Rent a Car!

by ATXtraveler

Sarah and I ventured out on our trip to enjoy Coromandel by renting a vehicle from Europcar in Auckland's CBD. It ended up saving us quite a bit of money not to rent from the airport location, because it was 10-15 NZD per day less than what we had quoted over the internet.We drove from Auckland to the Taupo Region, which took a little more time than flying into the Taupo airport, but in the long run was a lot less expensive and much more beautiful. Of course if time is money, then just take the flight! We ended up paying 135 NZD for 4 days rental, including unlimited mileage. Our vehicle was a Peugeot, and it ran nicely... with plenty of room for the two of us.If you would like to rent from the location in Auckland that we used for your trip, go to the website and use:Location Code: AKLC01
