Why You Need a Car on Norfolk Island
- Norfolk Island offers a world of natural beauty, history, and unique experiences, but without your own transport, exploring its wonders can be challenging.
- Public transport doesn’t exist here, and with only one taxi service, availability is limited. Add the island’s steep hills and winding roads, and getting around on foot or bike quickly becomes impractical.

Hiring a car is not just a convenience—it’s the best way to enjoy everything the island has to offer at your own pace!
