We hired the 2017 Model Kiwicamper 2/3ST for our 2,900km trip around the south island of NZ.

Generally, our experience with Kiwicampers Christchurch was very positive. They were very helpful in explaining the general workings of the campervan but were not well versed on the exact details e.g. how to clear toilet casette, drain the grey water and to refill the fresh water. This was a bit disconcerting as we were first timers. We managed by giving it a go ourselves and learning from other campers. The camper was perfect for me and my wife in terms of size and functionality. The bed is comfortable for 2 adults only. It was fully kitted with gas stove, hot/cold water sink, shower, fridge, heater, toaster and kettle. Surprisingly, the size of the fridge was ample as we bought a lot of food on our trip. The TV was a let down as it only played the DVD. We were not told that the TV did not work although it was part of the package. Everything worked and the campervan had grunt as well. We found that 1 bottle of chemical is sufficient (for toilet casette) for 20 days. The gas bottle was more than adequate for our trip even though we cooked a fair bit. On thing to note is the in-vehicle dining table top - its heavy/bulky and difficult to remove when you make the bed. We did not use it as it was cumbersome. Overall, the staff at Kiwicampers Christchurch were great and we had a fantastic memorable trip celebrating our 20 wedding anniversary in NZ. Would recommend Kiwicampers to anyone. Cheers. Kia Ora 😀
