Hi
I'm planning a trip from Adelaide to Alice Springs, Uluru, Kings Canyon and back.
I think it will take me about a week and for that time I plan to rent a car in Adelaide.
Could anyone give me some advices which car hire company has the best prices without rip-off fees?
Cheers
Jakub

Hi Jakub,
I always use vroomvroomvroom.com.au/ when renting cars, they compare all rental companies, once you have found the best deal, check the rental company webpage to check if there are specials (you can do the boking directly on Vroom), make yourself a VIP member of the rental company, you can do that on the webpage, usually the process is to fill up your profile and include your credit card details; by doing so your check in is easier and thay can give you the VIP discounts.
For that sort of trip I recomend a 4WD, however you will see a lot of people doing it in regular cars.
