How do I find the best car rental deals in Somerville with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy and fast to compare fees, offers and rental providers, and to check reviews. Bundle your Somerville car rental with hotel or flight bookings to save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Somerville?
Rental vehicle rules in Somerville require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Some restrictions and surcharges could apply. Rental providers impose what's known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the car rental cost. Restrictions often apply to the categories of cars young drivers can rent as well. Age limits may vary between companies, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Somerville?
Any rental company you choose will need these two things — your driver's licence and credit card. If you'd prefer to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Somerville?
In Somerville, like the rest of New Zealand, motorists drive on the left. Go slower to build confidence driving on the opposite side if you've never done it before.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Somerville?
Expedia makes it a snap to book a reliable long-term rental in Somerville. Simply head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and compare the offers.
Where can I find a Somerville car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Somerville rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some will charge extra costs. It's handy to know this before arriving at the desk so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
