How old do you have to be to rent a car in Tauwhareparae?
Drivers 21 and over can go road-tripping around Tauwhareparae in a rental car. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies.

Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in Tauwhareparae?
The main things are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking your policy terms and conditions to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Tauwhareparae?
In Tauwhareparae, you'll always be driving on the left-hand side. This is obviously different from driving in the U.S, so be aware and pay extra attention while you're behind the wheel.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Tauwhareparae?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental vehicle halfway through your holiday. Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and secure a set of wheels to call your own for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Tauwhareparae car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Tauwhareparae rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It's good to know this before collecting the vehicle so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
