The man said affordable rental cars in Christchurch were easy
The man in the hotel said that affordable rental cars in Christchurch were no problem. And he was right. I just stepped out of our hotel, near the Cathedral Square, in the center of the city, and wandered around looking for rental companies. There were plenty of them close by. The backpacker market was well catered for, it seemed to me. And so were drivers like us who needed something with some reliabilty. And it was a sunny day in the Garden City. My wife and I had a hire car organized by lunch time and we drove off to Dunedin soon after that. Petrol is quite expensive in New Zealand, but we will travel slowly and hopefully won’t burn up too much gas on our tour of the South Island.
