New Zealand is a traveller's dream, with two islands bursting with exciting adventures and activities. To maximise your visit to New Zealand, a rental car enables you to travel at your leisure and absorb the surroundings at your own pace.

You are never far from the coast in Auckland; this city nestled between two stunning bays enjoys its prime location. Its tallest building, the Sky Tower offers visitors a bird's eye view of the city.

Wellington also boasts a superb location overlooking the sea. After browsing the shops, enjoy dinner at one of Wellington's many restaurants or watch the sunset over the sandy Oriental Bay. The new, bold Te Papa museum allows visitors to experience the whole of New Zealand and is well worth a visit.

By cheap hire car in New Zealand, travel north to take in the Bay of Islands, where you can find the deserted Ninety Mile Beach and verdant Kauri forests.

The South Island offers visitors an equally impressive experience and exploring by hire car allows maximum enjoyment. The Marlborough Sounds will take your breath away and by following the remote west coast road you can see the Fox glaciers.

Queenstown offers a range of exciting activities that aren't for the faint hearted. Lake Wakitipu is nearby and the snow-capped Remarkables Range paint a dramatic backdrop for this lively tourist hub.

A few hours' drive by cheap hire car in New Zealand will lead you to Fiordland National Park, where you can experience a beautiful wilderness of mountains, ice and forests.
