Good news! You should be given all of your money back if you advise us a minimum of six hours before pickup. Your confirmation contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings result in a refund though, so you may want to read through your rental agreement.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Athol with Expedia?
Pick up the best deal with Expedia. Simply choose the car class, select your dates and preferred pickup and drop-off points, and compare offers from major rental brands. Save even more when you combine your Athol car rental with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Athol?
Drivers with a valid license aged 21 and over can rent a car in Athol. While some providers may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, you can expect extra fees. Find out what ages the young driver surcharge applies to, and the cost, before locking in your ride. Outlets also restrict the types of cars young drivers can rent. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Athol?
Any rental company you choose will require two things — a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Athol?
If you're renting a car in Athol, you'll have to drive on the left-hand side of the road. Be aware that the steering wheel will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider booking a vehicle with automatic transmission if it's your first time driving on the left.
What is the cheapest car rental in Athol?
$167 and $217 were the cheapest daily rates for rental cars in Athol within the past seven days. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Athol?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your vacation. Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and secure a ride that's all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find an Athol car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a car rental in Athol, it'd be wise to check the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any nasty surprises at the rental counter, make sure you do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Athol?
For a safe, stress-free road trip, add Expedia's collision damage protection to your car rental reservation. This insurance covers your ride against collision damage, theft and vandalism. It also offers customers 24/7 emergency support in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Athol ride with Expedia and save time and money at the rental counter.
Can I drive in Athol with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before sliding behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
