1. Reasons for Choosing Budget Car Rental
A. Seamless travel between the North and South Islands with no drop-off requirement
When traveling in New Zealand, many tourists wish to explore both the North and South Islands. To do this without returning the rental car, Budget Car Rental and APEX are the only options available. However, due to unfavorable reviews of APEX, we opted for Budget Car Rental.
B. Convenient pick-up at Auckland International Airport
For the convenience of traveling with luggage, especially when accompanied by children, picking up the rental car directly at Auckland International Airport was a priority. Budget Car Rental provides excellent service within the airport premises.
C. Avoiding third-party platforms and travel cafes for reservations
Having encountered difficulties with other car rental reservation platforms and intermediaries in the past, we preferred to book directly through Budget Car Rental's official website to ensure smooth and reliable service.
2. Finding Discounts with Budget Car Rental
To save on travel expenses, we researched various discount options provided by Budget Car Rental.
- Website promotions: Take advantage of promotional offers available on the official Budget Car Rental website to enjoy additional discounts.
- Pay Now option: By making a reservation and payment simultaneously, you can receive up to a 25% discount. Note that there might be some cancellation fees, and one-way trips may not be eligible for the discount.
- Coupon websites: Explore various coupon websites that offer exclusive discounts and deals for Budget Car Rental. (Note: Coupon availability may vary depending on your travel dates.)

3. Selecting the Vehicle
Consider the number of passengers, luggage, and the season when choosing a rental car. If you are traveling during winter, it is recommended to select a vehicle with 4WD capability and the option for winter tires. Visit the Budget Car Rental website to explore their fleet and find the vehicle that suits your needs.
