Which ferry company you choose, you will be at which pier.

Why do you want to return the car? You can tell the rental company that you want to exchange cars in the South Island, so you can leave the car at the return point at the ferry terminal, and then go to the South Island terminal to pick up another car.

Generally, you can return the car at a pier. Can you adjust the car return store?

Help, I'm from the South Island and returning to the North Island. I rented a car from Budget. Today I received an email saying that the rental car company wants me to return the car at the ferry terminal, and then pick it up at the Wellington terminal. It's really inconvenient.

Returning the car to a different location and transporting it by ship may not be very cost-effective, but driving from Auckland to Wellington is also considered returning the car to a different location. Then, picking up another car in Picton and returning it in Queenstown is also considered returning the car to a different location. If the cost difference is not too big, maybe it's still more convenient to take the car by ship to the South Island, right ? New Zealand Q&A

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to take a taxi from Emperor Town to the airport at 5 am? We haven't arrived in Queenstown yet, so I don't know the situation. Our flight is at 7:30 am, so we need to get to the airport very early! I'd appreciate any advice.

What should I do if I drive a Road trip car with four elderly people for nine days in the South Island? Should I rent a Highlander or a larger MPV like the Toyota Alphard? Which one has more space? My main concern is that the MPV may not have enough power, and I don't know what the road conditions are like. I'm worried that it will be difficult to drive. Thank you everyone ? New Zealand Q&A

1. Left-hand driving: You can get used to it quickly, and even if you violate it, because everyone can see each other, it generally does not cause consequences. Of course, affecting others will be despised and scolded. 2. GIVE WAY and STOP: Most important! Must be strictly enforced! At intersections with GIVE WAY and STOP signs, you must stop and look carefully before entering the main road. Vehicles on the main road (including roundabouts) will absolutely not slow down to let vehicles from the side road enter. 3. Speed limit: If you cannot see the speed limit outside the city or when there is no speed limit, follow the maximum of 100, otherwise follow the speed limit. 4. Curves have suggested speeds, as stated in the driving promotional video for newcomers to New Zealand: 'If you feel uneasy when you see the speed limit, you can slow down.' 5. Speeding: In the North Island, you can drive at the speed limit +10 (on holidays +5), and there are few slow vehicles on the road. The maximum speed for vehicles with trailers may be 80, but everyone can silently follow along... 6. Overtaking: Very few people overtake on most ordinary roads. Highways have sections with overtaking lanes, which are uphill, and vehicles with good power will overtake at this time. (The gentle GL made me give up the idea of using the overtaking lane). There will be signs on the highway indicating the distance to the next overtaking lane, so there is no need to rush to overtake. 7. Windshield wipers and turn signals: Opposite to the right-hand driving position, this is what I am least accustomed to. Every time the windshield wipers resolutely swing in front of my eyes when turning, I can feel the concerned and disdainful looks from the surroundings... And, even if you turn on the turn signal, you may not be able to stop the windshield wipers immediately... 8. Crossing lines: From observation, all the lines here can be crossed, but no one drives on the lines for a long time. 9. Parking: Most parking in the North Island is free. I only parked in a paid parking lot twice, and it was quite expensive. 10. Haven't paid any tolls ? New Zealand Q&A

So suggest people rent cars with credit cards and make sure your credit cards have rental car insurance. My card has it, so I don't have to buy any collision insurance. After getting home, I just fill out an online claim form, upload all the photos, documents, and credit card records when I rented the car, etc. Two weeks later, I received an email saying the claim was approved, and all the windshield fees that the rental car company deducted from me were returned to me. They asked me how I wanted them to send the money to me ? New Zealand Q&A

Hello everyone, I would like to ask if I need to buy full insurance when renting a car. I noticed that full insurance is very expensive in Queenstown.

The service staff took a lot of pictures when I picked up the car. I thought they were professional, so I didn't take any pictures (besides, I thought that since I had full insurance, there wouldn't be any problems if an accident happened). Today, when I returned the car, a different lady looked at it very carefully and found a little damage to the paint. She didn't compare it to the pictures when I picked up the car. She just emphasized that I didn't need to make any payments, but asked me to sign. I wondered if the insurance company was playing some kind of trick ? New Zealand Q&A

Apply for an electronic visa to New Zealand online, fill in the name according to the requirements, and find that the displayed name is opposite to the passport. If this is issued, the name should also be reversed. How do you fill in when you apply? For example, the visa is XU ZHANG, and the passport is ZHANG XU. Or do you need to reverse the order of the name when applying for the visa to keep it consistent with the order of the passport ? New Zealand Q&A
