Budget Rent-a-Car

A great way to see Kangaroo Island in all its glory, is to hire a car and have the freedom to explore all the well known tourist spots at your own leisure.

The Island deserves more than a one day visit, as it is much bigger than you first imagine. Budget Rent-a-Car has been servicing visitors to Kangaroo Island for more than 25 years and with care, our vehicles can be driven on sealed and unsealed (paved/ unpaved) roads on the Island.

We service three main outlets across the Island, these include:

  • Penneshaw Wharf, where the Kangaroo Island SeaLink ferry arrives
  • Kingscote Airport, which is serviced by Air South and Regional Express
  • The townships of both Kingscote and Penneshaw

Tour & Package Notes

KI is accessible by a standard motor vehicle and is well serviced with an extensive bitumised road network. Some roads are constructed of ironstone gravel and high speed driving on these roads can be hazardous. We suggest a minimum of three days and travelling up to 60 kilometres per hour on dirt roads. There are wild animals out in the late afternoon and night, so please be particularly careful at these times.
