What about insurance/excess reduction?: There are three options: (1) We offer Comprehensive Travel Insurance with Excess Reduction from QBE. This is $10-$22 cheaper per day than the suppliers cover. The cost saving and the price is shown after you choose a vehicle. The cover amount is up to $3000 (beyond that you don't pay anything if the standard liability per (1) above is $3000. If it is more than $3000 you can top up your cover). Excess payable to QBE if there is damage is only $50, they will pay all other costs. If you take this option you do not need the excess reduction offered by the suppliers at the depot.(2) Take the rental company's excess reduction which costs approx. $27-$35 per day (plus airport pickup fees of 10%-25%, depending on the airport surcharge). Excess payable in the event of damage will be $0 to $330 depending on the supplier.(3) Do nothing and for any damage you will be liable for up to $3000 or so, depending on what the "standard" liability/insurance is from the rental company.

Brisbane is also home to an extremely active live music scene that is featured weekly in bars and pubs across the city, the perfect venue for you to kick back and relax while you listen to some of the area's most popular bands.

Brisbane is in close proximity to the Gold Coast, where you can shop till your heart is content or tackle the waves at Surfer's Paradise. For that matter, you never need leave Brisbane, with attractive store fronts, shops, and pristine beaches of its own.

If you are the kind that prefers to see nature at its finest, why not visit the Great Diving Range and take the family for a hike to Brisbane's famous Scenic Rim? The Outback is yours to explore by driving north-westward, or you can drive west into the Western Downs to experience a more relaxed country vibe.
