Look over your itinerary for the finer details or click through to our Customer Service Portal to find out more.
What types of cars can I rent in Waikawau?
Affordability, ease of parking and superb mileage are some of the reasons compact cars are the preference in Waikawau. Their small size makes them ideal for getting around the city. They're a good fit for couples, solo adventurers and families on a budget. Of course, how you get around is your call! Go even smaller with a mini or economy, or get more legroom with an intermediate or a full-size. Chasing a little luxury? You'll love our premium options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Waikawau?
Waikawau is full of fun adventures, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Grab a set of wheels and take to the road to see what's in the wider area. Here are a few ideas:

  • Head to Auckland for an excellent sightseeing experience. Around 64 kilometres from Waikawau, it's home to tons of inspiring sights such as Sky Tower.
  • Your next pit stop? It has to be Rotorua, which is around 153 kilometres away. Skyline Rotorua is one local draw card you really shouldn't miss.
  • Visit Napier Beach to discover some local nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just relax and unwind. From Waikawau, it's around 322 kilometres away.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Waikawau with Expedia?
Check out customer reviews, choose your preferred car class and compare offers from top suppliers. Expedia makes it a cinch to get the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Waikawau car rental with hotel or flight bookings and drive off with extra savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waikawau?
Waikawau requires drivers to be 21 and above to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and some restrictions. Most providers impose a young renter fee in addition to the normal car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty and premium cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Waikawau?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
What side of the road do you drive on in Waikawau?
If you're renting a car in Waikawau or road-tripping around New Zealand, remember that you'll be driving on the left-hand side. Also, the steering wheel and some controls will be on a different side to what you're used to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so drive with extra caution.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Waikawau?
Whether you have plans to hang around Waikawau or journey beyond, you can book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip details and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find fantastic long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Waikawau car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a little research. Managed to find a Waikawau outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Great news! Just take note that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering should have all the information you need.
