Thrifty Car Rental Ayers Rock Airport

Totally the most amazing customer service from Casey, wow! We couldn’t pick up the car at the airport due to documentation issues, so she drove us into town, right to our resort accommodation. Then, when we pulled up the necessary documentation online, she met us at the town centre Thrifty desk to organise our car there. Our trip was back on track, thanks to Casey’s dedication to the customer experience. If you’re getting a car at AYQ, do yourself a favour and go Thrifty!

Kacey the manager was amazing. She is the only full time staff at the moment.

Tip: only when booking via Voyage Travel (the official’s travel page for red centre) you can get unlimited km and more car availability (and probably better price). Direct booking on the website would not give you this option. Best to book the car at least a month beforehand.

An excellent car hire experience with Thrifty at AYQ. The vehicle was in great condition, and the team were very accommodating with a last minute change to our booking. Thank you!

Great service from Chris (I think it was!) when I picked up my Kia Carnival. Thanks!

Flight was delayed by 5 hours, the rental service was supposed to be closed on arrival but they stayed open and ensured we could collect the vehicle. The 100km limit a day is not ideal for the area, one return trip from the resort to the rock will use the allowance up pretty quickly. 30 cents per KM thereafter..overall good experience.

Very expensive car rental, which you are not aware of at the time of hiring.
The daily limit is 100 km only!!!
Uluru to Kata Tjuta back and forth already 100 km. You will pay lots of fuel charge.
I paid more than 520 dollars for 1 day!!!!
Three days earlier, I only paid 400 dollars for 3 days of car hiring in Melbourne for driving the full Great Ocean Road.
I wouldn't recommend this company.

When We had the paperwork done and the payment made, the nice lady at the Thrifty counter told us that we had included in the price ONLY 100 KM per DAY. Hundred km per day in Australia 🇦🇺!!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
Initially we thought it was a joke but it wasn’t. All the following km charged at 0.37 A$/km.
We will never EVER rent a car with this rental company.

Very overpriced, paid over 500$ for 1 day. Also the daily limit is 100km, the following kms were charged.
