How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waitao?
Waitao requires drivers to be at least 21 to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and tighter home conditions.

You'll generally require a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name when collecting the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules may differ between home providers, so it's always wise to check before you book.
What side of the road do you drive on in Waitao?
