A self-drive holiday in a late model rental car is one if the most relaxing ways to experience New Zealand's landscape and lifestyle. Many of our roads are very scenic and  traffic is low outside of the main cities when compared to international standards. Motorways take you in and out of the main cities but once on the open road, you will find plenty of opportunities to stop and take in the sights as you please. Our roads are generally of a high standard and well signposted but many are winding and climb through high passes and for this reason driving can take a little longer than you might expect at home.
