Simba Car Hire Reviews 

Very friendly and efficient staff at office in Cairns. The car was very clean and comfortable. Overall a great experience. Price was good for our 6 day hire.

Been renting cars over 40 years . Used just about all of them . I found Simba their pricing was better good selection of cars , paper work , photos of car condition. Excellent . Courtesy bus on time clean and effective. Well done

Toyota Corolla was a beautiful little car to drive. The staff at Cairns Simba were friendly and competent with their service. Deposit was returned promptly. Thank you. Will highly recommend. 😀

Things didn’t start well when in their instructions on arrival at the airport they ask you to hit a link to tell them you are there to be picked up. They also have a feature to track the pick up van. We watched a van arrive at the airport to drop off customers only to leave without picking us up. After waiting some time another couple eventually rang them and told them we were all waiting to be picked up.

Check in was great, friendly staff and very informative. We also got the car for a great price booking and paying in advance.

When dropping the vehicle off, the shuttle driver said he would fix the car up so we didn’t have to go into the office, he told us to put our suitcases in the back of the van. When at the airport he told us we had arrived, got out, opened the back of the van up and made us get our own suitcases out. We entered the terminal to discover it was the domestic terminal so we had to walk a good 10 mins outside in the heat to the international terminal. It would have been nice to be asked which terminal we were using.

Perth Office and airport shuttle service support is non existent needing to rely on the online platform doesn't improve the experience. Was informed this as a common problem affecting it's Customers.

Used Simba in other States without this problem.

Relatively quick transfer and good service at car pickup had us on our way about 1 hour after exiting the plane.
Drop off was seamless and transfer was quick.
Returned the car before the time specified so could save one day charge. However the low daily price made this unimportant. No problems with the car as it had < 12000km on odometer.

Pick up phone prompts would not work from cairns airport, finally saw van arrive for another pax and made a run for it as stopped at another location. Pick up driver was watching soccer on his split screen phone and sending long text messages at the same time all whilst mobile and driving.(Driver was indian/SriLankan type origin 30s)

Drop off experience was much better with polite and efficient staff. (Young lady and a young french guy)

The team were great to work with. Great price for quality cars. Will use next year when we are back up here.

Great rates and fantastic service from pickup to drop off-could not get any easier!

Amazing team, all friendly staff. Car was top notch. Easy process no fluffing around :)

No problem with the car or transparency of what was provided, only thing I would recommend is there was no clear indication of when pickup had left or where they were

Great experience, excellent service, no bureaucracy.

Highly recommended

Car was great. Wish could pick up or drop off out of hours.

Friendly staff, great explanations of insurance. Friendly shuttle staff. Cost effective

The hire car we chose (Mitsubishi Outlander) was perfect for our travel around Cairns with five people. The staff were professional and quick to respond. The shuttle bus to the airport worked well for us.

Booking online easy
Completely upfront on insurances
Shuttle service excellent
Return of car smoothly
Would use Simba again .

Their hire car prices are extremely competitive. They were clean and modern cars that run well and answer the phone if you have questions. Some odd stuff as all hire car places have, like a late return fee which often outweighs the daily cost of the car, so take it another day 😂
The free shuttle is a great addition

Mostly Very happy with the experience. Pick up was a bit slow as not many staff on duty.
Very happy with the car allocated and drop off process was quick and simple.
Suggest maybe need for staff on Sundays. Staff were friendly. Overall a good experience.

Such great value car hire in Cairns. Car was great and staff were friendly. Only four stars because getting a hold of someone to speak to on the phone at 8am on Sunday morning took 20 minutes.

Friendly staff and easy and pleasnant to deal with , highly recommend
