How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waiohau?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in Waiohau is 21. A young driver surcharge usually applies, so check before booking and budget for any extra costs.

What do you need to rent a car in Waiohau?
Any rental company you select will require two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd like 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 with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Waiohau?
In Waiohau and across New Zealand, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. This in itself can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. For a safer ride, take things slow to begin with and leave yourself some extra time to reach your destination.

Some Waiohau providers will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will apply a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
