Cairns is not only known for its access to the Great Barrier Reef, but it also offers a plethora of attractions within the city itself. Even if you're using Cairns as a basecamp for exploring the Daintree Rainforest or snorkeling in coral gardens, we highly recommend spending some quality time in the CBD. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
One of the main attractions in Cairns is the Cairns Esplanade, located at the foreshore in the heart of the city. It has become a popular destination for both locals and tourists alike. The highlight of the Esplanade is the 4,800 square meter saltwater lagoon, where you can enjoy safe swimming all year round. This is particularly important as Cairns doesn't have its own beach, but rather a muddy tidal swamp inhabited by saltwater crocodiles. So, you can swim worry-free in the Esplanade lagoon, complete with man-made sandy beaches, shady palms, and lush grass. It's also a great spot for parents to relax while keeping an eye on their little ones.
Cairns is strategically positioned between two regions renowned for their local produce. The Atherton Tablelands is famous for its tropical fruit orchards and cattle grazing farms, while the Coral Sea offers fresh seafood straight from the ocean to your plate. Additionally, the area is home to several freshwater rivers, where you can try your luck at catching barramundi, a popular fish among locals.
If you're up for exploring the surrounding area, we recommend taking a trip to the mountain village of Kuranda. Nestled in the rainforest, this village is known for its local markets and vibrant art community. You can reach Kuranda via the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway, which provides a breathtaking view of the rainforest. On your way back to Cairns, don't miss the historic Kuranda Scenic Railway, offering a two-hour journey through rugged mountains, vibrant rainforest, and alongside roaring waterfalls.
For a more guided experience, consider joining Cairns Discovery Tours. Their knowledgeable tour guides will take you on a journey through the CBD and its surrounding areas, including historical and cultural landmarks such as the Cairns Museum. The tour concludes with a visit to the picturesque northern beaches, including the popular Palm Cove.
At Ace Rental Cars, we also offer great deals for Uber driver-partners. If you're interested in becoming an Uber driver and renting a vehicle with us, we'd love to be part of your journey. Once you're accepted as a validated Uber driver-partner, you can book an Uber rental vehicle with Ace and enjoy fantastic savings.
With rental car locations all over Australia and New Zealand, we can accommodate your needs no matter where you plan to pick up or drop off your rental car. Our locations are open seven days a week, and we can even arrange after-hours pickups and drop-offs.
Driving in Australia is a fantastic way to explore the country at your own pace. However, it's important to familiarize yourself with the rules and regulations of the roads, as well as the distances between top tourist locations. Our driving distance calculator table can assist you in planning your itinerary and estimating travel times.
Before embarking on your driving holiday, make sure you're fully prepared by following our tips and guidelines. We want to ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable journey.

"Absolutely terrible, prepaid direct through website to pickup car at 10am. only to be told at desk it wasn't prepaid even though could see it came out of account, waited 2 and 1/2 hours and missed our non refundable barrier reef tour that cost $700!! .Ace didn't offer us anything for the stuff up, no upgrade or discount for the massive stuff around. thankfully the staff at the office were amazing in the end and fixed it so we were able to eventually get a car.. will never hire through Ace again..would give 0 stars if I could!"
"We had the same problem another costumer wrote here. We have a lot of problems since we booked a car with a third partie online. Unfortunately no one is willing to help us and since february we are trying to get our money back. We booked a seven seater online and when we came to the office we got a mini car (like a polo). We asked what happened and they told us in the office that the third partie booked this car. We tried to handle it with different calls, finally we had to pay more to get the car we needed. We are trying now with lots of mails to get the money back. The weird and sad thing about is that the office told us that they often have problems with this third online company. So why do they still work with them? Their internet offers dont exist and customers lose money. Really bad. And like I read now it happened again after us. Shame on you! I think there is a system behind…"
"Booked through a 3rd party for car hire, international terminal pick up for which we ubered from across town through the city. Only to get to counter and a sign directing to domestic (which was fine, a short walk). No further signage at domestic, and told to go via a different company who directed us to a 3rd airport location, where we were told to wait 20 mins for a shuttle. Shuttle then drives us back into the city to pick up car ( through another 3rd party) only to be told car will be 30 minutes as it was coming from the airport from which we had just come from. At this point it was 2 hours of waiting with no one taking responsibility as it was booked through another party and when we finally got on the phone to cancel was told we didn’t qualify and we need to lodge a claim to get our money back. Absolute debacle. If companies allow third party bookings for their products they need to also take ownership when things go wrong. Not even the 3rd party could get hold of them when ring to enquire on our booking. We’re not the only unhappy clients on the shuttle to town either. Not HAPPY Jan!"
"No hassle and easy to deal with, they gave us a free upgrade of vehicle as the type we asked for wasn't available."
"We called before our departure and staff just indicated us to call in after we collected luggages for shuttle bus pick up. No map no further indication. Ended up nobody picked up the phone at all and the line is not working. Tried the online booking form and said no bus available at your location. So we paid $6x for Uber to the location. When we arrived staff said we missed the shuttle bus at the pick up point hence no reimbursement for the uber. So ridiculous he made us sounds like we should have known that. The pick up point is at the domestic terminal whereas we landed in International."
