How old do you have to be to rent a car in Akaroa?
If you’re aged 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Akaroa. Bear in mind that most rental suppliers will charge an additional fee if you’re a young driver, which helps cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are often restricted from renting larger or luxury models of cars. Check the fine print before booking to avoid any problems when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Akaroa?
A valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Requirements can differ between rental companies, so read your policy thoroughly.
What side of the road do you drive on in Akaroa?
If you’re renting a vehicle in Akaroa or planning a big road trip in New Zealand, you’ll be driving on the left side of the road. Also, the steering wheel will be on a different side to what you’re used to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so take things slow at the start.

Where can I find an Akaroa car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Akaroa rental providers you’re considering. If you’re under 25, be aware that some will charge additional fees. It’s good to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it’d be wise to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Akaroa?
Make a safe start to your road trip by selecting Expedia’s collision protection. While there are all kinds of rental car insurance, this is one you should have.
