What types of cars can I rent in Kingston?
Inexpensive, easy to operate and delivering excellent mileage, it's no coincidence that compact vehicles are the most sought-after rental category in Kingston. Tour this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is perfect for city escapes or quick road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!
Where can I go on a road trip from Kingston?
With your own vehicle, cruising around the surrounding areas is a piece of cake. Kingston is an obvious place to start, but there's tons more to see in the region. Grab the keys to a rental, fling your bags in the trunk and take a peek at these other popular spots:

  • Boasting sights and activities galore, Dunedin is around 95 mi from Kingston. First stop on the itinerary? Make a beeline for Larnach Castle, one of the city's biggest highlights.
  • Invercargill, around 75 mi away, also promises a memorable time. Curious what there is to see? Civic Theatre is our first pick.
  • Get away from the fast pace of the city at Aoraki / Mount Cook. Approximately 140 mi from Kingston, it's a great place to spend time in nature.

What side of the road do you drive on in Kingston?
In Kingston and across New Zealand, you'll need to drive on the left-hand side. This can be daunting enough, but the driver's seat and some controls are also on the other side to what you're used to.
