Flexible, on-demand car rental

What is Hostel Hoppers?
Hostel Hoppers is the cheapest and easiest way to travel around Australia and New Zealand. Get huge savings by grabbing a Hostel Hoppers season pass - pre-paid use of any Hostel Hoppers vehicle, whenever you want, wherever you want!
How does it Work?
Hostel Hoppers is a pre-paid season pass - 90 days of car hire that you can use at any time over the course of 12 months. Just call us to reserve a Hostel Hoppers car, 4WD SUV or spacious tourer at any of our convenient rental locations - anytime you want.
Your season pass covers your daily rental rate (less than $8 per day!). You'll never have to worry about prices fluctuating during the year, even during peak season!
What's included?
At Hostel Hoppers, we keep our fees minimal and as straight forward as possible. A season pass will cover your daily rental rate and toll fees, and includes a generous 250km per day allowance. All you pay when you collect a vehicle is damage cover and one-way fee if you choose to drop off in a different location. Simple.

We were so happy with our Hostel Hoppers experience & after chatting with other travelers we realized we got to visit a lot more places that the buses just won’t go, Hostel Hoppers is so flexible in NZ

What a great idea! My trip in Australia ended sooner than I planned and I was easily able to transfer my credit to a friend - thanks for making my experience so easy and enjoyable

I was worried to return my car as I accidentally scraped it on the side but they were fine with it & didn’t charge me! I was so relieved that they were so nice about it, thanks Hostel Hoppers!

We took a tourer and it's so cool having a kitchen in the van. They gave us a free table and chairs too

We bought a car when we arrived in New Zealand. It broke down and was going to cost another $3000 to repair. We ended up saving money by hiring with Hostel Hoppers instead. We should have done it from the start - if you break down they give you another car!
