Just be aware that an extra charge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Lincoln?
A thorough insurance plan is a smart idea for your Lincoln vacation. That's why we suggest choosing collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and collision damage. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for.
Can I drive in Lincoln 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 able to rent a car. You should also note that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country 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. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
