Freedom Campers in New Zealand
Freedom Campers (New Zealand) is a Kiwi-owned and operated campervan and motorhome rental company that’s been serving travellers throughout Aotearoa since the early 1980s, offering budget-friendly vehicles and flexible hire options to explore both the North and South Islands.
Freedom Campers specialises in providing a range of well-maintained campervans — from compact 2-berth and 2-3 berth models up to larger 4- and 6-berth motorhomes — that are designed to suit couples, families or groups travelling New Zealand by road. These vehicles typically include living and sleeping space, kitchen facilities, and options for showers and toilets, supported by 24-hour roadside assistance through the Automobile Association for peace of mind on long journeys.
As a mid-range provider, Freedom Campers aims to balance comfort and value, making it a popular choice for travellers looking to experience the freedom of a self-drive holiday without the higher cost of premium brands. They offer features like unlimited kilometres, no extra charges for additional drivers, complimentary airport pick-up and drop-off, and helpful travel guides to plan your itinerary.
The company has depots in major locations such as Auckland and Christchurch, with pickup and drop-off options extending to places like Wellington, Picton, Greymouth, Dunedin and Queenstown (sometimes with an additional fee), enabling one-way travel across the country.
Freedom Campers appeals particularly to adventure-minded travellers keen to explore New Zealand’s scenic highways, national parks and coastal routes at their own pace, whether stopping at holiday parks or self-contained freedom camping spots where permitted.
