Customer experience

Good and reliable company for renting a car abroad

Easy website, easy phone contact when I had questions. Everything well-organized. Friendly staff. Have rented a car through this company several times and have always been very satisfied.

Very cheap, good car, somewhat near the airport...

We were visiting friends in Wellington, New Zealand and used 121, who arranged a rental voucher for 'Ace Rentals', a local firm. We got a very reasonable 2006 Nissan with about 80'000 miles on the clock which I am told is good for New Zealand. The only problem was the location, a good 15 minute drive from the airport, but there was a free shuttle so for the money we could not really complain. The car was well maintained and clean, and the staff very nice. I would definitely not call this 'Airport' rental though.

great customer service

Picked us up at the airport and returned us as well. Car didn't have much get up an go but very economical. The owner helped us witha problem that we had with another car rental company on the north island.

Al's Australia trip

The only thing I didn't like was:- The original website offered excess cover insurance at 50% off. What it did not say was that this insurance was for use in Europe only and I had to pay Questor an additional sum to get cover for Australia...Make the web pages more honest !!! Otherwise the booking, the car, the pick up and the drop off was absolutely brilliant!!!!!

keep the cost down

Easy to use site. Only drawback is that you don't know who you are booking with until you have committed. You can always cancel, though if it doesn't suit. For instance, I wasn't aware that the firm selected was off airport until I received the confirmation. Didn't bother me, and the shuttle service was excellent.

Booking was smooth, car worked fine, price OK

I picked this car up from National in Melbourne, drove to Philip Island and Dandenongs and back, on a few dirt roads too, the car (a Holden) went well, OK on fuel, it was cheapest deal I could find, and the site gave me a few options from different companies, with details of the cars and the extras, what's not included and so on. It all went smoothly. The staff were a bit busy and abrupt but no probs when I brought it back.

Serving New Zealand's most northern city, Whangarei Airport is a modern airport that operates domestic flights to places all over the country. The airport sits on a peninsula on Whangarei Harbour, just over seven kilometres from Whangarei city centre. Getting to the city from the airport is best done with car hire in Whangarei Airport.

Whangarei Airport facilities

The airport offers car parking close to the terminal building as well as a drop-off area right in front of the Departures entrance. Inside the single-terminal airport, passengers will find a Departures lounge and a cafeteria. Car rental in Whangarei Airport is on offer through well-known car hire agents.

Whangarei Airport excursions

Onerahi Road joins the airport to the city centre, making transfer with car hire in Whangarei Airport a hassle-free way to arrive in Whangarei. Many travellers come here to hike through the nearby forests or swim at the local beaches in the summer. Mount Parihaka and Whangarei Falls are the most scenic sights close by, while Zion Wildlife Gardens is a favourite with families.

Best time to visit

Whangarei is New Zealand's warmest city, with an average annual temperature of 15°C and an even amount of rainfall across the year. This makes it possible to visit at any time of the year, although most European tourists prefer to come in the hot summer months of January, February and March, when the temperature can sometimes rise to 30°C.

Car rental in Whangarei Airport

The roads in and surrounding the city are in great condition, although there is a great public transport system that makes it easy to get around populated areas. However, car hire in Whangarei Airport is required for getting out of the city and into its spectacular, remote surroundings. There are great deals to choose from so it is recommended to compare car hire beforehand on the internet.

Is CompareCarHire.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
