Yes, we work with all rental companies across Australia and New Zealand and are happy to guide you towards those that cater for drivers under the age of 21 years old. 

Enter your age into our search engine and Summer Campers will show you all vehicle options available for under 21s. Some extra fees may apply to bookings made by drivers under the age of 21.

When driving in Australia and New Zealand it is essential to keep your valid overseas driver’s licence with you at all times. 

If your licence is not in English you will need either an International Driving Permit (IDP) or an official English translation. Obtaining an English translation is a simple and affordable way to ensure you comply with local requirements. An official translation typically costs around 15€: a small investment to avoid any potential issues with the authorities.

No, we do not charge any booking fees. Our service is completely free.

Upon booking with Summer Campers you will receive confirmation within 10 minutes that your booking has been accepted. You will then have access to our WhatsApp live chat, where our team is ready to assist you throughout your entire journey.

We will also provide you with a complimentary booking pack that contains valuable resources such as recommended apps, a digital travel itinerary, a fuel calculator, top tips, and essential information for your trip.

Finally, we will gift you a Summer Travel discount voucher that you can use on any activities you would like to book.

Although insurance is not required, we recommend you take it in order to safeguard your campervan or motorhome from any unexpected damage during your trip. Insurance provides valuable peace of mind, allowing you to fully enjoy your adventure without unnecessary worry.

With the right insurance option you can also often eliminate the need for a large security deposit/bond at pick up, making the rental process smoother.

You can typically expect to pay around $30 – $60 per day for insurance.

When you book with Summer Campers you have the flexibility to adjust your rental dates at no extra cost, depending on vehicle availability and potential seasonal pricing changes.

We recommend making any changes to your itinerary as soon as possible to ensure you secure your preferred dates.

If you see ‘instant confirmation’ on the vehicle you would like to book, this means the vehicle is ready now. You can make your booking knowing that you will receive confirmation within 10 minutes.

If you see ‘on request’ for the vehicle you would like to book, you will not be charged while we check and make sure the vehicle is available. It is likely this vehicle is the last one, so may not be available to book.
