PICKING YOUR VEHICLE SIZE & EXTRAS

Campervans come in a variety of sizes, styles and sleeping configurations. Choosing the correct campervan to suit your needs means first properly assessing the number of passengers, expected sleeping arrangements and the facilities you require.


2-6 BERTH CAMPERVANS

From a simple Hi-Top Campervan that sleeps 2 people (2 Berth) up to luxury motorhomes sleeping up to 6 people (6 berth) there are plenty of options when choosing a vehicle. Sleeping configurations are also important to consider; where some vehicles may have a simple double bed others have split singles to sleep 3 or 5 guests at once.

Travel Tip: Use our night time/day time campervan interior maps available on most vehicles to decide which sleeping configuration works best for your trip!



SELF-CONTAINED CAMPERVANS

You will most likely notice a difference in pricing when comparing converted vans or Hi-Tops with 6 berth RV’s – this is because of the vehicles ability to be more self-reliant. A Self-Contained Campervan is simply a vehicle with the amenities to travel and camp without outside-resources.

Self-Contained vehicles are able to be parked at free campsites and non-powered sites (although the vehicle will need to be charged every 2-3 days), where the use of the shower and toilet inside the vehicle could end up saving you a considerable amount on camp fees etc.

Self-Contained Campervans come with grey water (sink and shower) and toilet cartridges that need to be emptied regularly.

OPTIONAL EXTRAS

Upon booking your vehicle hire with Discovery Campervans you will be given a range of options and additional extras to customise your vehicle to fit you and your holiday best. Optional Extras differ between the supplier brands but usually include the following:

  • Baby Booster Seat
  • Camp Table & Chairs
  • GPS
  • Toll Packages
  • Bike Rack & Bike Hire
  • Gas Bottle Refill & more…


BOND & LIABILITY

Insurance usually comes part and parcel with renting a motorhome, suppliers are not willing to hire out their vehicles unless they have some insurance that it will be returned in one piece. Bond amounts for average vehicles is around $5,000.

A massive charge to your credit card is perhaps not the most relaxing way to kick off your self-drive holiday, so to reduce your Vehicle Bond and Liability Fee Discovery Campervans has the Stress Free Package.

The Stress Free Package adds an additional cost per day (see our table for amounts) to your rental whilst heavily reducing your Vehicle Bond and Liability Fee, making for some truly stress-free travel!
