Hitting the road with Sirocco is like travelling with a good mate; he’s got everything sorted so you can just kick back and enjoy the ride. All you need to bring is your clothes, food, and sense of adventure. This 2005 Ford Transit is fully self-contained, so you’re sweet as whether you’re freedom camping by the lake or camped up at a holiday park.
He’s got all the creature comforts ; a cosy double bed, diesel heater to keep you toasty, gas cooker, fridge, and even a portable outdoor solar shower for those off-the-grid spots. There’s heaps of storage for your gear, guidebooks to help you find the best local gems, plus board games and outdoor games for when you want a bit of fun after a day’s exploring.
Sirocco’s perfect for you if you’re after a proper Kiwi roadie! A mix of adventure, comfort, and freedom. He’s the sort of van that makes a cuppa with a mountain view or a yarn under the stars feel like home. And every trip helps give back to nature, with any donations going to DOC for the kākāpō recovery!
So, if you’re keen to explore Aotearoa at your own pace, with a solid, trusty sidekick along for the ride, Sirocco’s your bloke/ bird.

Additional information
For a smooth as trip, it helps to know Sirocco is suited for 1-2 travellers. He’s self-contained, so you can freedom camp legally. Please return him tidy, refuelled, and with the waste tanks emptied. Don’t worry; we’ll walk you through how everything works before you set off. Important to note: Sirocco is a manual drive. He has a double bed that runs side-to-side, so if you’re taller than a standard bed length you won’t be able to hang your feet off the end. And finally, please, no off-roading and no smoking.

About the owner
Kia ora! Were Chris and Sam; a couple of adventure seekers who love exploring Aotearoa and meeting new people along the way. Queenstown is home for us, and when were not out on the road ourselves, were stoked to share our van Sirocco with fellow travellers so they can experience the best of NZ at their own pace.
Were both passionate about the outdoors, whether its hiking up a maunga, swimming in an alpine lake, or just enjoying a good coffee (or beer) with a view. Sams the organised one who makes sure everything is comfy and cosy in the van, while Im the one whos usually tinkering away making sure everythings running smoothly.
Weve kitted Sirocco out with all the little touches we love when travelling; from a proper comfy bed and cooking gear, to games, guidebooks, and even a few local tips for must-do adventures around Queenstown and beyond.
At the end of the day, we just want you to have an epic time exploring, with a safe, easy, and fun home on wheels to come back to.
