Car Hire in Arthurs Point, Queenstown, New Zealand

Select a pickup location that's convenient for you. Many rental firms have desks at airports for quick access, while others might require a shuttle service.

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

Inquire whether the rental agency provides additional items such as GPS devices or child safety seats. These can enhance your trip but may incur extra costs, so plan ahead.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Before finalizing your reservation, check for any promotional offers or discounts. Many rental agencies provide seasonal deals or early bird rates.

To prevent incurring extra charges, return the rental vehicle at the specified time. Always check the scheduled return time to avoid any surprises.

If you’re sharing driving responsibilities, check the regulations regarding additional drivers. Some agencies may charge extra fees, while others might offer complimentary drivers under certain conditions.
