Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Tamarau car reservation?
No need to worry. You should get a total refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours ahead of the arranged pickup time. Your itinerary contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all bookings result in a refund though, so you may want to read through the policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Tamarau?
Keep things low-cost with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to beat a compact vehicle — the top choice in Tamarau. They're a snap to handle and park, fuel-efficient and an excellent idea if you're driving around cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a little more comfort and room while still getting a terrific deal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Tamarau?
Tamarau is full of adventures, but don't restrict yourself to one place. Book a set of wheels and take to the road to see what else awaits in the surrounding region. These are some great options:

  • You'll discover Napier Beach and lots more interesting attractions in Napier. From Tamarau, it's roughly 137 kilometres away.
  • About 161 kilometres away, Rotorua is also a favourite with wanderers. Set aside time to get to Skyline Rotorua while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this buzzing city.
  • Onetangi Beach is approximately 338 kilometres from Tamarau and is one of the region's most gorgeous nature spots. Go for a wander around and enjoy the fresh air here.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Tamarau with Expedia?
Expedia makes it quick and easy to compare rates, offers and providers, and to check customer reviews. Combine your Tamarau car rental with flight or hotel bookings to save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Tamarau?
The minimum age to rent a car in Tamarau is 21. An extra fee for young drivers applies, so check before you book and factor in possible additional costs. There may also be restrictions on the sorts of cars that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some providers will only rent out economy, compact and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules vary between suppliers, so read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Tamarau?
Most rental companies will need these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Tamarau?
In Tamarau, as with all of New Zealand, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. 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 Tamarau?
Yes. We partner with reputable providers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many car classes. Head to our long-term car rental deals and explore every part of Tamarau — or beyond!
Where can I find a Tamarau 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 Tamarau supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just keep in mind that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at should have all the details you need.
