Perth airport will be the beginning of most visitors’ Western Australian adventure. It is so easy to pick up your rental car at the airport but you can get a cab to the city for around $30 AUD or a shuttle where prices start at about $15 AUD per person. The car rental service desks for all the leading companies can be found on the ground floor of Terminal 1 (International) and Terminals 2 & 3 (Domestic), and you should leave about half an hour to travel from the airport to the CBD. You can pick up a rental car in Perth too.
To see even a little of what this great city and huge and diverse state have to offer, a rental car is essential. If you want to visit famous Cottlesloe Beach or taste fabulous wines from Margeret River in Margeret River the easiest way to get there is to drive. And what better way to take in the spectacular scenery and coastline than a self-drive cruise up to Broome and the magnificent Kimberley.
