Kalgoorlie Car Rental

One of the must see attractions for every visitor to Kalgoorlie is the Australian Prospectors and Miners Hall of Fame.  This is located 7km north of Kalgoorlie and with you own hire car, getting there and back again couldn’t be easier.  A hire car will also enable you to explore the nearby twin town, Boulder which is also of historical importance to this area.

An excellent way to learn more about the Goldfields region is to head north from Kalgoorlie to the townships of Broad Arrow (population just 20) and Menzies (population 100).  Menzies has several buildings of historical significance for visitors to explore including the Menzies Town Hall, which has no clock in its clock tower (to find out why make sure you stop in on your way through).  Further North again is the railhead of Leonora and then Gwalia which is said to be a ‘ghost town’ and is home to the large sons of Gwalia Gold mine. 

Most of Australia ’s major car hire companies are represented in Kalgoorlie, including Budget, Avis, Hertz, Europcar and Thrifty.  Prices vary depending on the make and model of vehicle you choose and the length of time you hire it for, however as a guide you can rent a manual, 3 door Hyundai Getz from as little as approx $68 per day.  If you are looking for something a little larger and with more power, choose a Holden Commodore for around $120 per day or a Toyota 4wd dual cab for under $130 per day. 

Make sure you shop around for car hire in Kalgoorlie  as you will find that most operators are very competitive and will offer special deals such as included kilometers or free additional days on top of their daily rates.
