We do have a general minimum booking duration of 3 days. However, during peak season between 1 December and 28 February the minimum booking period is 14 Days. Shorter booking requests might be considered if they fall between other longer existing bookings.
All rates are in New Zealand Dollar.
The below quotation is database generated and includes long term hire discounts of 5% for bookings exceeding 20 days, 10% for bookings exceeding 40 days and 20% for bookings exceeding 90 days.
All our rentals include comprehensive insurance with your daily hire. This covers accidental damage to the campervan or rental car and public liability.
This includes overhead and underbody damage (the most common accidents), single-vehicle accidents (e.g. you reverse into a bollard at a campsite), towing and recovery of your motorhome or rental car , fire or vandalism.
If the motorhome or rental car or any of its equipment is damaged, you are required to contribute to the cost of replacement or repair up to the excess amount.
The excess amount for:
If there’s more than one incident in which the motorhome or rental car is damaged, a separate liability applies for each incident.
You are required to take all reasonable steps to ensure the motorhome or rental car is not damaged. We recommend you check out our Rental Terms and Conditions for any exclusions.
Our Basic insurance option is included with your rental. It covers you for accidental damage to the motorhome or rental car as well as damage to someone else’s vehicle or property—as long as you’re not being negligent or irresponsible.
The included Basic liability option has a NZ$7500 excess (or deductible) for campervans and motorhomes and NZ$750 for rentals cars, but we also offer a liability reduction option for added peace of mind.
Our Premium Insurance Option for $30 a day reduces your maximum liability per incident to $1000 for campervans and motorhomes. We do not offer a liability reduction for rental cars.
If you wish to reduce your excess further, you can choose a travel insurance or a vehicle excess reduction insurance that will often offer a reduction to nil.
Upon pickup of the vehicle you will be required to pay a security bond based on the excess. For bookings shorter than 30 days we are able to pre-authorise your credit card, however for bookings longer than 30 days we are unable to pre-authorise and therefore require the bond to be paid via credit card or cash.
When booking a campervan or rental car you can choose to pay in full or pay a 30% Deposit with the balance due 30 days prior to your booking. We will send you a payment reminder. If the balance has not been received 30 days prior to the booking, your booking will automatically be cancelled and no refund given.
If cancelled 31 days prior to pick up | Refund of 70% of total reservation cost. |
If cancelled within 30 days of pick-up | No refund is available. |
Early Return | No refund for any unused portion of the rental is available |
We understand that time is often limited and you want to see as much as possible. While our rates reflect Pick up and Drop Off in Auckland, we do accomodate One Way Hires to Wellington, Nelson and Christchurch on a case by case basis. Please contact us with your desired travel dates and we will provide you with a quote for a One Way Hire.
Absolutely. All of our campers are certified to be self contained.
There is no limit on how many days you can freedom camp. As the campervans charge their battery during the day, you will have power permanently. You will need to empty the grey water and toilet every couple of days and top up the fresh water as well as the gas.
New Zealand has public dumping stations all over the country. These are free and open 24/7. The free Campermate App shows you the locations of dumping stations. Dumping Stations usually have fresh water as well, but note that most of the time this is not suitable for drinking and should only be used for washing.
That absolutely depends on the number of people travelling with you and your habits. With 4 people showering and doing the dishes twice a day, and using the toilet, the water and toilet lasts about 2 days. With 2 people and only mini showers you might be able to stretch the water to 4 days.
The gas lasts usually for at least a week if you are heating a lot, much longer if you don’t use much heating.
The free Campermate App has a range of Freedom Camping Sites. You can also search on Google Maps by zooming in on the area that you are looking and type in “freedom camping”. This will often bring up additional freedom camping spots.
All of our campervans come equipped with a power lead that let’s you plug in at a campsite.
While freedom camping you can use all of the appliances, USB ports and any 12v equipment. The 240v power points only work when connected to power at a campsite.
All of our campervans have an outdoor table and camping chairs.
Yes. The security bond depends on your chosen insurance package and the respective excess. If you have the basic insurance, your excess is $7500, if you have the premium insurance, then the excess is $1000.
Unfortunately pre-authorisation only lasts for 30 days, so for trip less than 30 days, we pre-authorise your credit card and only charge the bond if you have an accident or damage. For trips longer than 30 days we do require the bond to be paid in cash or credit card and this will be refunded at the end of your trip.

We have an arrangement with a local shuttle service to transport our guests to and from the airport for $110 each way, payable directly to the shuttle. Hotel transfers can be quoted on request. We are happy to arrange the transport for you.
Yes, you will have roadside assistance through AA.
If the Campervan breaks down, or has a mechanical problem that cannot be mobilised at scene, the AA will tow the campervan to the nearest place of safety or repair, where arrangements for its repair can be made or where it can be safely stored.

Anyone using New Zealand’s roads contributes towards their upkeep. Most road users pay levies when they buy fuel. Others, such as drivers of light diesel vehicles and heavy vehicles like trucks, pay through road user charges (RUC). Road User Charges will be calculated based on the kilometers that you have travelled. During the handover we take note of the odometer at the start of your trip and then calculate the distance travelled when you return the campervan. Road User Charges are charged at $9/100km travelled and can be paid in cash or via credit card at the end of your trip.
