What side of the road do you drive on in Paraite?
If you're renting a car in Paraite or planning a big road trip in New Zealand, remember that you'll be driving on the left-hand side. Also, the steering wheel will be on the opposite side of what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may feel unfamiliar at first, so take things slow at the start.

Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and book a ride to call your own for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Paraite car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Paraite rental providers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge additional fees. It's handy to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
