Simba Car Hire at Cairns Airport

Pros: Does what it says

Cons: Annoying having to outside of airport via bus to pick up car

Pros: clean car

Cons: very slow service, long wait at the pickup, we waited for the agent 30+ min at the drop off. We had to request for documents to be sent, even though Simba agent promised to send them as soon as possible. Definitely we will avoid Simba Car Hire in the future.

Pros: Great friendly service, good almost brand new van to hire. No issues at all.

Cons: A little long in dropping off and getting shuttle back to Airport.

Pros: Very efficient and no delays

Pros: Very friendly and helpful

Cons: Nothing really, I guess the location in Cairns is slightly tricky to get to if you coming from the south because the main road.

Pros: Such a quick service both pick-up and drop-off

Cons: Nil

Pros: Good service

Cons: Hard to make phone contact Not available etc

Pros: The transfer to the Simba car hire location is easy and quick. The pick up and drop off was a breeze and a very good experience.

Pros: Easy service First car had a problem but was replaced with a new with no fuss

Pros: the quality of the service. Very clear details in oral form and explanations about the function of the car. Speed pick up. everything perfect

Pros: Friendly drivers of the pick up mini bus.

Cons: Nobody available to check vehicle on return, we had to wait until the 2 agents had finished serving customers who were collecting vehicles before they could deal with us. Then the van to take us to the airport wasn't there. The whole process took 30 minutes and when you have a flight to catch this is stress that you don't want. On future visits to Cairns, I'd only use an on airport provider.

Pros: nice and easy！

Cons: friendly staff！ i will come back to you again！

Pros: Was pleasantly surprised and the car was amazing

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Everything, would definitely use Simba again!

Cons: Nothing, well priced, great service, wouldn’t expect any more!

Pros: Staff were friendly and helpful. Pick up and drop off were easy

Cons: The first car we were offered needed an oil change we had it for 9 weeks so felt this was unacceptable. The second car was a good car very efficient and comfortable however in week 8 I had a puncture and when I took the car to have a new tyre installed I was told the tyres were bald and illegal. The next car I was offered needed a service.

Pros: Simba was an excellent car provider, the staff were excellent, and the car was pristine. No issues whatsoever, and would most certainly use them again

Pros: Everything went smooth. From pick up to drop off. Unfortunately the first car they gave us, the Air Conditioner was not working. The next day we back to get another vehicle, they were great. They didn’t have a car that was equal to what we rented so the manager put us in an SUB which was fabulous.

Cons: All was good with the exception of the telephone number they provide us to call when we arrive at the airport doesn’t work. They did not have a toll free number or a number that would work for us Canadians. Thankfully my son lives in AU so he had to call for us for us to get picked up. He

Pros: Prompt collection and return to airport. Friendly staff with a personal touch.

Cons: Nothing

Cons: When you arrive at the airport and phone for the courtesy car it never arrived, and after 40 min I phoned Simba and used option 4 and spoke to the office staff who told me they never got my original message, even though I had message confirmation that the driver was leaving to pick us up.

Pros: Fantastic

Cons: Extremely easy

Pros: Simple and easy to deal with.

Pros: Easy to collect the car, and car was clean. Good location.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The pick up was slow, the operator was by himself and had 4 customers waiting. It took about an hour to collect a vehicle that we had already done a fast check-in for.

Cons: Slow pick up

Pros: Quick, easy, friendly, good car.

Pros: Speeding service

Cons: Can’t get a shuttle bus early in the morning

Cons: Cost could have been cheaper. 3rd party insurance needs to be integrated with the leasing company to avoid having to manually pay in tye event of a damage and then claim back.

Pros: The availability of toilets and the wait area outside

Cons: As detailed above - feel we were misrepresented and will be taking the matter further in our return to Perth.

Pros: Friendly people, prompt and helpful service, particularly with shuttle service to and from the airport.

Pros: See above

Cons: The vehicle, a Haval Jolion, considered 'similar' to the advertised Mitsubishi ASX, except the latter would have been better The most annoying car to drive I (& passengers) can recall, with its constant 'beeping' & warnings, for no good reason. Suggest Simba examine the car's electronics & disable those silly, annoying features that can so distract a driver

Cons: Nothing - service was excellent.

Pros: Quick and easy rental Car in good condition Close to the airport

Pros: Very quick and thorough

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Nothing

Cons: I was told that Discover would charge deductible on the car insurance claims so I was forced to buy coverage from Simba in addition to Discover. It resulted in a loss of $200. I would not recommend Discover or Simba to anyone.

Cons: They push very hard for extra insurance - even though I told them I had full excess cover and brought the documentation with me-they clearly want to make money on this which I understand but the alarmist approach is excessive and inappropriate. That needs to stop. I wouldn’t hire from them again for that reason. Not acceptable-scares you before you even get into a car -and I’m driving 30 years and never had an accident-felt like telling them to stuff their car..

Pros: Quick and easy pick up and drop off. Polite staff and car was clean and great to drive

Cons: We were told that our full insurance wasn't full cover, even though we had purchased this from discovery cars. This was frustrating and left us worried that we didn't have adequate cover for our holiday

Pros: Very polite and well presented

Cons: Not taking my concerns about the malfunctioning light seriously

Pros: Lovely friendly staff. Very efficient collection and drop off. Car was spotless.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Nothing

Cons: No email confirmation email to say which car rental company the car was from, resulting in me loosing my deposit.

Pros: They were very friendly and the car was clean and ready to go when we got there.

Cons: The rental place is not attached to the airport and was closed when we went to return the car even though I had stated we would be returning it at 7am. We had to drive to the airport, drop the passengers and luggage off then return to the depot, leave the car and get a taxi back to the airport. We were not anticipating this and it would been good if we were made aware that this would be the case.
