How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waima?
Drivers aged 21 and above can get on the road in Waima in a rental vehicle. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies.

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

Where can I find a Waima car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Waima rental suppliers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, some companies will charge extra costs. It's ideal to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
