How old do you have to be to rent a car in Blenheim?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle in Blenheim is 21. A young driver surcharge typically applies, so check before you book and take into account any additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the sorts of cars that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Requirements may vary between suppliers, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Blenheim?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Requirements are likely to differ between rental outlets, so it's a good idea to check before booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Blenheim?
Unlike the States, motorists in Blenheim drive on the left side of the road. Having the driver's seat and controls like indicators on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a moment to familiarise yourself with the car and its quirks before embarking on your journey.

Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
