They're a great option for solo adventurers, couples and families on a budget. Of course, how you cruise around is your call!

Everyone knows that Ararata is one of the best getaways in Taranaki. But you'll also find tons of other fantastic spots to explore when you lock in a set of wheels and get out on the open road. Here are some tips to get your road trip off to a superb start:

  • Home to sights and activities galore, New Plymouth is around 56 kilometres from Ararata. First stop on the list? Head straight for Bowl of Brooklands, one of this city's highlights.

Expedia makes it quick and easy to compare prices, offers and home providers, and to check reviews. Bundle your Ararata car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ararata?
You have to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related rules you should know about before locking in your Ararata wheels. If you're a younger driver, many home providers will charge an additional fee and limit the kinds of cars you're able to rent. The surcharge amount, and which age range it applies to, differs between outlets. It's a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Ararata?
While booking conditions may differ between rental car outlets in Ararata, the two key things you'll need are your driver's license and a credit card. You don't need to take out insurance with your home company. However, proof of your own coverage may be necessary.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ararata?
Unlike the U.S, people in Ararata drive on the left side of the road. Having the steering wheel and some other controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the car and its quirks before driving off.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ararata?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then secure your perfect ride. Whether you're staying put in Ararata or venturing beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term home at an amazing rate.
Where can I find an Ararata car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a car rental in Ararata, we recommend checking the policies of the car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25  some may not. There may be surcharges if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you do your research.
