What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Twizel?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a good choice for your Twizel escape. That's why we recommend opting in to collision protection while organizing your rental car with Expedia.

It's possible that this is included in your rental price or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in Twizel with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked 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 matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most places 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 available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
