Best car rental prices in Queenstown
Bookingauto (Queenstown) strives to make your car rental experience as simple and convenient as possible. This also applies to the location of rental points. Our clients can pick up cars in the most popular places, whether it be the city centre, airport, or main railway station. The list of our pick-up locations is extensive, meaning that visitors who book cars with us in Queenstown can always collect them from the most suitable place.
What we can offer:
By contacting Bookingauto.com, customers can be sure that there is the right type of car waiting for them. For example, if one person or a small group of guests arrives in Queenstown, it makes sense for them to rent a Convertible Jaguar F-Type from €78 per day. This presentable and comfortable car is offered for rent by sixt. When it comes to a family or a large company, the best choice may be a Minivan Opel Zafira at a rate of €58 per day. Your trip will be pleasant and safe in this roomy car. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, budget is ready to offer a Business-class model - Audi A6. A budget transport option for a journey would be a Opel Astra car, compact but quite convenient, the rental of which would cost about €17 per day.
How to minimize costs:
In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

How the cost changes in Queenstown
During the high season in summer, car rental in Queenstown costs 20-30% more than at other times. For example, renting the Audi A4 popular in Queenstown costs €42 per day in July. In autumn, you’d pay about €8 for the same model.
During the holidays, the demand for car rental is very high, which is reflected in both the price and the choice of available cars. Therefore, you should book in advance if possible.
In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Jaguar F-Type will cost €78 per day for the duration of the vacation period.
Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Queenstown is the Opel Astra. The rental price for such a car starts from €17 per day from sixt.
For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a Audi A6 will cost about €62 per day.
With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a Toyota Rav-4 at this time can be rented for just €42 per day.
It will also be easier to find unusual and exclusive car models. For example, by renting a BMW 8-series, you will experience real driving pleasure and enjoy a luxurious visit that will remain in your memory forever.

Booking cancellation and change
On our website, you can cancel or change your booking in Queenstown under certain terms.
The booking can be cancelled with a full refund at least 24 hours in advance (in some cases, 48 hours may be needed).
If cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice (or 48 hours in some cases), the administration fee will be deducted from the online payment amount but the rest of the money will be returned to your bank account.
Each vendor has a different cancellation policy and administration fee for different cars. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read the cancellation policy before booking.
Note: you can only cancel or modify your order before the pick-up time!
These additional rules apply to all bookings:
If the online payment sum is less than the stated administration fee, there will be no refunds when cancelling your booking once the administration fee is applied.
If your booking is made less than 24 hours prior to the pick-up time (or 48 hours in some cases), a cancellation policy will be automatically applied to your booking.
Important information: All cancellations must be made in the “Manage My Booking” section and not directly through the car rental company itself.
Insurance coverage cancellation policy:
If you purchased an additional insurance product with your car rental, the policy will be automatically ended when the booking is cancelled. To check if you are eligible for a refund, see the cancellation policy set out in the terms of your insurance product.
When does the “No-show” rule apply?
The following situations constitute a "No-show":
● The customer didn’t inform of the cancellation before the pick-up time.
● The customer failed to pick up a car in Queenstown at the arranged time and date.
● The customer failed to provide the documentation required to pick up the car.
● The customer failed to provide a credit card in the main driver’s name with enough available funds on it.
In the event of any of the above, no refunds can be made.
The car hire company reserves the right to refuse a car to any customer who fails to provide all of the necessary documentation and a credit card with enough available funds for the car's security deposit. In such cases, the customer will not be entitled to a refund.

Answer: You can pick up a car in Queenstown and return it in another city, but you will have to pay extra for this. When booking, find the option "Return in another location" in the search form and indicate the city in which you will return the car. However, this option is not available for all cars. The system will return eligible options to you in the search results. The indicated rental price in this case already includes an additional fee for returning the car in another city. In some circumstances, the need to return a car in another city may arise after the lease has been issued, i.e. during the use of the vehicle. In this case, you need to call the rental company directly at the phone number indicated on the voucher to come to an agreement and discuss the terms of the surcharge.
