Here you will find camper van and car rental / hire information for Auckland and Christchurch regions New Zealand
You can rent a car in New Zealand if:
- You’re over 21 years old and the holder of a valid international drivers’ licence or a current local licence. UK licence holders may drive for 6 months in Australia (after which they are required to take a local driving test), and it is usually accepted by rental companies.
- Some vehicle hire companies require the driver to be over the age of 25. Other companies have lower minimum age requirements, such as 18 or 21, and may require a surcharge.
- You understand and agree to uphold the road rules of New Zealand. It’s especially easy for visitors from the UK or South Africa to drive in New Zealand, as traffic drives on the left, BUT remember the local rules and that conditions are different!
