KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Perth
- Whether you want to explore the greenery of the many surrounding national parks in Perth, visit the beach, or discover the many hidden gems of the city, with a hire car you can conveniently get to all your dream destinations. While public transport works fine inside the city, any areas outside the center like the Perth Hills or Margaret River, which is 167 miles south of Perth, need to be reached by car.
- Start your time in Perth by renting a car directly at Perth Airport. Regardless of which terminal travelers arrive in, car hire service desks can be found in all of them. The companies found here include Avis, Budget, and Hertz, and are located past the Baggage Claim area and arrivals hall.
- The most notable difference when driving in Australia compared to most other countries in the world, is that here you drive on the left side of the road. Simply follow cars when you are new to this; getting the hang of it will only be a matter of a short time. Also note that speeding cameras are very common all around Australia, so adhering to the given speed limits is important.
- Road conditions can vary from region to region and, even though Perth generally has well-maintained roads, conditions outside the city in particular can worsen, so make sure insurance is taken care of and get informed on whether car underside coverage is included. Also, when driving outside of the city, check whether there is enough petrol in the tank, as petrol stations can get scarce when leaving any urban setting.

FAQs about hiring a car in Perth
What type of car is recommended for driving in Perth?
As parking can difficult in Perth, opting for a compact car is advisable. Choosing a 4-wheel-drive car can also bear advantages when planning trips out of the city. As drivers sit on the right-hand side, the gear shift has to be used with the left hand, so drivers who are not used to that should go for an automatic car.
What’s the speed limit in Perth?
Speed limits in Australia are given in kilometers per hour. Unless posted otherwise, regulations are 40 km/h (24 mph) in school zones, 50 km/h (31 mph) in residential areas, 70-80 km/h (43-49 mph) in two-lane country roads, and 100-110 km/h (62-68 mph) on freeways and bush roads. Note that posted signs are on the left side of the road rather than the right.
Where are the best places to park in Perth?
Street parking in Perth can be tricky and on the expensive side, so, if possible, opt for accommodation with a parking space included.

Pros:
Staff were excellent. The staff at the drop-off point were helpful and efficient.Cons:
Queuing to get in to the hut/portable office then a further wait at the pick-up was an irritation. If you have periods of high demand perhaps your facilities or staff, or both should be increased.10.0 Wonderful

May 2019
Pros:
Staff were friendly but had a wait at collection. excellent drop off but a bit challenging to locate the rental car rental entrance. Fantastic car Hyundai i30 navigation included. Guaranteed model selection is a good idea.Cons:
I liked the onsite Hertz collection as the other off site car rental depots close after business hours and you need to get a cab to take you to and from the airport to their off site depot10.0 Wonderful

Mar 2017
Pros:
I love to the car I got. It was perfect for my needs and served me well during a 3 Week Rd. trip in Western Australia. Hertz did right by me.Cons:
there was some small damage to the car, and because my insurance is through a third-party, now I have a hassle on my hands. I think it's worth it to book directly considering how much the coverage costs and is at this point totally wasted money. If the third-party insurance actually comes through and pays for what they should pay for, I will feel differently. But for now I wish that I just booked directly through Hertz.2.0 Poor

Everythings good but our car backside window(real window) already broken by someone(thief) at the first day night and our two luggage already gone. And when we tell company staff about this issues they still need us to paid by ourselves? We already bought our insurance but we still need to paid about this issues? This really made us feel upset.8.4 Very Good
