Here are some important things you need to carry with you when you go on a long trip in New Zealand. Some of them are universal, applicable to all seasons, and the others depends on the season.

Personal documents and money

It is good to carry with you the car documents, your personal documents like your driving license, passport, and other form of ID. It is extremely important and you could show it when they ask you for example at the hotel, restaurant or any other institutions. Carrying documents will save you time and troubles. Do not carry large sums of money in your pocket. Bring enough but never too much. It is more convenient to keep your money in credit and debit cards, and you can easily withdraw it from the ATM.

Food and Beverage

On long trips is very important to have food and drinks. Sometimes journeys have unexpected development or last longer than anticipated. If you have enough food and drinks any unforeseen circumstances will not worry you.

Clothing

It is very important to have clothes for warm and cold regardless of the season. Although summer is warmer, the night temperatures can fall and is good to have warm clothes and shoes for that kind weather. The car that you drive probably has heating and air conditioning, but it will be hard to spend the whole trip there.

Mobile phones and devices

You have to charge your phone on full level before you go. Also take with you other devices that will keep you connected with family and friends. It is good to carry portable charger, which could help you to charge your phone directly from the car.

Tools and fuel

Try to fill your fuel tank to the top, before you go on a long trip. It’s good to have basic tools,  because a long trip could be unpredictable. You should have a spare tire and a first aid kit. Choose your car from Realistic Rental Cars – for the best advice and service.
