CURRENCY CONVERSION
The estimated total is displayed in U.S. Dollars. The actual rate you pay will be calculated by converting the U.S. Dollar (USD) amount into the local currency using a published exchange rate established by the local rental company. When converted, the amount will best represent the original quote. However, due to currency fluctuation variances may be unavoidable. Your credit or debit card company may convert the amount back into USD at a lower rate, and may apply additional conversion fees and surcharges. Because conversion rates may differ, the final total USD charge to your credit or debit card may be higher than the USD total rate estimated on this website.

INTERISLAND RENTALS
When traveling with Europcar, renters will not be permitted to take their vehicles between islands on the Interislander Ferry. In order to make a multi-island reservation, please place one booking (i.e. Auckland to Christchurch) and advise Europcar of the intent to cross over the day and time. We will then facilitate the second leg of the journey and arrange for a vehicle to be waiting on arrival once the ferry crossing has completed and you arrive as a foot passenger. When returning the vehicle to the Picton or Wellington terminal, it must have a full tank of petrol.
NOTE: Europcar vehicles are not permitted to travel on the ferry between the north and south islands in New Zealand.
There are two ferry companies that operate between the north and south islands - the Interisland ferry and Bluebridge ferry. The Interisland ferry departs (and arrives) from the main terminals on both the north and south islands. The Picton and Wellington Europcar offices are located in both ferry terminals. Traveling on the Bluebridge ferry, the Picton terminal is not located in the town center. Customers will need to make their own way to the Europcar office located at the Interislander Ferry Terminal to collect their vehicle. Bluebridge offers a shuttle service at the clients own expense which they have to arrange themselves or alternatively, customers will need to organize a taxi.
NOTE: When making inter-island bookings on behalf of other parties, it would be greatly appreciated if you could please inform them of the procedure before they collect their first vehicle. Making this information available to customers via confirmation vouchers, emails, brochures, and websites would also be of assistance.
