About Euro Campers

Euro Campers is a campervan hire company in New Zealand with depots in Auckland and Christchurch. They are just one of three brands run by a parent company. Budgy Campers is the budget brand, Euro Campers is the mid-range, and Heron Campers is the luxury brand. All campervans are certified as self-contained across all three brands.

The Euro Campers founders are a pair of ex-pat Germans who worked in the campervan industry for other companies before establishing their own brand. They are seasoned travellers who also staff their company with other seasoned travellers, so they know how the renter feels when taking out the camper and what they are looking for. Their biggest theme is a "One Price Package" that includes, amongst other things, GPS, Wi-Fi, and an internet connection. In addition, they offer free airport transfer, no one-way fees, and free windscreen replacement plus underbody and roof coverage.

The fleet of Euro Campers is classified into Budgy Campers, Euro Campers, and Heron Campers. They have two vehicles for Budgy Campers, five for Euro Campers, and three for Heron Campers. Beddings and towels are also included in all campervans and motorhomes across the three brands.

Reviews for Euro Campers mostly show the positive reactions of travellers towards their services. The company is mostly praised for its staff who give satisfactory services and help whenever it is needed. Their campervans get good feedback as well for being clean, modern, and well equipped. However, some travellers have noted the age of some of the campers.

The ratings for Euro Campers may not always be a perfect 10, but they sure do give their best when it comes to serving road trippers. Based on their vehicles, they're a company that cares about how their vehicles look and function. Expect miles on the clock but plenty of care given to the interior living space.

Overall a strong recommendation. The inclusions are fantastic and they really do seem to care sincerely about the quality of the campervans and motorhomes.

Lasst es sein!
Leute, Leute, eigentlich bin ich kein Meckerer, aber hier muss ich. Wir bekamen einen uralten Hitop - über 300.000 km, die Innenausstattung war ziemlich "experienced". Und als wir wirklich Probleme mit der zweiten Batterie hatten (der Kühlschrank lief keinen halben Tag ohne Extra-Strom, sogar die Wasserpumpe versagte), war Euro Campers ziemlich desinteressiert. Wir halfen uns notgedrungen selbst mit vielen Campingplatz-Übernachtungen. Unsere anschließende Reklamation verlief sich in der Servicewüste von Euro Campers. Wir haben's nun als Erfahrung verbucht - aber würden gerne weitere NZ-Reisende woanders hin empfehlen. Lasst euch nicht vom vergleichsweise günstigen Preis blenden!

Catastrophic Campervan!
My husband and I rented a Toyota Regius Ace (Kingsleeper) from Eurocampers for 5 weeks over Christmas & New Year and we were completely disappointed! Why? - It already started, when we picked up the van: the storage space was really narrow. We almost couldn't fit our luggage into it. Fortunately, we didn't bring a suitcase, but only travel bags. If you would have a suitcase, you would need to leave it outside, always standing in the way. When you book, Eurocampers should actually tell you about that, so that you know, what you can bring & fit into the camper. - We also thought we would have a connection for power supply in the camper, but we didn't. Most of the campers in that size actually have a connection, but Eurocampers just didn't think it through. So, most of the things, like mobile phones, you can charge through the cigarette lighter in the van, when driving. However, our camera battery not. So always, when we went to a cafe or a paid campsite, we were looking for any possibility, where we could charge our camera battery. - The camper was too small for my 1,8-meters husband...he couldn't sit upright at the table and he lie straight in the bed. Eurocampers could advise you on things like that before booking - The cooling box was quite old and drew more volt than the cigarette lighter offered. So, our fuse melted twice and also our cable for the cigarette lighter melted. - The tyres didn't have any profile left on them. So on Christmas Eve we got stuck in some gravel. We called AA, who told us that Eurocampers is not in the AA anymore. So they could only give us a number from someone who could pull us out, but we had to pay him 200 Dollars in cash, so he would come and do that. We called Eurocampers after the holidays and after seeing photos of the tyres, they told us they were still fine (even when they didn't have any profile and we always had problems parking on gravel) and that we had to pay the 200 Dollars ourselves. - Shortly before New Year's Eve, our water tank broke, so we had to spent New Year's Eve at a workshop for 4 hours. The guy told us that there was a kink in the hose, so that's why the water or air couldn't get out fast enough and there was too much pressure on the tank, so it broke. He said, the way that everything was built in was very unprofessional and that it's no wonder it broke. In the evening we wanted to brush our teeth and recognised that now the water didn't drain from the sink. So the next day, we bought some tools ourselves and needed 1 hour to fix that. - Finally, when we gave back the camper, we didn't get any apology or refund for all our troubles and all the time we spent fixing things in the campervan. They didn't even bring us to the airport for free, because the last shuttle already left and they weren't kind enough to give us even that for our troubles. Conclusion: We had a lot of trouble and there was no cooperation from Eurocampers! So never book Eurocampers!

Euro Campers bed bug disaster
WARNING: Euro Campers bed bug disaster und irresponsible behaviour. They gave us an infected motorhome (we found a prior customer who already complained about it). They didn't take responsibility, didn't care about the impact on our belongings and left us all alone with this disastrous situation, which ruined our holiday. To this day they refuse to pay any refund or compensation. They are either ignorant or fully aware not interested in the severity of a bed bug infection and proper treatment. We felt completely left alone, not taken seriously and treated as a pain that needed to go away as quickly and painless (for Euro Campers) as possible. We surely didn't feel like customers who just spent over 20000 Euros but are now left with financial damages in the thousands and ruined holidays and have to deal with the aftermath and legal action.
