Our fifth stop on our road trip from Auckland to Queenstown. Such a great car and it made sightseeing so easy!˝
We are on a 10-week trip through New Zealand. We picked up our car in Queenstown and after the first 10 kilometres we already had stone damage to the windscreen. The team in Queenstown helped us in a very uncomplicated way, provided us with a replacement car and repaired the windscreen. A few days later, we were in Wanaka and climbed Roys Peak - along with many others - in fantastic conditions. The feeling of being welcome has never left us since we picked up the car from GO Rentals. We feel wonderful and enjoy every day in this marvellous country!˝
Exploring NZ was made easy thanks to the amazing staff and vehicles available at GO Rentals! We absolutely loved our Mitsubishi Pajero and the places it took us!˝
Embarking on our three-week honeymoon journey from the Netherlands, we began in Auckland and eventually made our way to the breathtaking Queenstown. It was at Deer Park Heights where we captured this incredible photo, surrounded by stunning views that made our adventure unforgettable.˝
