KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Mount Gambier

  • Having car hire in Mount Gambier is a huge advantage for those visiting and exploring the sights, as public transport is very limited. The Mount Gambier Bus Service only operates five days a week, meaning that any adventure planned on the weekend will limit your options to the city on foot or by utilising taxis and the Free City Bike Hire. If you want to see sights a little further than you want to walk or ride to, Mount Gambier car hire will be needed.
  • Your journey to Mount Gambier will most likely be via Mount Gambier Airport (MGB), where there are four hire car offices on site to provide you with your Mount Gambier car hire. There are signs to direct you from the arrivals area to the hire car offices. Don’t forget to bring with you a confirmation of your reservation, your driver’s licence and a credit card in your name to cover the costs of the booking. If you are nominating a second driver, they will also need to provide their driver’s licence.
  • Driving your car hire in Mount Gambier should be a breeze, as the city is not particularly large or busy and doesn’t present any really difficult intersections or things to be wary of that some bigger cities may. The city is well maintained and connected by major highways and sealed roads and has a generally simple layout.
  • Weekday evenings tend to see the highest volume of traffic in Mount Gambier, as locals head home. Usually peak hour is around 16:30-18:00. Weekends will sometimes see heavy traffic in late mornings and afternoons, as locals head out for weekends away. South Australia generally has a warm climate; however, it can see some rain in winter months, which can add some time to traffic as drivers slow down for safety.
  • Economy rental cars in Mount Gambier are around 82% cheaper than other car types, on average
