Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Newcastle?
Set your own course in Newcastle, with car rental prices as low as AU$34 per day. That's based on prices found within the past seven days. With rates like this, it'll be a cinch to find a ride that suits your style.
What happens if I need to cancel my Newcastle car reservation?
Don't stress. You should be eligible for a total refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours before the arranged pickup time. Your itinerary contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings result in a refund though, so you may want to check the cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Newcastle?
Almost any type you like! We've got an impressive range of rental options, from standard and economy cars to SUVs and luxury premiums. Small, sleek and affordable, minis are the most booked car category in Newcastle. These zippy rides are the perfect option for quick trips around town. Save big on gas as you make your way through the bustling city streets. And don't stress about finding a spot for your wheels — sneaking into tight car spaces is easy in a mini!
Where can I go on a road trip from Newcastle?
There are so many things to do in Newcastle, but head further afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Organise a set of wheels and you can discover the surrounding area at your own pace. Add these awesome drives to your travel plan:

  • Bethal is about 153 kilometres from Newcastle. Popular tourist spots like Bethal Dam deserve to be at the top of your list while you're in town.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Newcastle?
Usually, the requirement is 18 years and over in Newcastle. You should be aware that most companies will charge additional fees for young renters. Check before you pick your ride, as different rules may apply between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you're planning to rent a luxury ride or a large car like an SUV, rules may require drivers to be older than 18.
What do you need to rent a car in Newcastle?
Two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Be sure to check with your rental agency to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in Newcastle?
If you're renting a car in Newcastle or planning a road trip around South Africa, remember that you'll be driving on the left. Also, the steering wheel and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel unfamiliar at first, so take things slow at the start.
What is the cheapest car rental in Newcastle?
We looked into prices over the last seven days and found that the lowest daily rate was AU$34. The next best price for rental vehicles in Newcastle was AU$37 a day. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Newcastle?
Yes. We partner with trusted companies that offer long-term rentals for many categories of cars. Book one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every inch of Newcastle — or beyond!
Where can I find a Newcastle car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Newcastle companies will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
