Merve organised my barge ticket and Fraser pass. His advice for a first time beach driver was valuable. The car was reliable. Would use them again for the next Fraser trip.

Before i decided to visit Fraser Island I have checked many 4x4 Hires and decided on Rainbow Beach 4x4 Hire. What I have experienced it was what I would expected if not above my expectation. Merv's service was great.

Service from Merv was fantastic. Prompt, efficient, great 4WD driving tips and great sense of humour. The car was in very good condition, carefully detailed inside and mechanically well maintained. The car was built for the 4WD conditions on Fraser and despite some concern we quickly learnt to trust the car and let it do its thing. Highly recommend and will use Rainbow Beach 4x4 again.

Had a great time on Fraser made all the better with the help of Merve and Rainbow Beach 4x4 Hire. The 4x4 did the job travelling the beach and inland tracks. Good rates, highly recommend. Cheers, Crackers.

Merve was fantastic to deal with from the first email enquiry I made right through to picking up the vehicle and returning it. We had never driven on sand before so were somewhat nervous about being the newbies getting bogged! Merve assured us we would be ok and was true to his word. Gave us great tips on places to go and bolstered our confidence. And with his advice, it turned out to be much easier than we had imagined and lots of fun. K’gari is a wonderful place to visit and we explored it in full. Thanks Merve for your great support.

Merve and the team provided all of the information and gear we needed to enjoy exploring the island for 4 days. The 4WD never missed a beat and I highly recommend this company and place ❤️

A great experience all-round with Rainbow beach 4x4 Hire. Merv was super helpful, very knowledgeable, and accommodating. Great advice on where to go and what to do with the time we had available. Prices were reasonable and the vehicles are solid and well adapted to driving on K'gari. I always felt confident driving on the sand and bush tracks with the vehicle. Nice to know they have your back with towing and a spare vehicle on the island should you ever need it. If you are thinking should I go? - yes!

My wife and I just hired a 4wd land cruiser lc100. The vehicle was in tip top condition, everything worked and advice and videos were excellent. The beach was fairly well scalloped from the tides so we travelled much more slowly than others and I was surprised at the good fuel economy we experienced. Should we plan another trip to Frase we will again hire from this company Merve is a very genuine and knowledge person
