How old do you have to be to rent a car in Devils Staircase?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Devils Staircase. Take into account that rental suppliers will charge an additional fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young motorists are usually restricted from renting larger vehicles and luxury cars. Thoroughly read the fine print before you book so there are no hassles when it's time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Devils Staircase?
Two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you prefer to opt out. Be sure to check with your rental provider to avoid any issues.
What side of the road do you drive on in Devils Staircase?
In Devils Staircase, like all of New Zealand, motorists drive on the left-hand side. Take things slow and get comfortable driving on the opposite side if you've never done it before.
What is the cheapest car rental in Devils Staircase?
The two cheapest daily rates on offer in Devils Staircase within the past seven days were $167 and $217. Now that's what we'd call a bargain!

Where can I find a Devils Staircase car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies operating in Devils Staircase. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Devils Staircase?
Start your road trip right by choosing Expedia's collision damage protection. While there are all kinds of rental car 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-hour emergency support. Don't wait until you get to the rental counter to insure your precious ride. Opt in to collision protection while booking your Devils Staircase ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in Devils Staircase with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
