We found Kiaora Campers on a review site and chose them on the back of their great reviews.
We weren't disappointed. Before we even got to NZ we had travel plan problems due to the conflict in the ME. Kiaora came straight back and offered to hold over our booking for a year. Fortunately we didn't need to take them up on their offer and we arrived in Christchurch as planned. We were met at the airport and taken to the depot where we had a comprehensive and friendly run down on camper van operation including the provision of maps and apps. Handover was smooth with no up selling. The Nomad van we hired was in excellent condition. It was apple car play compatible which made navigation easy and we had a thoroughly enjoyable 16 days on the South Island. Return was seamless with no wait at all for a lift to the airport terminal. If you want a smooth, hassle free van rental with excellent equipment and a friendly flexible service then Kiaora Campers will definitely see you right. Thanks guys. Pete & Donna.

In november 2025 hebben we 3 weken genoten van onze camperreis door het zuid - en het noordeiland.
Onze Mercedes Nomad met 3 volwassenen aan boord voldeed aan alle verwachtingen. Voldoende ruim en luxe uitgevoerd en toch geschikt voor de relatief smalle wegen.
Het is genoegen om door de bergen, de regenwouden en langs de prachtige kusten te rijden. Zowel de sleuteloverdracht in Christchurch bij de aanvang van de reis als bij het inleveren van camper in Auckland verliep super soepel. Met de Kia Ora man in Auckland die ons in de haven afleverde bij de Noordam als absolute topper.
Aotearoa NZ is een prachtig land met leuke ontspannen mensen. Steve en Nicky leveren een prachtig product,persoonlijk en flexibel.

We rented from Kia Ora campers and had a wonderful trip around the South Island of New Zealand for 14 days!
The camper was well equipped with everything you need included. The chilly nights were not a problem with the warm bedding supplied, even the pillows were comfortable! The inclusion of everything you need was really appreciated!
Steve was responsive when we had questions and we would both recommend and rent from them again!

We highly recommend Kia Ora Campers.
The camper was well equipped with everything we needed. They were very responsive when we experienced a problem with the cassette toilet. We drove all over the South Island and throughly enjoyed our trip, thanks to Kia Ora Campers. Would definitely rent from them again!

Cannot recommend Kia Ora campers enough!
The communication from the UK with Steve and Vicky was excellent. Despite the time difference speedy responses.
Our 3-berth Sprinter was fabulous! It was our ‘home’ for 5 weeks around NZ’s South Island and didn’t disappoint. We had lots of storage space and camper was very clean and in excellent condition.
New Zealand’s roads are perfect for campervan driving - it was a joy!
Many thanks to Steve and Vicky for such personal service.

This year we returned to New Zealand and rented a campervan from Kia Ora Campers for the second time.
The personal service from Vicky and Steve is beyond expectations, really great.
They respond quickly to emails and resolve any issues quickly, if there are any.
The total package they offer is very comprehensive, so you can travel safely and well-equipped.
The campervan was of high quality, very well maintained and spotlessly clean.
We had the Mercedes Cascade 4-berth, a nice spacious campervan with big windows. We used the portable barbecue they provided every day. The handy powered drop down bed on the ceiling is a nice invention and handy that you don't have to make and take down your bed every day. The awning is also very nice for sunny days, but also handy when it is not raining too hard. You can still sit outside.
We had 4 fantastic weeks on the South Island and hope to return in the future. We will definitely book with Kia Ora again and recommend them to anyone who wants to travel in New Zealand with a campervan. Our big compliments to Vicky and Steve.

Nous avons passé 8 semaines (19/3/24 - 10/05/24) à voyager dans le camping-car Mercedes Sprinter de Kira Ora de Christchurch à Auckland sur environ 8 700 km.
C'était notre première expérience en camping-car et ça a été fabuleux !
Nous avons trouvé Kia Ora Campers par le site Rankers NZ. C'est une vraie entreprise familiale et ça fait toute la différence dans les contacts et le service. Du premier contact à la restitution du véhicule, Steve et Vicky ont été de très bon conseil et se sont toujours rendus disponibles pour nous assister et répondre rapidement à toutes nos questions de débutants. Ils ont rendu tout simple et convivial.
Leurs véhicules sont propres, bien entretenus, très bien équipés (BBQ, haut-vent, panneaux solaires,…) et avec tous les petits accessoires qui facilitent la vie en camping-car, rien ne manque ! Le Sprinter est facile à conduire, assez puissant pour bien rouler et confortable.
Nous avons été pris en charge aller et retour à nos hôtels ce qui est un vrai avantage.
Côté prix ils sont également compétitifs en rapport qualité/équipements/ prix. Je recommande vivement !
Encore MERCI à Vicky et Steve pour cette belle expérience dans votre fabuleux pays !

We had a great time with the Mercedes Cascade.
Spacious and very efficient, extremely clean, and very well equipped.
The contact with Vicky and Steve is very nice.
This is the kind of hospitality and personal touch you want to come back for.
They respond quickly to emails and the welcome in New Zealand can only be described as very warm.
This has made us decide to rent a camper from Kia Ora Campers again for next year.
This probably says enough about our experience, really great!
We look forward to seeing you again and to our route through the overwhelming beauty of your country.
Keep up the good work!

Communications with Steve and Vicky the owners/managers of Kia Ora Campers were excellent both before and during the hire.
Any issues were dealt with promptly. The condition of the van and its contents were outstanding in particular in comparison with our previous hire of a motorhome from a large company. We had the van for 9 weeks and the supply of gas and toilet chemicals were easily adequate for the duration. The Mercedes Sprinter van was very easy to drive and the much needed heating was very good.

We've rented a campervan for 5,5 weeks.
The camper had everything we needed and drove like the best.
The contact before booking with Kia Ora was good and also afterwards.
We can strongly recommend Kia Ora

Very, very helpful company.
Vicky & Steve did all they could to provide us with suitable camper van despite being the busiest time of year. We had to change vans because of availability towards the end of our booking, but the changeover was very easy and we ended up with a larger, more comfortable van at no extra cost. The vans were very well equipped and proved very reliable. Vicky & Steve responded very quickly to all our many queries & questions. G and J Campers highly recommended.
