Premium, full-size, intermediate ... It's up to you! However, compact models are the top pick in Gladstone. If you're searching for something affordable and small, but not too small, this rental car category is an excellent choice. Navigating busy streets will be a cinch in one of these.

  • Wellington is roughly 80 kilometres from Gladstone. Famous tourist attractions like Te Papa deserve to be high on your list here.

Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Rules may differ between providers, so have a thorough read of your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Gladstone?
In Gladstone, as with all of New Zealand, motorists drive on the left-hand side. Take it slow at first and build confidence driving on the left if it's your first time.

Where can I find a Gladstone car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Managed to find a Gladstone outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? That's great!
