Do I need a special licence to hire a campervan in Sydney?

For most travelers, a special licence is not necessary to hire a campervan in Sydney. A valid driving licence is required, though, to operate any of our vehicles. If you are a non-EU citizen, an International Driving Permit (IDP) may be required in addition to your home country’s driving licence. Additionally, your licence must match the transmission type of the vehicle (manual or automatic). You can find more details about driving licence requirements here.

Are pets allowed in your campervans?

Yes, our campervans are pet-friendly. Just be sure to add the extra cleaning service when booking. This ensures a professional anti-allergy cleaning is carried out after your trip. Please note that only one pet is allowed per campervan, and it must not exceed 30kg in weight. Also, we are not liable for any legal fees related to traveling with pets. If you’re booking through our marketplace, check the “vehicle rules” section to confirm if the vehicle is pet-friendly.

How many people can sleep in a campervan?

The sleeping capacity of our campervans and motorhomes varies depending on the model and size. Our Class C motorhomes can typically accommodate 4 to 8 people, while our Class B campervans can sleep between 2 to 4 people. Vehicles equipped with a rooftop tent generally have space for around 2 people. For a full breakdown of our models and sleeping capacities, click here.

“Great support from Julietta and Juan! We’ll see them again soon!”

Wolfgang M.

“Von der Buchung über die Abholung bis zur Abgabe hat alles wirklich sehr gut geklappt. Auch Kleinigkeiten wie die nachträgliche Eintragung eines zweiten Fahrers oder der Austausch von Equipment haben sehr gut geklappt. Dach Zelt war deutlich geräumiger und besser als erwartet und auch gut aufzubauen bzw. einzuklappen. ”
