About us
Welcome to Tropical North Car Rentals, your gateway to exploring the unparalleled beauty of Tropical North Queensland with ease and comfort.
Established in 1995 and rooted in the community, our journey began in Palm Cove, earning a reputation for reliability and excellence with a modest fleet of nine red cars.
Under the stewardship of Richard since 2016, we’ve dedicated ourselves to simplifying the car rental process, focusing on transparency and customer satisfaction.
This commitment led to our growth, expanding our fleet to 35 cars by 2022, and paving the way for the launch of our new locations in Cairns and Port Douglas in late 2022.
Today, our service proudly spans from Palm Cove to Port Douglas, offering a seamless pick-up and drop-off experience that caters to your travel needs. With a fleet of over 60 modern vehicles, we’re here to ensure that your journey through the scenic wonders of FNQ is nothing short of spectacular.
We’re not just about cars, we’re about creating unforgettable travel experiences.
