Travel Guides and Information

Car hire in New Zealand is a great way to get around while on holiday and offers a great way to see the country according to your own time schedule. Taking guided tours, taxis or buses, is effective enough, however these forms of transportation tend to limit how you see New Zealand and the things you can do along the way.

If you're more of a free spirit and you want to make your own path in New Zealand, you should consider car hire as a transportation option instead. Just remember to drive on the left hand side of the road and you should have no troubles navigating around on your holiday.

Finding car hire companies in New Zealand is easy, a simple search online will prove this. New Zealand vehicle rental companies have a wide range of vehicles available, with something for everyone, no matter what they might be looking for. You can find hatchbacks, station wagons, sedans, four wheel drive autos and motor home vehicles, plus a range of rental prices to suit your personal budget. Keep in mind that most vehicles for hire will be non-smoking.

What else can you expect from a vehicle hire company in New Zealand?

- 24 hour emergency assistance
- A Brief of New Zealand driving laws
- Free child restraint seats and snow chains for winter rentals
- Tips and assistance with attractions, lodging, and planning
- Unlimited kilometres, insurance, and GST included in the cost of hire
- Automatic transmission
- Air conditioning

Once you know which type of car you would like, how much you can afford to spend on rental, and how long you will need one for, you can start to plan other elements of your holiday, such as what accommodations you will require and list sites and attractions that you would like to see.

Please keep in mind that if you're used to driving on the right side of the road (and the car), that you'll want to make sure that you are 100% comfortable with driving the New Zealand way before you pay for a car hire that you won't use. For those who are capable and comfortable driving in New Zealand, you will soon realise that this form of transport is simply the best way to experience this country.
