2WD campervans can only be driven on sealed/bitumen roads.

4WD campervans can be driven on recognised tracks, depending on road conditions, weather and distance. Written permission may be required from the rental company for many areas in New Zealand.

Can l take my campervan or motorhome on the ferry crossing?

Yes, you can take your vehicle on the ferry which sails between the North and South Islands of New Zealand.

Make sure you book your ticket and vehicle on the ferry well in advance, as space sells out early during the summer and holiday months. When making your ferry booking you will be asked for the dimensions of your campervan/motorhome (height and length). The ferry cost will depend on the length of your campervan or motorhome.

Ferry crossings take approximately three hours with several sailings each day. It's best to check-in around 60 minutes prior to departure when you're crossing with a campervan.

What is the Road User Charge Recovery Fee (RUC) in New Zealand?

In New Zealand motorists must pay a government tax to use the road. The tax is charged depending on the distance you travelled, the fuel type and the type of vehicle travelled in. The Road User Charge Recovery Fee will be calculated and collected on return of the vehicle based on the kilometres travelled during the hire.

Driving in and around Auckland and the North Island


Driving around in a campervan is easier than you think!

Looking forward to getting on the open road and exploring the sights of Auckland and beyond in your campervan, but worried you’ll be unable to drive it? Don’t worry; the fleet of modern vehicles available on DriveNow are smooth, slick, and surprisingly easy to manoeuver. You’ll get used to cruising around the North Island in no time.

For those travelling from the likes of Australia and the UK driving in New Zealand will feel very much like home with vehicles travelling on the left and like Australia speed limits maxing out at 100kms (around 66mph). Unlike Australia you don’t have to travel too far between destinations and most State highways are made up of undivided roads with less than 500kms of motorway predominately located around cities. But rather than being a drawback, this ensures you get more time in your campervan to experience the beauty and innocence that New Zealand still offers.

Auckland is the perfect launching point to explore the North Island by road. Explore the stunning coastline of the Coromandel Peninsula, 3 hours away on the east coast or head north to the beauty of the Bay of Islands a little over 220kms up State Highway 1, or even go all the way and continue up State 1 to Cape Reinga, the country’s most northern tip (well almost, technically Surville Cliffs 30km to the north east is 3km further north but being off-limits to the public Cape Reinga is the most northerly point for your campervan.

Heading south you’re spoilt for choice with a plethora of National Parks, the mudpools and 30 metre Pohutu Geyser outside Rotorua, Lake Taupo and Hawke’s Bay all just a brief glimpse of what New Zealand’s North Island offers the road traveler.

Where to park your campervan around Auckland?


Sleep under an uninterrupted blanket of New Zealand stars

The beauty of travelling around New Zealand by campervan is having the freedom to set up camp wherever you like, as long as you’re not trespassing and are respectful of the environment. Freedom camping, as it is known, allows you to wake up each morning in places of unique and magnificent beauty proving that the adventure of the open road in New Zealand is like no place else. For those nights when you want amenities like hot water, washing facilities, and the chance to meet fellow campers; check out these campsites around Auckland.

Packing tips for your campervan holiday in Auckland

When you embark on your Auckland campervan adventure, it can be difficult knowing what to pack. As you’ll be sleeping, cooking, and cleaning in your van, you’ll have a list as long as your arm. Don’t stress DriveNow’s fleet of suppliers come with everything you need, plus the option to add on any additional extras. So, all you need to bring for your campervan hire in Auckland is yourself and your personal belongings. We recommend bringing soft cases as these are much easier to stow away than hard-covered suitcases.

Weather in Auckland


Auckland has a balanced climate making it a year round destination

Auckland and its surrounds have a reasonably comfortable climate all year round. In the summer months temperatures rarely exceed 30 degrees, and in the colder months of winter, the average daily temperature is 14 degrees. If you are visiting in winter, you may want to pack a raincoat and umbrella as the rainfall can get quite heavy during these months. Autumn is a great time to visit, as the crowds of summer have dispersed and the temperature is still pretty warm.
