What types of cars can I rent in Nelson?
Affordably priced, a breeze to handle and fuel-efficient, it's no coincidence that compact vehicles are the most popular type of rental in Nelson.

  • Roughly 55 mi from Nelson, Wollongong is a must-do for many visitors. With leading sights such as Wollongong City Beach, there's no shortage of places to visit here.
  • Another destination popular with travelers is Newcastle, around 70 mi away. Newcastle Beach is just one of many reasons why people keep coming back here.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Nelson with Expedia?
Check ratings and reviews, choose your favorite ride and compare offers from the most popular providers. Expedia makes it easy to track down the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your Nelson car rental with hotel or flight bookings and drive away with even more savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Nelson?
The minimum age to rent a car in Nelson is 21. A surcharge for young drivers will apply, so check before booking and factor in possible additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the types of vehicles that can be rented by young drivers. For instance, some outlets will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may vary between companies, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Nelson?
Any rental company you select will require two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Nelson?
Motorists in Nelson drive on the left, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to cars in the U.S. Take a while getting to know your new ride before venturing out.
What is the cheapest car rental in Nelson?
Based on prices found over the past seven days, you could've taken the wheel of your own rental car for just $31 a day. The second lowest daily price on offer in Nelson was $40. 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 Nelson?
Yes, and you can find your ideal wheels among our long-term car rental deals. Just enter your trip details and we'll list fabulous options from a range of quality providers.
Where can I find a Nelson car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Nelson rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be aware that some will charge extra fees. It's handy to know about this before collecting the vehicle 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 Nelson?
Start your road trip right by selecting Expedia's collision protection. While there are all sorts of insurance, this is one you should have. It provides primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as 24/7 emergency help. Don't wait until you get to the rental desk to insure your car. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Nelson ride with Expedia and save money and time.
