Where can I go on a road trip from Auckland?
Auckland is full of fun adventures, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Grab a set of wheels and hit the road to explore the surrounding region. Here are some great options:

  • Rotorua is about 120 miles from Auckland. Famous sights like Skyline Rotorua should be at the top of your list here.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Auckland?
Drivers with a valid license aged 21 and above can rent a car in Auckland. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, they will add on fees. Find out what age range the young driver surcharge applies to, and the cost, before making your reservation. Outlets also restrict the types of cars available to young drivers. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Auckland?
Generally, all that's required is a driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Rules may differ between rental companies, so it's wise to check while booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Auckland?
In Auckland, be prepared to drive on the left-hand side. This obviously differs from driving in the U.S, so be mindful and pay extra attention when you're behind the steering wheel.
What is the cheapest car rental in Auckland?
Based on prices found over the past seven days, you could've taken the wheel of a rental car for just $30 per day. The second lowest daily price on offer in Auckland was $32. 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 Auckland?
Expedia makes it a cinch to find a quality long-term rental in Auckland. Just click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and compare your choices.
Where can I find an Auckland car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Auckland rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, some companies will charge additional costs. It's good to know this ahead of time so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Auckland?
Add collision damage protection while reserving your Auckland car rental with Expedia. This protects your ride against collision damage, theft and vandalism throughout your vacation. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and 24-hour emergency help, you can rest easy knowing you'll be covered if the unexpected occurs. Simply opt in to this insurance while booking your rental car.
Can I drive in Auckland with my current driver's license?
If you don't have 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 to be allowed to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may 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 available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
