Rented the smallest car for two of us and two small suitcases. Perfect for us and easy to drive. Drove from Launceston to Cradle mountain, Strahan and finished in Hobart, where we returned the car when flying out. Lots of very steep hills and although sometimes I wondered if my little car would make it, it did and I can’t praise the service enough.
