Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to stay in an RV park?

How much does it cost to stay in a caravan park?

How long should I plan for a motorhome vacation to the South Island?

Is it better to rent a motorhome in Queenstown or in Christchurch?

Does my campervan rental come with unlimited miles?

Can I rent an RV in New Zealand if I’m under 21?

How much does it cost to stay in an RV park?

New Zealand has plenty of options for camping available. These range from privately owned RV parks to DOC (Department of Conservation) campsites.

A stay at an RV park will usually cost between $30-$50 (NZD) per night, depending on the area. A stay at a DOC campsite can range from $5-$15 per person per night.

DOC campsites can be a little more basic. However, many do have amenities available. These include toilets, showers, trash bins, and communal kitchen facilities in some cases.

How much does it cost to stay in a caravan park?

A night at a holiday park or campsite around Queenstown will range from $15 to $25 (NZD) for a DOC (Department of Conservation) campsite and around $20–$50 for a night at a caravan park.

Some popular caravan parks near Queenstown include Queenstown Lakeview Holiday Park, Queenstown Holiday Park Creeksyde and Arrowtown Holiday Park.

How long should I plan for a motorhome vacation to the South Island?

A good idea is to plan for a minimum of 7 days. However, even a 2- or 3-week road trip around the South Island will easily be filled.

Popular attractions include Mount Cook, UNESCO-designated Fiordland National Park with Milford Sound, Franz Josef Glacier and Fox Glacier, and the adventure capital of Queenstown.

Is it better to rent a motorhome in Queenstown or in Christchurch?

More campervan rental companies are in Christchurch. Additionally, some companies, although they offer Queenstown vehicle pickups/drop-offs, don’t have a Queenstown branch and will deliver the vehicle to you. This usually increases the cost of your rental.

Does my campervan rental come with unlimited miles?

Yes, generally unlimited miles are included for standard vehicle rentals in New Zealand. The comparison tool will show you if your preferred vehicle has this included or if the mileage is restricted.

Can I rent an RV in New Zealand if I’m under 21?

Most RV rental companies in New Zealand require the driver to be 21 years of age or older to access their full range of vehicles.

Some companies will rent to drivers between 18-21, but only certain models may be available. In those cases, additional insurance may be required.

Enter the driver’s age into our search tool and we will filter available vehicles to match.

Note: policies vary from supplier to supplier. Always check the T&Cs for your rental.
