Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You'll unlock even bigger savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Whangarei?
You'll need to be 21 and over to hop behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Whangarei. Take note that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as economy, compact and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for luxury and specialty vehicles. Most suppliers will also charge an additional fee for young renters. Check the rules before hitting the book button and factor any surcharge into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Whangarei?
Generally, you'll need a current driver's license and credit card in your name when picking up your car. You may also need proof of coverage if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between rental outlets, so it's wise to read the fine print.
What side of the road do you drive on in Whangarei?
In Whangarei, all vehicles drive on the left. This is obviously different from driving in the U.S, so be aware and concentrate while you're behind the wheel.
What is the cheapest car rental in Whangarei?

Where can I find a Whangarei car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Whangarei rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge additional costs. It's useful to know this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Whangarei?
Get your road trip off to a good start by purchasing Expedia's collision protection. While there are all kinds of rental car insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for vandalism, accident damage and theft up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency help. Don't wait until you arrive at the rental desk to insure your wheels. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Whangarei ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in Whangarei with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess 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 allowed to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license 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 driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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 available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental car.
