How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ruatapu?
Ruatapu rules state drivers must be 21 and over to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and stricter rental conditions. Many outlets impose a young renter fee in addition to the standard rental rate. This covers the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Ruatapu?
Renting a car in Ruatapu is a cinch. Normally, all you'll need is your driver's licence and a credit card. After settling on your wheels, read the terms and conditions to make sure there are no further requirements prior to your scheduled pickup.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ruatapu?
If you're renting a vehicle in Ruatapu or planning a road trip in greater New Zealand, prepare to drive on the left side of the road. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on a different side to what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel a little unfamiliar at first, so take things slow to begin with.
What is the cheapest car rental in Ruatapu?
Ruatapu has no doubt had some very happy rental car drivers lately. Daily rates within the past seven days dropped as low as AU$188 and AU$245. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.

Where can I find a Ruatapu car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that operate in Ruatapu. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, take note that additional costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before booking your rental car.
