Check your booking for the specifics or click through to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Chinatown?
Affordable, a breeze to handle and good on mileage, it’s no surprise that compact vehicles are the most booked home type in Chinatown. Explore this city in one of these and you’ll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily navigate busy streets. A compact is ideal for city escapes or quick road trips. But they’re not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

  • You’ll feel the vibrant spirit of bustling city life the minute you pull into Ballarat. Some 105 kilometres from Chinatown, it’s home to loads of excellent places to explore, such as Sovereign Hill.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Chinatown?
Drivers 21 and above can hit the highway in Chinatown in a home vehicle. If you’re a young renter, a daily surcharge will apply. You’ll generally have fewer car categories to choose from, such as economy and compact, and may also have to take out comprehensive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Chinatown?
Generally, you’ll need a driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up your car. You may also need proof of coverage if you’d like to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between home companies, so remember to check in advance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Chinatown?
In Chinatown, you’ll need to drive on the left side of the road. This can be daunting enough, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to what you’re used to. For a safe journey, take things slow at first and leave yourself some extra time to get to your next stop.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Chinatown?
You can. Expedia partners with trusted providers that offer weekly and monthly holiday homes for many categories of cars. Head to our long-term car rental deals and discover every turn of Chinatown — or way beyond!
Where can I find a Chinatown car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you are under 25 years old in Chinatown often depends on the holiday home company you select. Some businesses have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, however others may not have any additional costs for this age range. Ensure you read the terms and conditions of your chosen holiday home company to escape any nasty surprises on pickup.
