How do I find the best car hire deals in Gold Coast with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a breeze to compare fees, offers and providers, and to check customer reviews. Combine your Gold Coast car hire with hotel or flight bookings to make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Gold Coast?
Drivers aged 21 and above can road trip around Gold Coast in a hire vehicle. If you’re a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll usually have fewer car categories to choose from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to buy inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to hire a car in Gold Coast?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your car.
What is the cheapest car rental in Gold Coast?
According to prices found within the past seven days, the lowest daily rate for a hire vehicle in Gold Coast was just £33. The second lowest price was £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.

Visit our long-term car hire deals page, enter your trip information and then book your perfect ride. Whether you’re basing yourself in Gold Coast or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term hire at an awesome rate.
Where can I find a Gold Coast hire car if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the hire companies located in Gold Coast. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental.
