Family-Owned New Zealand Campervan Rental Since 1998

At BANZ Travelcars, we believe the best way to experience New Zealand is from the driver’s seat of a comfortable, self-contained campervan.

For more than 25 years, we’ve helped travellers from around the world explore New Zealand with reliable vehicles, honest advice and personal service.

Unlike large multinational rental fleets, we’re a family-owned New Zealand business focused on quality over quantity.

Our goal is simple:

Provide well-equipped campervans and friendly service that help create unforgettable New Zealand adventures.

Our Story

From Family Business to Trusted Campervan Specialists

BANZ Travelcars was founded in 1998 with a passion for helping visitors experience New Zealand independently. Prior to that, in 1993, we also founded Bike Adventure New Zealand, offering motorcycle adventure tours around New Zealand. Back then, we thought we were one of the pioneers introducing this to the New Zealand Adventure tourism industry.

Over the years, we’ve welcomed many travellers from around the world, helping them discover everything from Northland beaches to the mountains of the South Island.

As a family-owned company, we’ve always focused on building long-term relationships rather than simply processing bookings.

That philosophy still guides our business today.

We understand that hiring a campervan is more than a transaction.

For many travellers, it’s the start of a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Why we focus on Toyota Hiace Campervans

Reliable, Practical and Easy to Drive

We choose Toyota Hiace campervans because they are well suited to New Zealand’s roads and travel conditions.

Compared with larger motorhomes, a Toyota Hiace offers:

  • Easier parking
  • Better manoeuvrability
  • Comfortable driving
  • Practical living space
  • Lower stress for first-time campervan travellers

For couples and independent travellers, a compact campervan often provides the ideal balance between comfort and convenience.

Sustainability & Responsible Travel

Travelling Responsibly

We encourage responsible campervan travel throughout New Zealand.

Our self-contained campervans help travellers minimise their environmental impact while supporting responsible freedom camping practices.

We encourage all visitors to:

  • Respect local communities
  • Follow freedom camping rules
  • Leave no trace
  • Support local businesses

Explore New Zealand Your Way

Freedom to Travel at Your Own Pace

One of the biggest advantages of campervan travel is flexibility.

Wake up beside a lake.

Spend an extra day in a town you love.

Change your route when you discover a hidden destination.

With a self-contained campervan, your accommodation travels with you.

That freedom is what makes campervan travel such a memorable way to experience New Zealand
