Kickass New Zealand Road Trips
New Zealand (Aotearoa) is widely considered the adventure capital of the world, and there is absolutely no better way to see it than in a Wicked Camper. From the smoking volcanic peaks of the North Island to the dramatic fjords and glaciers of the South, this country is a playground for the brave. Our blog provides the blueprints for your Kiwi adventure.
The roads here are winding, the views are insane, and the freedom camping culture is unique. Whether you are starting in Auckland or Queenstown, you need a solid plan before you turn the key.
Start Your Engine in Queenstown
Queenstown isn't just a town; it's a vibe. It's the perfect launchpad for a South Island loop.
1. Getting Around Queenstown
Check out our essential guide on looking for campervan rentals in Queenstown. We break down what you need to know about picking up your van and navigating the adventure capital.
2. Driving in NZ
Unlike Australia's straight highways, NZ roads are narrow and mountainous. A "100km" drive might take 2 hours. Take your time, pull over for faster traffic, and enjoy the scenery. It is literally like driving through a movie set.
