“Great service – Brilliant service easy to navigate, so much better than renting a car as we did not have to pay for parking etc whilst in Sydney and hired a car when needed. Worked out so much cheaper than car rental.”

Final word?
If you’re still Googling “best car rental Sydney”, maybe it’s time to stop looking for rental… and start GoGetting.

“Great option for overseas visitors who need a car occasionally – I am on 6 week holiday from overseas. I researched car options before I arrived because I didn't need a car every day, but when I needed it, one had to be readily available. GoGet popped up in my search and had very good ratings. Booking my trip was easy, the car I booked was waiting for me at the exact location they said it would be, using the SmartCard was simple and I was driving away in seconds (after I'd checked the mirrors and put on my seat belt!) This is a great service that works extremely well. I'm glad I found out about it. It is far better for my needs than renting a car and leaving it sitting in a drive way for most of the rental period.”
