      overall a good experience - found it difficult to modify the booking and change dates by one day. Had to rebook and cancel other booking

    Frequently asked questions

    On hiring a car at Coober Pedy

    • Why are there no hire cars in Coober Pedy at certain times of the year?

      Our data shows that Coober Pedy, along with other isolated cities in Australia, book out of rental cars during peak seasons (i.e., school holidays and major town events) because of the limited amount of rental cars available by providers in the area. We recommend always booking well in advance for this location.

    • Is it cheaper to book a weekly car rental at Coober Pedy?

      The per-day rates of some rental cars may fall if you book for a longer rental period. Prices often change around daily, three-day, five-day and seven-day periods. Also, note that the selection of rental cars available at Coober Pedy may be more limited if you are looking for a long-term car rental, so it’s best to compare a few different booking durations first.
