Backpacker
Campervans are the ideal way to explore New Zealand economically,
comfortably and safely. They are perfect for budget-conscious travellers
who still want clean, fully equipped campervans with reliable back-up
service from New Zealand's largest rental vehicle operator.
Backpacker Campervans have a few more miles on
the clock than their Maui
or Britz
counterparts, so you can experience the great fishing New Zealand
has to offer more cheaply without blowing your budget.
