vehicles we offer and if you click on the vehicle
images you will be able to see more detail including virtual
tours (requires Apple Quicktime software

Motor Homes: If you choose this
option, try to rent the largest you can afford. After all, you
will be staying in one for up to a month and the more room the
better. With all our motor homes, we include a nights hotel on
arrival near to the collection point. Our advice is that after
travelling up to 24 hours, the idea of jumping into a large unfamiliar
vehicle without a nights rest is hardly a good idea. It allows
you to unwind, before hitting the road. We can also reserve more
than one night of course if you wish to experience Auckland or
Christchurch before touring.

At present we are offering two alternative Motor Home Companies: UNITED CAMPERVANS and ALPHA for your consideration

United Camper vans: This is a company that has been operating camper rental for many years.The company promises that all its hired campers will always be less than three years old. The company wisely offers an all inclusive rate which means there are no or very few “add on’s“ to the weekly rentals. In addition, there are a number of other extras included into this inclusive rate (see price chart below)
However, to be competitive, we also show the standard rates which do offer a risk with regard to Insurance in the case of any damage – there are insurance offers that can bring the excess in case of damage down to zero - but costs add up to 32 NZ dollars (£12 per day)
All our first week rentals INCLUDE an overnight hotel (*) stop at Auckland or Christchurch for either the first night’s arrival or final night before departure.

Alpha Campervan Rentals: The Alpha range of campers offer around 20% discount to those offered by its sister company United Campers. Operating from the same pickup/return sites the price difference is due to Alpha vehicles being 3- 5 years old. They have been refurbished from the United Fleet. The only difference really is the models are older and may lack the latest mechanical data of the United vehicles which are from one to three years old.
There are four models – as shown below
