JUCY Campers New Zealand

JUCY is a well-established New Zealand-born campervan and car rental company that launched in 2001 in Auckland and has since grown into a major player in Australasian self-drive travel. It’s part of the broader Travvia Group and is widely recognised for its bright green and purple vehicles designed to appeal to adventurous, budget-conscious travellers looking to explore New Zealand’s scenic roads and attractions. While the company also operates in Australia and the Pacific and offers car rentals alongside campervans, its core identity remains tied to enabling memorable road trips where the journey itself is as important as the destination.

JUCY’s services centre on a range of campervan and motorhome rentals suited to different travel needs and group sizes. In New Zealand, you can choose from compact and economical 2-berth vans like the Crib, self-contained 3-berth and 4-berth models like the Chaser and Condo, and larger vehicles for groups and families, all available from depots in Auckland, Christchurch, and Queenstown. These vehicles generally include essentials such as kitchen facilities, bedding and unlimited kilometres, and the company offers 24/7 roadside support, airport transfers and flexible one-way hire options so you can tailor your trip across both the North and South Islands.

Travellers choosing JUCY often appreciate its fun, value-focused branding and straightforward booking process, with services aimed at making road trips accessible without unnecessary complexity. However, customer reviews are mixed: while many highlight friendly staff, reasonable pricing and easy pick-ups, others report issues with vehicle condition and customer service responsiveness, especially during busy seasons — so it’s wise to research recent experiences and clarify inclusions before booking.
