Campervan Around New Zealand

By Adam Finan


Have you ever considered taking a road trip around New Zealand? A campervan is one of the best ways to explore NZ.

The Freedom Of The Road

Having a vehicle means you can go wherever you want at your own leisure. There is no time-frame on available days to travel or a set time to get up out of your bed. Life is yours to control and you should take advantage of this and explore all of the amazing places the New Zealand has to offer. Both the north and south islands have adrenaline pumping activities to get your heart racing and jaw dropping scenery around every corner. The further off the beaten track you get the more beautiful the location. In your own 4x4 campervan you can even explore more places than most.

Cost Effective

This is a tricky one because camper-vanning is often seen as a very expensive option for travel. If you weigh up the options and consider the money saved on accommodation and the ability to cook for yourself, you have a cheaper than backpacking scenario. The price of a bed in a 12 bed dorm in New Zealand is upwards of $28 per night. It might even work out cheaper to get a campervan and split costs with your friends. Doing this you don't need have accommodation costs, and the kitchen sink is right behind you.

The Landscape

Campervans create a convenience to be able to stop anywhere and relax, have a cup of tea or coffee while by the beach (at no extra cost), and keep food cool for your trip. Everything you own is with you at all times. Your laptop, camera, kindle, bed.. All in one place, on the road, exploring a fantastic country in comfort.

Friendship and Romance On The Road

When you and a friend chose to travel together in a campervan, you will have the best time of your lives (well, most of the time!). There wil be no more missed sunsets along the West Coast of New Zealand, and plenty of nights cuddled up under the stars in your cosy camper. There is something very intimate about living in your camper for a few weeks while traveling around.

Money

It all depends on the length of your stay. If you are only coming to New Zealand for one week, then renting a campervan is an ideal option, but if you are here on a three month holiday then having a campervan will make your experience far more enjoyable.
