Choose Avis for your Timaru Car Rental

Timaru is a major port city located 160 kilometres south of Christchurch and is where Avis Rent A Car began in New Zealand. The city is surrounded by hills that slope down to Caroline Bay and the undulating nature of the main streets is in stark contrast to the flat landscape of the Canterbury Plains to the north.

Timaru is also the birth place of many famous New Zealanders, including Richard Pearse, whose inventiveness and early attempts at manned flight rivalled the Wright brothers. His feats and a replica of his first aircraft are on display in the South Canterbury Museum.

Avis Timaru has two convenient rental locations; Timaru Airport & Timaru City, both offering a wide variety of late model rental cars to suit any travel needs, from small economical compact rental cars to full size sedans and large 4WD SUV's, so whatever your plans we have the right rental vehicle for you.

For peace of mind motoring all Avis New Zealand car rentals come with the following complimentary items:

• Free 24 Hour Avis Cares Roadside Assistance
• Free Road Maps
• Unlimited Kilometres

Optional extras such as child safety seats, snow racks and chains, and portable Where2 GPS Navigation units are also available.
