FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a special licence to drive a campervan in Australia or NZ? ▾
No special licence required. A valid full driver's licence from your home country is enough. If it's not in English you'll also need an International Driving Permit (IDP) or certified translation. Most rentals are car-licence-friendly even for the bigger motorhomes.
Who is a campervan trip suited to? ▾
Anyone from first-time backpackers to gap-year couples to families wanting a cheaper Aussie road-trip. You don't need to be a hardcore camper, modern campervans cook, sleep and store gear for you.
Is travelling in a campervan expensive? ▾
Cheaper than you'd think. A campervan rolls sleeping, transport and cooking into one. For 2+ travellers it usually beats bus + hostel + restaurants once you're 5+ days into a trip.
Can I pick up in one city and drop off in another? ▾
Yes, one-way hires are common. Sydney → Cairns is the classic East Coast run. One-way fees apply and vary by season, we tell you upfront in the quote.
I'm travelling solo, is a campervan worth it? ▾
Honest answer: it's pricier solo. If meeting people matters, bus passes + hostels are usually more social. If freedom and remote nature is the priority, a small campervan can still work solo.
What insurance comes with the rental? ▾
Basic insurance is included by every operator. There's an optional excess-reduction add-on ($15–35/day) that lowers your out-of-pocket excess if something happens. Worth it on long trips and rough terrain.
Can I camp anywhere I want? ▾
Not quite. Free-camping spots exist all over Australia (national parks, rest areas, council sites) but city beaches and most urban areas are off-limits. We share the best free-camping app links once you book.
How do I book? ▾
Use the quote form above. We shop every operator for your dates and email back the best rate with a secure booking link. Payment goes directly to the operator on their secure checkout.
Can I change my dates after booking? ▾
Most operators allow free date changes up to 14–28 days before pickup, subject to availability. Higher-priced periods may have a price difference. We help you reschedule, no fee from us.
How does booking with Wanderlust save me money? ▾
We have agent rates with every major operator and seasonal promo codes the public site doesn't always show, and we do the comparing across every operator in one shot.
Can I hire if I'm under 21? ▾
Some operators rent to 18+ for compact campers. Bigger motorhomes usually need 21+ or 25+. Tell us your age in the quote, we'll only suggest operators that fit.
Do you charge a booking fee? ▾
No. Our quoting service is 100% free for you. We're paid a small commission by the operator when you book, so we work hard to find the right trip, but you never pay extra for it.
