How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kaikoura Flat?

What side of the road do you drive on in Kaikoura Flat?
In Kaikoura Flat, all vehicles drive on the left-hand side. This is obviously different from driving in the U.S, so minimize distractions and focus when you’re behind the steering wheel.

Yes. We partner with reputable suppliers that offer long-term holiday homes for many categories of cars. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every square inch of Kaikoura Flat — or way beyond!
Where can I find a Kaikoura Flat car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Kaikoura Flat outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won’t. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you’ll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some businesses will apply a surcharge to young drivers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
