Experience the ultimate New Zealand road trip in Obelix, a newly fitted Toyota Hiace designed for those who value freedom, comfort, and zero stress. Fully self-contained and powered by solar with an NZC Green Card, Obelix is your ticket to freedom camping in the most stunning remote spots. Unlike many rentals, we believe in a transparent, all-inclusive experience: - We pay all toll road fees and Road User Charges (RUCs) so you don't have to. - Your gas refills are included, no need to buy canisters at the end of your trip. - Automatic transmission and a reverse camera make maneuvering a breeze, even for those new to campervans. Inside features: - The dining area converts into a spacious queen-size bed with custom-fit window covers for a dark, cozy night’s sleep. - Fully equipped with premium cookware (pots, pans, plates, cups, glasses). - We provide the essentials—oil, coffee, tea, sugar, salt, and pepper. Winter Ready: - For cooler months, we provide a warm duvet and can include a small electric heater and power lead upon request. Outdoor Living: - Full setup included: Camping table, comfortable chairs, and a solar shower for that refreshing off-grid rinse.

It’s perfect for off-grid freedom, but please be mindful that heavy cloud cover can affect charging rates. - The van features Android Auto and multiple charging ports.

    Matt has cleverly designed this van to include absolutely everything required for camping. It is a great size to drive anywhere including in town and the bed is big and comfortable. Matt was very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.

    We loved traveling with Obelix for 6 weeks around the North and South Island. The van is super comfortable, very well designed, easy to drive and super reliable (we made it down to the Milford Sounds and back without a single issue ). Obelix has everything we needed for living from a well equipped kitchen with a nicely working cook top to a comfortable bedding and sufficient space despite his small outside. He become our lovely drivable home when heading out to adventures. Communication with Matt & Jane were super easy and fast and they took good care that we had everything we needed. We highly recommend traveling with Obelix. Thanks a lot, for making our time with Obelix so easy, fun and truly enjoyable.

    Great road trip with Obelix! The van is comfortable to sleep in even if we are quite tall. It is easy to drive and park, inside it has an excellent layout of the spaces. Matt and Jane are very nice and we have a great communication with them. Highly recommended for travelling in NZ. I will for sure contact them again if i will come again in NZ
