What do you need to rent a car in Nelson?
Most rental companies will need these two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your wheels.
Can I drive in Nelson with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, your current U.S. License is enough for you to legally drive in Nelson. But if you’re the kind of traveler who likes to be on the safe side, get an International Driving Permit. Apply for it before you leave home.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Nelson?
You can, and the awesome news is providers often offer lower rates the longer you rent. Scroll through our long-term car rental deals in Nelson and cruise off with an impressive bargain.
Where can I find a Nelson car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking for a rental in Nelson, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be surcharges if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any unpleasant surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
