Following an epic experience renting through Camplify during our travels in Perth & WA in Nov 2023, we are excited to share our own camper with those visiting NZ's beautiful South Island! We consider ourselves very fortunate to call this beautiful place home and look forward to sharing it with you!

This campervan is perfect for 1 to 2 people. Great 12 volt set and good size fridge. Easy to drive and get around small towns. Bed is very comfy and super clean. Communication with the owners was simple with quick responses. Very easy hand over and only 10 minutes from airport.

My partner and I loved our time with Otto. Michaela and Jim were so super friendly and checked in with us on the road trip making sure everything was going smoothly. Definitely recommend them and their van.

Otto was the perfect way to travel around the South Island. We had a great time and would recommend Otto for a NZ road trip!

We had a fantastic trip with Otto. Myself and my mom rented Otto for 4 days. The van had everything that we needed for the trip. It was very cosy and warm, even in the cold weather. Michaela was great to deal with. She answered all our questions and was very helpful. It was a lovely van to drive and very fuel efficient. I would totally recommend this camper van for your trip.

We had the most amazing time exploring the NZ South Island in Otto!! The van was true to the photos advertised on Camplify. The bed was easy to set up & comfy. We visited in March, and with the warm bedding, were never cold at night - some nights got down to below zero. Otto drove really easily, and we never had any issues. It was also a very fuel efficient car to drive. We only filled up twice and drove around 1800kms. Michaela, the owner, was lovely to communicate with throughout the booking process, and was always responsive if we ever needed anything during our travels. All the features of the van were perfect, and we'd certainly recommend this to anyone travelling to NZ looking for a smaller van! We posted snippets of travels in NZ with Otto on our socials @madisonandjackson. We also did a van tour that we'll post in the coming days - check it out to get the full insight to how awesome Otto is :) Madison & Jackson

We spent 4 fantastic nights in the Mount Cook/Aoraki and lake Tekapo region. Otto was the perfect sized van for a short trip and had all of the amenities including fridge and easy to use gas cooker. The solar panel meant we didn't have to stress about plugging in to keep the batteries charged. The star of the show was the comfy mattress and warm duvet which made the cold nights a cozy experience. The communication from Jim and Michaela was excellent, they replied promptly when we had some minor issues with the van and the pick up and drop off process were very straightforward. I would definitely rent Otto again!
