Car Rental in New Zealand

Kia Ora! We look forward to welcoming you to Aotearoa (Land of the Long White Cloud) when you pick up your car rental in New Zealand. By renting a car, you set the pace of your holiday, because you have no timetables or early morning schedules to keep (unless you want to). Driving in New Zealand, in both its urban and rural areas, is relatively easy and safe, so if you've got your full licence, a car rental in New Zealand makes for a great independent travel option.

New Zealand Map - To help you plan your trip, take a look at the map of New Zealand. The country is more than 1,000 miles in length (1,600 kilometres) and extremely diverse in terms of terrain. You'll find superb beaches, rainforest, extinct and active volcanoes, mountains, lakes, rivers and much more to enjoy on our shores.

Driving Times - Although New Zealand is a relatively small country in size (similar to the UK or Japan), it can take time to get around. It's always a good idea to check driving times carefully to make sure you still have time to enjoy your destination when you get there!

Auckland - Situated on the North Island, Auckland is the largest city in New Zealand. Enjoy Auckland's multi-cultural cuisine, active nightlife and shopping or use your car rental in New Zealand to explore further afield.

Christchurch - Christ Church, as it was originally called, is known as New Zealand's 'Garden City' due to its plentiful public parks and gardens. Christchurch is the gateway for New Zealand's South Island.
