Taking a break while soaking in the beauty around us ☀️ Thanks to this car from #GORentals for taking us to places we could never imagine!
This is my second car rental with GO Rentals in the same month of March 2024. Loyal customer only comes as a testament to great service. This is my north coast of the south island trip, passed by at scenic St.Arnaud Lake Rotoiti on the way back to Christchurch. Superb side trip! Will do this again.
