Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Dunedin Intl. Airport (DUD)?
With Budget and Europcar within a short drive of Dunedin Intl. Airport (DUD), getting off the plane and hitting the open road is a cinch.

What types of cars can I rent in Long Beach?
Keep it simple with an economy, style it up in a premium ride or go for something in between, like an intermediate. But it's hard to beat a compact vehicle --- the most commonly booked rental type in Long Beach. They're a snap to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're visiting busy cities. A step up from economy, you can expect slightly more comfort and room at a price that won't break the bank.

  • Invercargill is roughly 193 kilometres from Long Beach. Famous tourist spots like Bill Richardson Transport World deserve to be high on your list here.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Long Beach?

What do you need to rent a car in Long Beach?
Generally, all you'll need is a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when collecting your vehicle. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements often differ between providers, so be sure to check before booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Long Beach?
If you take the wheel in Long Beach, you'll have to drive on the left. Take note that the steering wheel will also be on the opposite side to what you're familiar with. Consider choosing a car with automatic transmission for an easier motoring experience.

Where can I find a Long Beach car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies operating in Long Beach. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25, keep in mind that additional costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
