What do you need to rent a car in Queenstown?
Generally, you’ll need a current driver’s license and credit card in your name when collecting your car. You may also need proof of coverage if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance plan. Rules may differ between providers, so be sure to read the fine print.
Can I drive in Queenstown with my U.S. Driver's license?
You can explore the roads of Queenstown with a valid U.S. License. But if you’d like extra peace of mind, apply for an International Driving Permit before you depart. It’s an additional useful form of identification to have while you’re traveling.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Queenstown?
You can, and the great news is suppliers often offer lower prices the longer your rental term. Look through our long-term car rental deals in Queenstown and drive off with an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Queenstown car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Queenstown providers will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won’t. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you’ll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some places will pass on a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
