Renting a Jimny for our first trip through the South Island in NZ was the best decision we've ever made! The experience was amazing! The Jimny had everything we needed and it was so easy to open up and pack up. Grace and Adam were super easy and professional to communicate with. 10/10 would recommend! We are coming back and doing a Jimny hire again for sure! Thanks heaps guys!!

Rated 5.0 on Google
Can't recommend highly enough! Picked us up from the airport and dropped us off. They made everything easy. The Jimny is perfect for a couple to explore New Zealand. In its fun to drive and capable to get you anywhere with less worries than driving a car. For example, you have to ford 9 streams to get to Rob Roy Glacier Track, I was very comfortable doing that in a Jimny rather than a Prius. Its small which is a plus for fuel efficiency and on narrow lanes of some of the roads. We drove over 2000 miles during our two weeks in NZ and I'd pick a Jimny from Grace and Adam again when we hopefully come back!
Coole Jimny Vermietung in Christchurch.
Der Buchungsprozess war super einfach und transparent. Bei der Abholung stand der Jimny fertig da und es gab eine kleine Einführung.
Wir haben im Anschluss die 10 Tage sehr genossen. Besonders gefallen hat uns, wie einfach das Dachzelt zu bedienen war. Am Ende habe ich es in 2 Minuten alleine zusammengepackt- easy. Der Jimny fährt sich super. Genau das Richtige für die engen Strassen auf der Südinsel und ausreichend für die vielen Pässe, die wir überquert haben. Die Rückgabe war auch in 5 Minuten erledigt. Wir haben den Wagen nur schweren Herzens wieder zurückgegeben.
Alles in Allem: Wir würden wieder bei Jimny Renates mieten.
All I can say is we had a great experience with Jimny NZ. Collection and returning of the car was straight forward and super easy. Adam and Grace were prompt in their replies and helpful! The condition of the car was excellent and we had no problems driving all around south island.
Funny enough we got attached to the car after spending 12 days with it and got sad when it was time to return it. A jimny in Singapore costs $150k!! So getting a taste of it in NZ has been a dream come true!
Nevertheless, if you're travelling as a couple, I'd highly recommend renting out a jimny from Jimny NZ to explore south island!
