We hired two cars from Omega Car Rentals in Queenstown and Auckland after reading numerous reviews and researching car rental companies in New Zealand. We liked their down to earth approach and prices... See more

My experience with Omega Car Rental was…
My experience with Omega Car Rental was excellent. I had rented out a Yaris for about a week. The car was in excellent condition. The signing up process was smooth and I faced no trouble while handing over the car. The front office staff were respectful and professional. The pricing was also very attractive. Overall I would highly recommend Omega car rentals to anyone looking for renting cars in Queenstown.
Highly Recommend
Great company, easy from booking to pick up and drop off again. Booked again for the following week in Nelson
Easy to book
Easy to book, awesome staff, helpful and friendly have been using these guys for a few years... HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Great little car.
The car we rented was clean and the staff at both Wellington and Auckland were friendly and efficient. We were driven to the airport at Auckland straight after our car was handed back. The only problem we had was with filling the car with petrol before returning it. We used the petrol station closest to Omega. They only had one petrol bowser and it didn’t like non New Zealand cards. On our third attempt it accepted my card using credit not debit. When I got to the airport I discovered that they had taken double the amount from my account. The correct amount was taken out later that day. Apparently they do that with foreign cards.
So use Omega for your car rental in New Zealand and if you use the petrol station near Omega in Auckland use the credit option and be aware that they will appear to take out double the amount they should.

I had to cancel my booking on the day i was meant to arrive, as my husband was ill and admitted to hospital. Despite booking a car with you four or five times a year, for the last 14 years, you still charged me 40% cancellation fee. I understand this is policy, but for a loyal repeat customer I feel this was a bit much.

Looking for a good car rental company in New Zealand?
Easy peasy process from end to end in car rental.
Good and reliable car.
I would highly recommend Omega Rental Cars
All around good service, price and car
Very grateful for being there as we struggled with traffic to get to our pickup time. Fortunately made it before office closed - but thanks for the call to remind to be there asap!
Car was exactly as described - price was much appreciated.
Drop off great too - and help with luggage. Will look forward to renos being completed at AKL International so the drop off will be nearer the terminal!
Happy Experiences …
Having used Omega on all my returns to home for the past 15 years. I have always had a easy & good experience with booking online to the shuttle bus drivers being very happy. The office staff & the cars, and when there is a problem, it is resolved & everyone happy. Cars are good. Overall good experience
Poor vehicle condition
I was expecting a better car as I paid for what you term 'Premium Elite'. Instead, I got a scratched all over car with excess of 100k's on the clock and constant rattles. This car should be retired if Omega is serious about its image!
Only positive was the price, although the additional insurance made it quite expensive. You get what you pay for, but in this case, got less than I paid for.
