Frequently Asked Questions
Snap Rentals Wellington Airport is located at 20 Kingsford Smith Street, Rongotai, Wellington 6022.
Our depot is located about a 4 minute drive in our Free Airport shuttle from the Wellington Airport terminal.
Same as any in other major city - the cost of car rental in Wellington varies depending on factors such as the type of car, rental duration and booking time. Special events (e.g. Beervana, big sports games etc) or holiday seasons typically push prices up. Car rental operators that are located in the airport terminal itself typically have to pass on some of the expensive rents they pay to be there - so you'll find that usually hiring through an off-site operator like Snap will be cheaper.
Wellington is a hilly city! Many opt for Snap's SUV range, however any of our Mid-size options are just as capable of the inner-city hill climbing as all of them boast fairly sporty engines + they are a bit easier to park & navigate some of the tighter streets.
It typically takes about 15 minutes - however this very much depends on traffic! It is the capital city after all!
As you would have seen on the flight in (if you weren't being blown around too much!), Wellington is surrounded by stunning landscapes that look even better from the road then they do from the air! The most popular destination from Wellington is a bit of a drive away, but is a must do for hikers - the Tongariro Crossing - a hike through volcanic mountains at the heart of the North Island. This destination is around 4 hours drive away from Wellington. Closer to the city, many renters opt to visit Martinborough (1.5hrs drive), a town famous for its pinot noir & boutique wineries or the stunning beaches of the Kapiti Coast (1hrs drive)
