Best 4x4 Hire for Those travelling to Fraser Island
Jun. 2021 • Friends
I hired a 4x4 from Merv at Rainbow 4x4 and he could not have been more helpful. Merv suggested an itinerary for Fraser Island and camping spots to make the most of our 4days on Fraser. The car was in great condition and took us everywhere we wanted to go. Highly recommend this company to all travellers +++++

Great vehicles and professional service
Jun. 2021 • Family
Vehicles well maintained and very comfortable to drive. Went with a family group and we hired 3 vehicles for a week. The ability to make our own itinerary dependent on weather and tide conditions is great. Thanks to Merve for the professional advice, guidance and instruction provided from the outset - we will be returning customers. We purchased our own walkie talkies for the trip which was useful when travelling in convoy. Thanks again Merve and team!.

A week in paradise.
Jun. 2021 • Friends
There's nothing better than having the independence to do your own thing on Fraser Island. Rainbow Beach 4x4 provided me with the vehicle to make it happen. Merve goes above and beyond to make sure you're prepared for the trip, plus the vehicle was robust and reliable. The driving tutorial on video was a great touch.
Thank you Merve and everyone at RB4x4.
I'll be back!

Fantastic holiday experience
Apr. 2021 • Family
We had a fabulous 4 nights on Fraser Is thanks to a great 4WD Toyota with all the necessary camping equipment on board. Merv was so lovely to deal with and full of great helpful advice about beach driving, tides and best place to get supplies. Recommend Rainbow beach 4x4 hire very highly.

Great 4WD experience
Mar. 2021
Fantastic Trip to Fraser, great 4wd tracks, beautiful rainforest and bush and Lake Mckenzie is a must see.
Thanks to Merve at Rainbow Beach Hire who kept in touch pre trip and made sure we had everything we needed including park permit and barge tickets. He also made the handover process easy and light with a great sense of humour. The Landcruiser was clean and great to drive and although they we had a steering lock issue on Day 3 the mechanic came quickly and a replacement vehicle was also with us quickly. Nice to know you have that back up and if things do go wrong there is some one close by on the island to solve it for you. Merve again called us after the trip just to check everything was good and the return of the bond...great service.

Fraser Island beach trip - use Rainbow Beach 4 x 4 vehicle hire - Great value
Feb. 2021
As a first time Fraser Island visitor wanting to drive on the beach & explore the island, Merve at Rainbow Beach 4 x 4 hire made it all very easy. He was very easy to work with, went out of his way to get us trained up and on the early barge. Land cruiser vehicle was very well maintained, drove well and made easy work of the soft sand and bush tracks. The hire office was within walking distance to the Rainbow Beach center, secure parking nearby. Made the whole experience very easy & very comparable rates. Strongly recommend this hire service.

Rainbow 4x4 hire
Jan. 2021
Excellent. Great communication from Merv and vehicle did everything it was supposed to with no problems. We spent a week on K'gari (Fraser Island). It's a fun adventure and worth doing without having to buy a 4x4. I'd definitely use Rainbow Beach 4x4 Hire again. Willy
