Hitch Car Rentals operate out of three cities across New Zealand, which is perfect if you are arriving in New Zealand for the first time, as you can fly in to Auckland, Christchurch and Queenstown and easily pick up a Hitch Car Rental car from any of these locations. Their friendly and knowledgeable staff will give you some local tips on where to go and what to do, and send you happily on your way.

This month we look at arriving into Queenstown, an amazing city, with such a wealth of fabulous things to see and do, and you could easily enjoy a couple of weeks there without running low on ideas. New Zealand’s famous ‘adventure capital’ certainly deserves its reputation as one of the most scenic and exciting destinations in the country. It is a thriving, vibrant city that really packs a punch in terms of nightlife and entertainment.

The city is located on the shores of the vast, glassy Lake Wakitipu, under The Remarkables mountains, with some of the world’s most spectacular landscapes virtually on your doorstep. To do this magnificent and diverse scenery justice, you can hire your rental car from the airport in Queenstown and motor into the city centre in ten minutes.

Hitch Car Rentals take the time on their website to guide you on your way around their three locations, and Queenstown is definitely one of the most popular destinations. Here they offer you their range of budget car rental options and once you have a set of wheels, it is easy to make a list of low cost things to do.

You can always just park up near the lake on one of the gorgeous lakeside beaches, where you can swim, kayak, paddleboard, take a boat trip or just relax and feast your eyes on the cinematic beauty of the mountain framed cobalt waters.

Similarly, with Arrowtown, an enchanting, historic gold-mining village and only around 25 minutes by car from the city. Its unique combination of history, picturesque buildings, craft shops, eateries, museums and nearby nature walks in stunning scenery make it a delightful and low cost family day trip.

Then, of course there is the bungy jump on the Kawerau River, and slightly further afield is fabulous Wanaka, which we can look at next article, so for more information on quality car rentals, renting a car in New Zealand and car rentals Auckland please go to https://www.hitchcarrentals.co.nz .
