With several international and domestic flights every day, it serves as a significant hub for travellers. The airport amenities include restaurants, shopping outlets, ATMs, and free Wi-Fi.

Renting a Car at Dunedin Airport

There are several car hire companies present at the airport. These include well-known brands such as:

  • Avis

  • Europcar
  • Hertz

You can find the rental car desks in the main terminal building. Remember to book your car in advance to ensure availability and get the best deal.

Car Class Recommendations

We recommend booking a small to intermediate car if you are planning to stay within Dunedin and its city boundaries. However, if you plan on exploring the wider Otago region, a vehicle with a bit more power could be more suitable. This is because the hilly terrain and distance between attractions can be challenging for smaller, less-powerful cars.

Getting from the Airport to Your Destination

The drive from Dunedin International Airport to the city centre takes about 30 minutes. Dunedin is known for its charming historic architecture as well as its stunning natural surroundings. There are a number of routes you can take to explore these attractions, with the freedom and convenience a hire car can offer.

Things to Know: New Zealand vs UK

Driving

Just like in the UK, New Zealanders drive on the left-hand side of the road. However, you might find some rules differ, so take time to familiarise yourself with the local road laws. The New Zealand Transport Agency provides a useful guide.

Currency

New Zealand's currency is the New Zealand Dollar (NZD). Although some businesses accept cards, it's always handy to have some local cash for small transactions at local markets or for tipping.

Fuel Stations and Convenience Stores

There are several petrol stations close to the airport, making it easy to fill up your hire car either at the start or end of your journey. Additionally, convenience stores attached to these stations provide snacks and supplies for your trip.

Exploring the Otago Region

With mountains, golden beaches, and unique wildlife, the Otago region is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. Dunedin's city centre has a lot to offer too, from the impressive University of Otago to the historic Dunedin Railway Station. Make the most of your hiring car to explore this fascinating region.
