A late reply: Go south to north
This is a late post, but other members might look in on it to get the same information. Go south to north if you are renting a car. Youi'll get a much better deal that way. More travellers choose the other direction and as a result rental cars pile up in Wellington and Christchurch and it costs big time to freight them home to Auckland. You'll often get a car for free fior a few days. I'm a rental car operatorand I recently gave away a car for two weeks just to get it home. Most other companies are the same. Shop around.
