Hippie Campers in New Zealand
Hippie Camper is a popular campervan rental company in New Zealand known for offering budget-friendly road trip vehicle hire geared especially toward young travellers, backpackers, and anyone wanting a flexible self-drive adventure. Founded in 2006, it operates as part of the Apollo Motorhome Holidays / THL family of brands, benefiting from the support and network of one of the largest recreational vehicle rental groups in the world. Hippie Campers has depots conveniently located in major tourism hubs — Auckland, Christchurch, and Queenstown — providing easy access to both the North and South Islands for travellers looking to explore New Zealand’s diverse landscapes at their own pace.
The core service offered by Hippie Camper is its range of equipped campervans, designed with simplicity and value in mind. Their fleet typically includes models like the Hitop and Endeavour campervans, which come fitted with essential features such as double beds, kitchen facilities (fridge, sink, stove), bedding, and general equipment for cooking and everyday comfort. These vehicles are ideal for budget travellers or companions planning to stay mainly in campgrounds rather than relying on onboard showers or toilets, and many hires include 24/7 roadside assistance for peace of mind while on the road.
