Have you ever considered taking a road trip around New Zealand? A campervan is one of the best ways to explore NZ.
There are a variety of reasons to rent/buy a campervan in New Zealand and the epic scenery and stunning beauty of this country should be just one reason. You can relax under starry skies and park by a lake while you watch the sun set behind the mountains.
Driving around in a campervan means you can visit anywhere you want and are not limited by time or bus schedules. New Zealand offers two islands filled with unique activities and stunning landscape for you to check out. There are plenty of hidden gems tucked away in the valleys and hiding behind the mountains of New Zealand. The more remote the location, the more rewarding the experience. Guided tours and coach trips often drive right past the best spots as they cannot get access. In your own campervan you can chill and enjoy the scenery until you actually want to leave.
Is It Expensive?
A hard question to answer.. Well it depends on a number of factors like how many people are splitting the costs? Are you looking for a cheap camper or a fancy one with all of the trimmings? Is your plan to stay at DOC sites or park up in the middle of nowhere? When you share costs and weigh up the costs of accommodation and eating out, you have a reasonable price. An 8 bed dorm room in New Zealand's south island goes for $27 upwards all year round.
The Landscape
The pictures of campervans by the beach with the surf on the background and a bunch of happy people sitting around has been in my head for years. Campervans give you the freedom to chill out and have a cup of coffee or a glass of wine right by the beach. Your music can be playing and some food on the stove. Good times!
Travel With Friends
Living in such close quarters can be a blessing or a curse. When you and a friend chose to travel together in a campervan, there can be some great times ahead. But on the contrary, traveling with a partner can be amazing. There is something very intimate about living together while traveling around New Zealand.
Should I Rent or Buy A Campervan?
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.
