Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in The Gap?
You’ll get bang for your buck in The Gap, with car rental prices within the past seven days starting from as low as AU$128 a day.
What happens if I need to cancel my The Gap car reservation?
There are always times when plans change. That’s why we give your money back on the majority of homes if cancelled six hours ahead of the pickup time. Don’t forget to double-check your cancellation policy — in some cases it’s not offered. Can’t find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal has more information.
What types of cars can I rent in The Gap?
Premium, full-size, intermediate … The choice is all yours! However, compact models are the most popular in The Gap. If you want something small and cost-effective, but not too small, this category of rental car is a smart choice. Driving around traffic-filled streets will be a cinch in one of these. Compact cars offer a little more room than economy rides and are suited to solo travellers, couples and families on a budget.
Where can I go on a road trip from The Gap?
Book some wheels, collect the keys and discover all the sights and sounds of The Gap. But with loads more to see in the surrounding areas, that shouldn’t be the end of the road! Set your sat-nav to some of the other intriguing places in the region:

  • You’ll feel the energy of a city bustling with life the moment you pull into Mount Zeil. Some 121 kilometres from The Gap, it’s home to a ton of awesome places to discover, like Glen Helen Gorge.
  • Hugh, around 72 kilometres away, also promises a memorable time. Chasing some sightseeing inspiration? Standley Chasm won’t disappoint.
  • No road trip is complete without spending time at Uluru. This much-loved nature spot is roughly 338 kilometres from The Gap. Breathe in the fresh air and relax!

How do I find the best car rental deals in The Gap with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in The Gap?
Generally, the rules are 21 years and over in The Gap. It should be pointed out that most outlets have a young driver surcharge. Do your research before you book, as rules may differ between rental car suppliers. Keep in mind that if you want to rent a specialty vehicle or a large car like an SUV, drivers may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in The Gap?
Renting a car in The Gap is easy as pie. Normally, all that’s required is your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Once you’ve settled on your ride, check your policy to make sure there are no additional requirements prior to your scheduled pickup.
What side of the road do you drive on in The Gap?
Unlike the U.S, people in The Gap drive on the left-hand side. Having the driver’s seat and some other controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the car before driving off.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in The Gap?
Whether you plan to stick around The Gap or discover what’s beyond, it’s easy to book a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll find you fantastic long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a The Gap car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Gap holiday home providers you’re interested in. If you’re under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge additional costs. It’s ideal to know this before collecting the vehicle so you can have the funds ready. Each holiday home car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
