Location information for New Zealand

New Zealand is best explored by rental car. CarhireSaving has over 101 pick-up locations in New Zealand. This means there is always a pick-up location close to your destination.

New Zealand captivates visitors with not only outstanding natural beauty, but the warm openness of its people. Hire car is the most enjoyable way to explore New Zealand.

Auckland is nestled between two stunning bays where the Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea almost meet. To take in the stunning surroundings, One Tree Hill and Mount Eden are good viewpoints, but the view from the Sky Tower is unrivalled. There are also a few good beaches easily reached by cheap hire car in New Zealand.

The nation's capital, Wellington, is a great place for shopping and dining. Thorndon has some historic offerings and the new Te Papa museum if well worth a visit. By hire car drive along Oriental Bay, a particularly beautiful spot at sunset.

Rotorua is a tourist hotspot; the striking scene of lakes formed by volcanic action is a great place to gain insight into Maori culture.

By hire car in New Zealand you can reach Lake Taupo in the centre of the north island. From here, you can go trout fishing or trek to the Tongariro crossing – a one day hike in a collapsed volcano crater.

On the South Island, the Marlborough Sounds are a stunning sight. By hiring a rental car you can drive Further down the west coast to reach the Fox Glaciers.

Queenstown is for the energetic, offering a host of outdoor pursuits. A few hours' drive by car rental takes you to Fiordland National Park, a breathtaking landscape of mountains, ice and forests. The exquisite Milford Sound is also nearby.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is CarhireSaving the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
