Book with confidence — Plans change and we understand! Since this RV has a flexible cancellation policy, you've got some breathing room if your trip needs a tweak. You can find all the details in the cancellations section below.

If it’s adventure you’re after or just need a little “Timeout”, "The Trusty Trout” is for you. Whether it’s a quick trip over to the coast, to the far reaches of Slope Point in The Catlins, Carts on Cardrona, Farewell Spit, Alps 2 Ocean or to the furthest parts of Cape Reinga in the North, we would love to be apart of it. We have maps and pamphlets if you would like us to help plan your next adventure, that’s only if you want. I have seat belts for 5 people, and can sleep 4 with my 2 double beds. I have central locking, and come with a generous amount of interior lighting, storage containers for the fridge, camping table & chairs (for those nice summer nights) and a 240V mains cable for a campground hook up. I also have a tow ball for bikes if required. I’m fully equipped with linen, towels, cutlery, dishes, pots/pans, kettle, tea towels, dishwashing equipment, tea & plunger coffee, pepper & salt, cooking oil and a complementary bottle of wine (for those 5 nights or over). I have a large 80litre fridge which keeps the drinks cold for those hot days and can still be accessed with both beds made up, along with the 2 burner gas hobs and kitchen area (breakfast in bed for the lucky ones). Life’s too short, so we have to just get out there and do it. So what are you waiting for? Bring it on and make it happen, we’ll love to be apart of your next adventure.

    We had SUCH a lovely holiday in the trusty trout. We are a family of 5; two parents and three young children and we were able to all travel and sleep very comfortably. We spent three weeks travelling around the south island. The van has everything you need to be self contained. It's a very reliable vehicle, never making strange sounds or difficulties. We stayed at a mix of freedom camping spots and holiday parks and couldn't have been happier. We cooked most of our meals in the back and never ran out of propane. Clean up was easy as the van holds so much water for the tap usage. At night, we were able to keep the lights on in the van and charge our phones without worrying about the battery as the van is also on a generator. The only issue we had was that the power cord stopped working (to use at powered sites). It didn't really bother us as we didn't need heat at night. Ishrad offered to have the van serviced at whichever town we were passing through. He also offered to pay for holiday parks to accomodate for the inconvenience. We chose not to fix it, as again, it wasn't a problem - but had we wanted to, he would have made it very easy to do! Communication with Ishrad was so easy - we used whatsapp to communicate and he always answered my messages within the hour! Pick up from the airport was a breeze as was drop off. It was a wonderful holiday with a trustworthy vehicle to see the country and rest our heads at night. I would absolutely hire this van again!

    We had an amazing time in Irshads van during our trip around the South Island. The van was the perfect size for 3 of us and it had everything we needed. Irshad was very helpful and I wouldnt hesitate in recommending hiring from him!

    Thank you Ali for renting us the van. Weve had a great time in the campervan traveling the south island for two weeks, weve been 4 people and its been a good size for us. Kitchen is good and a nice place for cooking. beds are comfortable and easy to fold out and put back when driving. Its been nice that the car is automatic and its easy to drive. Easy communication with Ali and hes been a great help if needed. In conclusion, its been a great experience and we would recommend this car to anyone.
