Gisborne Car Hire

Rent Cars in Gisborne

The first city in the world to see the sun rise each day, Gisborne is seen by many as a magical place. With a small population of about 30,000 people, and surrounded by amazing lakes, rivers, forests and beaches, Gisborne is a highly sought after location for those wishing to escape city life. Despite being the first place of European ships landing in New Zealand in the 18th century, Gisborne has managed to retain its rural way of life and natural beauty. The perfect place to take your rental car and go on a scenic drive, Gisborne is a must see for lovers of nature and those chasing the laid back way of life. Auto Europe offers several pick up locations and a large fleet selection, so finding a car rental in Gisborne is both easy and economical.

Touring Gisborne with a Car Rental

Relatively isolated from the rest of the world, there really is no better way of getting around Gisborne and the surrounding areas than in your hire car. Head to the pristine beaches for a swim or surf, go on a spot of fishing, or even just take your rental car and follow the river to see where it takes you.

Some of the popular things to see in Gisborne are the famous Tairawhiti Museum, full of local history, and the Eastwoodhill Arboretum home to New Zealand’s largest collection of exotic plants. Heading out on boat for a dive on the reefs is also a favourite, as well as the local markets full of unique local fruits and produce. Another great option is to collect your rental car and head out to the many farms in the area to see first hand where the produce comes from, then perhaps visit the local wineries and pick up a bottle of wine to have with your meal at one of the restaurants serving up the local cuisine. For those after a longer day trip, pick up your hire car and head off early to visit Rotorua, famous for it’s steaming geothermal geysers and bubbling mud pools.
