Private car charter

Private Car Charter Australia — Fixed Routes & Custom Day Tours

Hire a car and driver for a fixed route, a full-day standard tour, or a custom itinerary you build yourself. The same trusted driver stays with you from pickup to drop-off.

How it works

1

Pick a standard route or build your own stops with the custom tour builder.

2

We map the route, quote it, and you pay a deposit to confirm.

3

Your private driver collects you on time and follows your plan, stop by stop.

Why charter with us

  • One driver, one vehicle, the whole trip — no ride-sharing, no waiting.
  • Flexible hours: pause for lunch, add a stop, take the scenic road home.
  • Transparent quoting up front, so you know the price before you commit.

Luggage & capacity

The more passengers you bring, the less room there is for bags. If your group is near a vehicle’s seat or luggage limit, our team will confirm the right vehicle with you before your trip. If the vehicle booked can’t fit all your luggage on the day, an extra charge may apply on site.

Book a private charter

What's included with a private charter

Everything below is covered in your quoted price — no extras charged during the trip.

One driver for the whole day

The same vetted local driver stays with you from pickup to drop-off — no handoffs, no strangers.

Hotel pickup and drop-off

Your driver collects you from the lobby and returns you at the end — door to door.

Flexible stops

Pause for longer at a stop you love, add a detour, or reorder the route on the day — your driver adapts.

Bottled water

Chilled water is in the vehicle for your group, standard for every charter.

Fixed quote before you commit

Review the full quoted price — route, vehicle, hours — then pay a deposit to confirm. No meter running.

Vehicle sized for your group

Sedan for couples, SUV for families, people-mover or minibus for larger groups — we match the right vehicle.

Three ways to charter

Pick the format that suits your trip — a pre-built favourite, your own stops, or a full custom day.

Standard fixed routes

Pre-built full-day tours — Gold Coast highlights, Brisbane city, Sunshine Coast or Byron Bay. Curated stops, verified timing, easy to book.

Custom itinerary

Choose your own stops and order. We map the route, estimate the drive time, and quote it for you — then you pay a deposit to confirm.

Point-to-point day transfer

Travelling between cities without a fixed tour? Book an intercity transfer — Gold Coast to Brisbane, Brisbane to Sunshine Coast, and more — for one fixed price.

Areas we cover

Our charter routes focus on South-East Queensland and Northern New South Wales — the region our local drivers know best.

Gold Coast — beaches, hinterland, theme parks
Brisbane — city, South Bank, Lone Pine, Mt Coot-tha
Sunshine Coast — Noosa, Glass House Mountains, Eumundi
Byron Bay & hinterland — Cape Byron, Bangalow, Crystal Castle
Cairns — city, Northern Beaches, Palm Cove, Port Douglas

Frequently asked questions

How does the deposit work for a charter?

Once you approve your quote, a 20% deposit locks in your booking. The balance is due before your travel date. If we cannot provide your charter for any reason, your deposit is fully refunded.

Can I change the stops or route on the day?

Yes — your driver is flexible. You can add stops, skip stops, or adjust the order on the day. Significant route extensions may affect the quoted price, which your driver will confirm with you before proceeding.

How many passengers can a charter accommodate?

Up to 11 passengers in a minibus, 6 in an SUV or people-mover, and 3 in a sedan. Tell us your group size at booking and we match the right vehicle.

What's the difference between a standard tour and a custom charter?

Standard tours are pre-built full-day routes with curated stops and verified timing — easy to book and great value. A custom charter lets you pick your own stops, sequence and hours. Both use the same private-driver model with a fixed quoted price.

Do I need to tip the driver?

Tips are not expected or required — your driver's service is included in the quoted price. If you had a great experience and want to tip, it is always appreciated.

Can we request a specific vehicle type?

Yes — choose your preferred vehicle class at booking. Availability depends on your date and region, and we'll confirm the match when we send your firm quote.
