How old do you have to be to rent a car in Tarawera?
In most cases, you need to be 21 years and over in Tarawera. You should be aware that most companies will apply a young renter surcharge. Read the fine print before you sign up, as rules may differ between rental car providers. Bear in mind that if you're planning to rent a luxury vehicle or a large car like a premium SUV, rules may require drivers to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Tarawera?
Most rental companies will require two things — a current driver's license and credit card. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
What side of the road do you drive on in Tarawera?
In Tarawera, you'll need to drive on the left-hand side. Be aware that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider choosing a car with automatic transmission if it's your first time driving on the left.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Tarawera?
Yes, and you'll find your perfect wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip dates and we'll show you fabulous offers from numerous reliable suppliers.
Where can I find a Tarawera car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies located in Tarawera. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that extra fees may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before booking your rental car.
