car rental agencies
 

We are traveling to NZ end of Feb thru mid Mar. we are planning on renting a car for 3-4 days of touring on the N island then dropping the car for the ferry to the S island where we would pick up a new car. We would stay on the S island for 10days and fly out of Christchurch to Auck and pick up another car to tour N of AUck our last few days. Given all of this can anyone suggest a good car rental agency? I've looked at Apex's website and am impressed but would like to compare experiences.<BR>Thanks ahead

NZ has all the major agencies - Hertz, Avis, Budget etc. If you are renting for so long you might be better placed to get a cheap rate if you book through one co instead of using several. That will also save you the one way drop of fee they might otherwise sting you for.

When you ask a question of this board will you please put the area (country) of your question on the heading so that the rest of us can not waste our time opening stuff that is of no concern to us

Grant thanks for the insights. This board has been very helpful.<BR>Bob, thanks for the warm welcome!
