
