"Good service and friendly staff. Was extremely happy with the car we hired. Definitely recommend Dream Drives!!"
"Family of five, two weeks around the South Island! We rented the Mercedes V Shuttle and it was honestly the perfect choice. It was super comfy for the long drives, really spacious (plenty of room for everyone and luggage), and surprisingly economical on fuel which made a big difference over two weeks of exploring. Adam was who we dealt with and his communication was top notch from start to finish - quick replies, clear instructions, and just genuinely lovely to work with. The whole process felt easy and stress-free (unlike the larger rental companies) and the vehicle was exactly what we needed for a family road trip. Highly recommend Dream Drives and we'd absolutely 100% book with them again!"
"We had an amazing adventure to Christchurch. The vehicle was beautifully presented and wonderful to drive. The communication was fast and easy. The pick up and drop off went extremely easily. We had a wonderful time and experience and are especially thankful for the added value of having carseats available."
"Dream Drives was an absolute pleasure to rent from. All the way from the booking process to gaining knowledge about the car and the roads, Adam was absolutely helpful in my whole process of renting to returning. Would definitely recommend these guys as they have amazing cars and an even better attitude towards their customers. A+++"
"Amazing experience renting from Adam and Grace at Dream Drives!!! I rented the Range Rover Sport, which was immaculately maintained and "drove like a dream." Throughout the rental process, the team at DD were incredibly responsive, accommodating, and helpful. Pickup and drop off were seamless, taking mere minutes. Rental rates were extremely reasonable, especially given the quality of the cars and the attentive service. There is NO reason not to go with Dream Drives!! Would easily recommend over any other NZ rental company."
