Prices and availability for Perth come through our partner networks, EconomyBookings and Discover Cars. Your booking completes on the partner's secure checkout.
Perth is one of the most isolated big cities in the world, and everything worth seeing outside it is a proper drive: the Swan Valley wineries, the Pinnacles up the coast, Margaret River and the forests down south. Inside the city a car is useful but not essential, with wide roads, easy parking in the suburbs and good freeways north and south. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices, so you can pick up at the airport or in the city.

Renting a car in Perth: common questions
Do I need a car in Perth itself?
Not for the centre. The CBD, Fremantle and the beaches are covered by trains, buses and a free city bus loop. A car earns its keep the moment you leave town: Rottnest is a ferry, but the Swan Valley, Yanchep, the Pinnacles and the south-west are all car trips. Many visitors pick up a car only for the days they head out.
What sort of car suits a Western Australia road trip?
Sealed highways to Margaret River, Albany and Geraldton are fine in any small or mid-size car. A 4x4 only matters if you plan on unsealed tracks or remote northern routes, and rental conditions often restrict where you can take a standard car, so check the conditions shown per car before planning gravel.
What licence do I need?
A full driving licence held for at least a year is the usual requirement, and each company sets its own minimum age and young-driver conditions. If your licence is not in the Latin alphabet, bring an International Driving Permit alongside it. The exact conditions for every car are shown before you book.
Is there a deposit, and what about insurance?
Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Perth, so they are shown per car before you book. You will see what is included, what the excess is, and whether a deposit is held on your card at the desk.
Where does the booking actually happen?
You search from this page and see live cars and prices on our partner’s site. When you choose one, the booking completes on their secure checkout, where you confirm the details and receive your voucher. Show the voucher at the desk on pick-up.
