Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Opotiki car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours in advance of the pickup time, the majority of prepaid rentals offer a complete refund. However, not all are eligible for this, so it's important to familiarise yourself with the rental policy. Check your itinerary for the details or visit our Customer Service Portal to find out more.
What types of cars can I rent in Opotiki?
Not too small and not too big, compact cars are the top choice for many travellers to Opotiki. With superb gas mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they're ideal for dashing around the city. A compact offers slightly more room than an economy vehicle, so you can tour around in a little more comfort and style. Want something bigger? Browse our intermediate, standard or full-size range.
Where can I go on a road trip from Opotiki?
Opotiki is full of adventures, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Pick up a set of wheels and head off to explore the surrounding region. Here are a few ideas:

  • Napier is roughly 161 kilometres from Opotiki. Renowned sights like Napier Beach deserve a place on your must-see list while you're in town.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Opotiki with Expedia?
Check out customer ratings and reviews, choose your car class and compare prices from the most popular brands. Expedia makes it a cinch to nab the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Opotiki car rental with flight or hotel bookings and hit the road with extra savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Opotiki?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle in Opotiki is 21. A surcharge for young drivers will apply, so check before you book and budget for any extra 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 economy to medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Rules vary between providers, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Opotiki?
A current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of other coverage. Requirements may differ between rental companies, so be sure to read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Opotiki?
Unlike the States, motorists in Opotiki drive on the left-hand side. Having the steering wheel and some other controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a moment to familiarise yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before starting your journey.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Opotiki?
Whether you plan to stop in Opotiki or travel beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find fantastic long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find an Opotiki car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental car companies operating in Opotiki. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25, bear in mind that additional costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
