Our choice of car, and car rental company, for our first New Zealand road trip spanning 2,600km in 15 days. 🔑 the collection process was simple even though it was after hours collection, we made the call via the free airport phone and got to the shuttle within minutes, and was ferried to the parking lot by a friendly driver. Keys handed to us after he verified my driving license and we found the car in the lot easily based on his instructions. 📱given that we don’t drive in our home country, we had issues connecting to Apple Carplay, and even bought a cable to try to improve the process but to no avail, which we returned to Omega office the next day to get it sorted. However, their first response was that there’s no guarantee of that in the booking and after failing to get it fixed, we had to make do with using our phone for navigation - slight bummer but luckily the phone is able to sit in the holder easily. We did also ask for a change of car to one that has a working Apple Carplay and they rejected it (though understandable since we had insurance coverage and might be troublesome to do), but their reason was that it was fully booked out which is definitely a lie, seeing that there’s the same amount of cars there on the day of collection and return. I did book this newer Yaris but smaller variant with expectations of using Apple Carplay though, so definitely knocking a point off there. 🚗 that said, the car drove well throughout the trip without any issues, it did get slightly wobbly and unstable when faced with high winds at high speeds - nothing a slower drive couldn’t manage 💵 it costed slightly under $800 with full excess and the late collection fee (which i thought was rather atrocious at $46 to collect past office hours), but all things considered was rather affordable at no more than $60 a day. 🛫 the return process was swift and we reached the airport within 20 minutes of arriving at the office Given that there’s a lot of options for car rentals out there, and that we often get upgraded to a better car with better functionalities, i would probably sit this out during our next trip.
Fuss free and smooth rental process from Omega Rentals. Returning the car was a breeze as well. Enjoyed really great rental rates from them, with full insurance coverage. We got a 2017 Toyota rav 4 with no major issues. Special shoutout to Kelvin for his humor and getting everything done so efficiently.
We rented two RAVs from Omega Rental Cars. Professional service, smooth and easy pick-up and drop-off, with no hidden costs. The process was hassle-free, and the cars were in great condition. Highly recommend
We rented a Premium Family SUV from Omega Christchurch and had an excellent experience. The booking and pickup were smooth, the staff were helpful and friendly, and the car was clean, reliable, and perfect for our South Island road trip with a toddler. Great value, spacious vehicle, and very easy drop-off. Highly recommend Omega to anyone visiting New Zealand!
I had a good experience overall with this car rental company. The booking process was easy, the car was clean and in great condition, and everything went smoothly during my rental. The only downside was at the end of my trip when I was asked to refill the tank even though it was already full. To resolve it, I had to drive to a petrol station and add about 3 extra liters, which felt unnecessary. Other than that, everything was great and I’d happily rent from them again.
