In Tonga, vehicles drive on the left side of the road. Main roads are generally well-maintained, particularly in urban areas. However, some rural roads and those leading to more remote locations may be narrower, more uneven, or less developed. Speed limits in Tonga are generally lower than they are in many other countries. Be mindful of pedestrians, as they may not always use designated crosswalks. Also, be aware that animals, such as pigs or chickens, are often seen roaming freely on or near the roads, especially in rural areas.

Because Tonga is such a remote location, you should expect to pay somewhat more than you are accustomed to for gas. It is also important to remember when driving that gas stations can be scarce, especially in more rural areas. For one liter of gas, you will generally pay about 1.88 T ($0.80), which translates to around T7.12 ($3.03) per gallon.

The lowest age you can be for car rental in Tonga may vary depending on the car rental company. Usually, most local rental outfits in Tonga ask the driver to be at least 21 years old.

Check with the car rental firm you plan to use in Tonga to confirm its age requirements and any additional conditions that may apply.
