Johan and Tamsyn are 10/10 hosts & and both sensational people. They went above and beyond - Johan even gave me a lift back into town after I dropped the van off. The van was awesome too - exactly as pictured/described. Would highly recommend to any and all!

I had a wonderful 5 weeks with the campervan and was able to explore New Zealand in a relaxed manner. The van drives very well and I had enough space in it. The van has everything you could need (cooking utensils, spices, tea, coffee, fridge, supply of gas cartridges and even washing powder). The van is in very good condition, very clean and tidy. I was also very grateful that Johan and Tamsyn provided enough towels and blankets. I really liked that. Communication with Johan and Tamsyn was very good. I highly recommend it! :-)

Incredible experience! John and Tamsyn were exceptional and went over and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly and I had a wonderful road trip up the North. Very accomodating and attentive. Van was epic, perfect for my needs. All you need is clothes and food and youre ready to go! Highly recommend!

And we are back.. 5 days and we did so so so much!!!! Picked the van up in Auckland.. we covered around 1200km without rushing Auckland to Rotarua, lap of the lake, hells gate, Matai village, Tutea Falls, then drove to Taup and saw Huka Falls. Then Turangi. Then to Tongariro Mt Ruapehu skiing at Whakapapa ski field. Stayed the skotel alpine resort then drive to Tokoroa, Tauranga/Mt Naungui, then Waihi beach worst fish n chips ever. Partied with an all black and works class jockeys then Whangamata. To Hot water beach, Hahei ski kayak to cathedral cove .. the Whitianga dinner and a flat tyre.. then Coromandel for the best mussels and oysters and best fish and chips . To Thames via Wilsons bay and back to Auckland! The van didn't miss a beat, had great nights sleep every evening (and no lack of camping spots either) 10/10 would rent again!! Thanks guys !!
