How do I find the best car hire deals in Lyttelton with Expedia?
Check reviews and ratings, choose your preferred car class and compare prices from top providers. Expedia makes it a cinch to track down the best deal on your hired wheels. Combine your Lyttelton car hire with hotel or flight bookings and cruise off with even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Lyttelton?
The minimum age is 21. But there are a few age-related restrictions you should keep in mind before reserving your Lyttelton wheels. If you're a young driver, most hire outlets will charge an extra daily fee and limit the sorts of vehicles you can hire. The surcharge amount, and which ages it applies to, differs between companies. It's a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to hire a car in Lyttelton?
Generally, all you'll need is a driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up your car. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance plan. These requirements often differ between rental suppliers, so it's a good idea to check before you book.

Where can I find a Lyttelton hire car if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a little research. Managed to find a Lyttelton outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific! Just bear in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
