We just finished a 3-week trip in Timmy. Our experience with this van was fantastic. The display is the best part, and the fact you can turn the bed into a table is a game changer for the New Zealand weather, which can be super unpredictable. New Zealand has lots of rain, so being able to sit inside for cooking and letting the storms pass makes day-to-day living super easy and fun. This van has plenty of storage, it is very well equipped with cooking gear, and is a super functional setup that makes daily life simple. On colder days you can hang out inside quite comfortably, and on warmer days its great to cook from the back door, enjoy the sun with the camping chairs, and use the outdoor table. We traveled during the month of September, so the weather was still cold. Timmy kept us very warmits a good idea to bring a sleeping bag for the colder months. The van is also super cozy: the lights worked great, and the solar panel let us charge phones, cameras, and computers on a daily basis. Regarding the driving aspect, Timmy was super smooth, fuel efficient, and never gave us a problem during these three weeks. Once again, our highlight of Timmy is the fact you can convert the table into the bed. Its the best investment you can make for the New Zealand van life. Youll be thankful to sit inside on those colder, rainy days. Timmy is a great vanreliable, cozy, and super functional for New Zealand van life.

Camperella is such a special van! Cozy, comfy & reliable, this van saw me through seamlessly throughout my 3 weeks in NZ. Could not recommend more!

We rented Camperella for four months, and it was just what we were looking for. Stan was great to deal with, he is super friendly, quick to respond, and always ready to help, even sharing some great local tips. The van was comfortable and fully equipped with everything we needed. The best part was the ability to cook inside, which is a bonus when you're camping with sandflies! We would definitely rent a van from Stan again.

We enjoyed every day of our journey with Skipper! He always was convenient and had everything we needed (kitchen facilities, gas stove, fridge and an extra solar powered battery). Skipper has been build with love. Stan was always helpful, answered very quickly and gave us recommodations what we should explore. In summary we definetely recommend Stan and Skipper!

We had a fantastic holiday traveling around South Island for about 2 weeks in Timmy! Timmy is a the perfect size, easy to drive and park but plenty of space for two people. Equipped with everything we needed and lovely and cosy when the weather was cold. A nicely thought out space so we could spend time in the van when it was raining but so easy to convert from table and chairs to the bed. Stan was very helpful and flexible. Cant wait to plan the next adventure!

We had a great time and Timmy turned out to be more than what we had hoped for. We absolutely love the kitchen setup and the bed was long enough and very comfortable for my six foot frame. Thank you for going out of your way to help us when we were trying to catch the bus on time and for your extraordinary commitment you put in to help us recover the items we forgot in the van.

I loved the van, I found it cosy and comfortable, had everything I needed. Loved the solar panel to keep fridge going when I wasnt driving. Was easy to drive, but slow on hills- that was fine by me . Highly recommend this van for a camping trip

We had a brilliant 3 weeks exploring the South Island in Skipper! Stan was very easy to communicate with throughout and was accommodating with drop off/pick up arrangements. He was also quick to respond to the few questions we had along the way during our trip. The van drives smoothly despite being a bit on the older side, we had no mechanical issues during our whole lap of the island. Theres no A/C in the van but we didnt find this to be a problem at all even in the middle of summer. Pick up is in Wanaka but we found it very easy to get here by the direct Ritchies bus from Queenstown airport which drops you off just round the corner from where Skipper is located.
