Campervan Discounts for NZ

I thought the bargain hunters here would absolutely know. I've been doing some research for a family (2A +2K) trip to the south island of NZ and think a campervan would be fun. Not having to pack and unpack and check out at a certain time and settle into new beds is tempting with kids. But I'm yet to locate a good deal on a campervan. i was thinking of Queenstown since Jetstar fly there (and currently have return for free) - but that appears to limit options.

I have an entertainment book with 10% but not sure if there's something better out there with NRMA or a credit card or something?

Any ideas?

  • It really depends what time of year you are looking to travel.
    During winter campervan hire can be very cheap.
    Don't forget to budget site costs.

  • How are you ascertaining if it is a good deal or not?
    There are definitely multiple companies with offerings, so the competition is there. Demand will drive the prices on offer.

    The other comparison would be for hiring a car and incurring accommodation costs.

  • Use a comparison site such as: https://www.vroomvroomvroom.com.au/campervans/

  • There's a site called Share a camper that is like the Airbnb of campers, I've never used it but may be worth a research.
    Also, be wary about the ridiculous freedom camping laws in Queenstown, so you'll have to pay to park at a holiday park or camping site if you want to stay right in Queenstown
