Explore this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city getaways or shorter road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in a full-size or premium --- there's a style of vehicle to suit you!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Drift Bay?
Drivers aged 21 and over can get on the road in Drift Bay in a rental car. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also be required to purchase inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or extra fees apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Drift Bay?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Drift Bay, you'll need a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. If you choose not to take out the rental company's insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental supplier.
What side of the road do you drive on in Drift Bay?
In Drift Bay, like the rest of New Zealand, you drive on the left-hand side. Take things slow and get comfortable driving on the opposite side if you've never done it before.

We looked into prices over the last seven days and found that the cheapest daily rate was $118. The next best price to rent a set of wheels in Drift Bay was $128 a day.

Where can I find a Drift Bay car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies that are found in Drift Bay. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental car.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Drift Bay?
For a safe, stress-free adventure, add Expedia's collision damage protection while reserving your rental car. This insurance covers your ride against collision damage, theft and vandalism. It also offers customers 24/7 emergency help in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Drift Bay ride with Expedia and save time and money at the rental counter.
