Car Hire in Auckland

We are more than a comparison site — our team deal with a number of major rental companies to bring you cheap prices across a range of car groups (including people carriers, estates and economy vehicles). Some of the companies we negotiate with in Auckland include international brands like Hertz and Thrifty, as well as national suppliers such as Ezi Car Rental and GO Rentals. In one simple search, we help you compare prices, while the handy filters let you narrow down the listings based on your needs and preferences. Finding your perfect hire car has never been easier.

Some rental companies (such as Thrifty, Ezi Car Rental and Ace Rental Cars) have special offers on their cars — so you get an ‘extra’, like additional drivers or a guaranteed make and model included in the price. We tell you exactly what you get for your money upfront, so there are no nasty surprises when you get to the pick-up counter. Don’t forget to look at the ratings and reviews left by previous customers next to each listing, so you get honest, impartial advice before you commit to a booking.

Piha Beach: Located only 40 kilometres from Auckland is Piha beach — one of New Zealand’s most famous surf spots. Piha is a black-sand beach that is known to be moody, misty and windswept. Popular with seasoned surfers, this beach is uncrowded and is great for swimming in the summer months. If you don’t want to sit on the beach, take the Kitekite track up to a dramatic waterfall.

Hobbiton Movie Set: Take a dive to Middle Earth. Only a two-hour drive away is the Shire, home of the Hobbits. The Hobbiton Movie Set was used in Peter Jackson’s adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. On your visit, you can take a look at Bag End (the home of Frodo and Bilbo Baggins) and visit the likes of the Green Dragon Inn and The Mill.

Ambury Farm: Head over to Ambury Farm in Ambury Regional Park for a great family day out. Spend the day at this working farm and help feed the lambs. You can also get up close to pigs, cows, peacocks and chickens (or chooks as they are known in New Zealand).
