New Zealand is a very popular place for vacations. Whether you’re stopping in Christchurch for a quick visit or planning a month’s trip exploring from Bay of Islands to Bluff, New Zealand has a vacation for you.
A hire car is a fantastic way to travel New Zealand. Well maintained roads and beautiful views make driving here fun, and your hire car lets you detour and enjoy the sights in your own time.
Wellington, the country’s capital, is a great city to explore for a few days. Hire an affordable rental vehicle suited for city driving so you can sample the city’s quality shopping, vibrant night-life and gourmet dining, plus the many beautiful scenic areas so close to the city. Te Papa Museum is a must-see destination, and you shouldn’t miss an evening watching the incredible World Of Wearable Art show.
City life is not the only attraction New Zealand has to offer – there is a lot more to do and see. Many people come to experience the stunning landscapes and incredible natural beauty of these islands after seeing them in movies like The Piano. In the North Island drive along the shores of the country’s largest fresh water lake and visit boiling geysers, national parks and exotic black sand beaches. Drive through sculptural limestone rock formations in the South Island and enjoy beautiful views of snow capped mountains and picturesque river valleys.
Whether you want adventure or relaxation, every part of New Zealand offers a beautiful backdrop for your vacation.
If you want outdoor adventure and sporting activities, you’ll get them here. If you want snow sports, rent an affordable hire vehicle to get you to the ski-field of your choice. New Zealand’s quality slopes make this country a popular destination for both snowboarding and skiing. New Zealand’s stunning landscapes promise endless opportunities for walkers any time of year, so when you want to explore on foot you’ll enjoy great hikes and day walks wherever you’re staying. If you like fishing, New Zealand’s seas, rivers and lakes are famous for trophy trout and salmon so choose a 4WD hire vehicle to get you to those out-of-the-way fishing spots.
A New Zealand self drive vacation is a great choice – create a unique trip that fits your length of stay and your budget. There’s so much to see and do in New Zealand, and your hire car lets you have your choice of New Zealand’s spectacular scenery, unique experiences and idyllic holiday spots.
