KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Welshpool
- Getting a car hire in Welshpool is the best way to explore the city and its surrounding areas. The public transport system can be confusing to visitors and isn't very comprehensive outside the city centre. Additionally, a hire car will allow you to make day trips to nearby attractions, such as Swan Valley, The Pinnacles and Perth Hills.
- Welshpool car hire can be picked up from Perth Airport (PER); Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4 all have car hire desks available. With multiple options, we recommend booking ahead through KAYAK to get the right car ready and waiting for you. From Perth Airport, it is roughly a 13min drive to Welshpool.
- When driving your car hire in Welshpool, make sure you watch out for wildlife on the road. Although it is a more urban area of Western Australia, it is still likely that you will encounter wildlife, such as wallabies, possums and even kangaroos. You may not encounter as many bikes on the road because cyclists can ride on footpaths in Western Australia. However, it is important to be aware pedestrians are given the right of way over cyclists on footpaths, and cyclists are given the right of way over cars on roads.
- Weather will likely be your biggest difficulty when driving in Welshpool. If visiting during hot weather periods, keep an eye on bushfire warnings, as smoke from bushfires may impede visibility. Additionally during intense heat, we recommend always keeping water with you in your Welshpool car hire. There may also be intense rain and wind that you will need to be prepared for. During the wet season, certain roads may flood and subsequently may only open to certain vehicles or be closed entirely. If you head far outside of Welshpool, you may find yourself driving on gravel roads; on these roads, make sure to avoid braking suddenly and slow down when turning.
