Hi, I'm Teresa

September 17, 2025

We spent almost two weeks with Kelvin in September and he was the perfect companion. Reliable, easy to drive and equipped with quite some power to tackle every road we wanted to climb. Inside you'll find a big fridge, a very warm duvet, pots, pans, heaps of storage... Basically everything you'll ever need, even a heater for the cooler nights. Thanks to Teresa we spent an amazing holiday on the North Island. Our initial booking had been cancelled and Teresa kindly offered us Kelvin as a backup plan. We're so thankful for this opportunity! She is very responsive, always ready to help and super kind-hearted. If you want to hire from someone who knows their way around campervans and all the adventures of NZ, you should absolutely choose one of her campers for a relaxed holiday.

Book Karl the Camperyou will not regret it! He's loved, well cared for, and thoughtfully kitted out for tripping around New Zealand. The experience was seamless. Teresa was responsive, and incredibly helpful, making pick-up day a total breeze. The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed (and more!) and Karl didnt skip a beat. Theres something special about exploring New Zealand with a campervan. This trip gave us memories for a lifetime. Highly, highly recommendthank you Teresa for sharing him with us and for helping make this journey truly unforgettable.

It was amazing ! The van is pretty nice to drive and the communication with Teresan was pretty easy. I recommend you at 100%

Karl was super easy to drive, even on some recently graded gravel roads (bumpy!) and up the really steep hills. The top cabin worked well for a second sleeping chamber (top bunk sleeper does need to be pretty limber to climb up there). Kitchen was stocked enough for our simple meals, and the mini fridge was a great size for storing all our groceries and our Indian take-away. And theres a coffee plunger, thank goodness.

We had an incredible 5 weeks with Kelvin! The van is really spacious and well equipped with everything needed for cooking - the air fryer in particular was a game changer! The bed was comfy, there was loads of space for storage, and having a big fridge made stocking up on groceries really easy. Being able to fully stand up inside without needing to stoop at all was also a big positive. We drove all round the North and South islands and the van drove so smoothly and reliably, and the engine is more than powerful enough to zoom up the steepest of NZ hills. Finally, all of the communication with Teresa was so friendly and helpful - we could not have asked for a better person to rent from. She even gave us a lift to the bus station to get the (very quick and easy) bus back into Auckland CBD. We thoroughly recommed hiring from Teresa, and if we are ever in New Zealand again we would definitely re-hire Kelvin.

We had a lovely holiday with Karl the Camper. We were two adults and two pre-schoolers and it was good although a little bit cramped. We had no issues with Karl on our 5 weeks trip and Teresa answered really quickly when we had a question. We can highly recommend her and Karl. :)

I have dreamed of seeing New Zealand since I was about 9. I finally got to see this amazing country and traveling by camper van was definitely the way to do it! Kelvin, out camper van, was amazing. Everything was clean and ready when we arrived. Teresa, our van host, was very helpful and shared so much information with us. New Zealand is definitely a place where getting off the beaten path reveals the true beauty of this country.

Overall, we had a good time with Kelvin in this wonderful country. :) It has a powerful engine and is a very reliable car. We really liked the good standing height and comfortable seating area. Its dimensions are very convenient for narrow streets or the ferry. We never had problems turning or fitting into parking spaces. With Teresa, we always had a contact person who was available and communication was friendly and quick. On the negative side the car was handed over to us dirty (there was tomato sauce on the table and the fridge hadn't been wiped down) and the cooking equipment was a little bit poor (1 pan & 1 small pot). So we spent time cleaning and buying pots & cups. Unfortunately, the bed is relatively hard because the mattress is very thin. We always put the mattress from the alcove underneath. With 29 and 32 years old, you shouldn't really notice it in your back (especially for this price). Also you have to be aware that there isn't much storage space. Thank you , Teresa and Kelvin, for letting us explore NZ - what a lovely place on earth :).

We had an epic road trip adventure with Karl and had everything we needed. Karl is super comfortable to drive with the automatic gearbox and Apple Carplay makes it easy to navigate around New Zealand. You have everything on board for cooking and washing up. The three of us rented the camper for 2.5 weeks and drove almost 4000 km. Karl offers enough space for this if you put your luggage on the front seats for sleeping. Communication with Teresa was super friendly and smooth. We had a few difficulties with the fridge and Teresa immediately offered us a solution to the problem. We are very grateful to Teresa that we were able to rent Karl and have such a great time in New Zealand! A clear recommendation from us :)
