This was my first ever time hiring a car, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Simba Car Hire!
I’d just finished months of training for a bodybuilding competition and when I picked up the car I was running on about 4 hours of sleep, barely any food and some serious brain fog 😂 The gentleman who served me was incredibly patient, kind and helpful. I felt terrible having to ask him to explain a few things to me in simpler terms, but he never made me feel silly or rushed. He took the time to make sure I understood everything and completely put my mind at ease.
Once I was on my way, I had SO much fun with the car! It was in great condition, super comfortable and made getting around Brisbane so easy.
What stood out most was how genuine the customer service felt. A little patience and kindness can make such a difference, especially when someone is tired and overwhelmed, and I really appreciated it.
I would 100% recommend Simba Car Hire and will definitely be using them again next time I need a hire car. Thank you for making my first car hire experience such a positive one!

Very seamless, and professional. As simple as it seems.
Easy
Relatively easy to hire and return. Value was good. Car standard could have been better when handed over ie poorly washed and interior wasn’t as clean as I expected.

Easy shuttle service. Easy check in and drop off. Not much wait time so long as you fill in pre check in documents

I have hired a car from 16/6-4/9/26 from SIMBA cairns depot and returned the vehicle without damage and accepted by their staff . I have then received a photo alleging a minor scratch to a door handle for which without my permission they have debited my credit card $5,480 pending damage assessment resulting from an alleged incident I am said to have reported on 3/9 which is false . They also have $5oo security deposit taken originally .
I believe this should be a warning to anyone considering dealing with SIMBA
Fantastic company
They were so friendly and easy to deal with! Cheapest out there and get customer service. I will be booking with them again!
Would definitely use again
Super easy to book online. Pick up from Brisbane airport to the rental place was simple enough. Staff were friendly and the car was really good.
Very fast and easy to deal with
Very fast and easy to deal with. We picked up our car with a full tank and were out the gate in 15 minutes. Returning the car was even easier and they were all super friendly and helpful with the airport shuttle.
