Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Owhata car reservation?

What types of cars can I rent in Owhata?
Not too small and not too big, compact vehicles are the top pick for many travellers to Owhata. With superb mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they're ideal for exploring the city. A compact offers slightly more space than an economy vehicle, so you can cruise around in a bit more comfort. Prefer a bit more legroom? Check out our intermediate, standard or full-size range.

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

Generally, all that's required is a driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the vehicle.

What side of the road do you drive on in Owhata?
If you're renting a vehicle in Owhata, you'll have to stick to the left. Note that the steering wheel will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider choosing a car with automatic transmission for an easier motoring experience.
