The local team, especially Kate, was great and went way above and beyond. They made the experience worth it and I would do it again.
One issue is I ended up paying for an early pickup at 10am when it turned out that it wasn’t necessary. The local team had it ready and was at work for me at 9am so...

Phil at check in was very friendly and helped with providing internet for money transfer etc.
The checkin felt quite rushed and could imagine feeling very confused overwhelmed if i hadn’t used a van for travel before.
There were some scrunched up sheet in one of the cupboards, I was unsure if these ...

Of the 12 countries I have visited while renting from Indie Camper, the team at the Christchurch NZ location has been by far the most considerate, friendly and helpful. I had the pleasure of working with Marciano and the manager Philip. They were both incredibly professional and even stayed late whe...

Better online communication. The team in Christchurch were awesome to deal with just seemed unfair to expect them to be on hand 24/7.
The linen situation wasn’t sufficient for winter. We ended up buying our own duvet and linen. Our camper was perfect for two. Was a great size for having everythin...

The workers at Indie were helpful upon pick-up and drop-off. Even gave me a lift back to airport for flight.

Give travelers a review of spare tire kit/procedure. Fortunately didn’t need it but realized part way through trip I didn’t know where things were. It may have been mentioned but I missed it. Thanks to Mars in Christchurch for getting us on our way and the Auckland team for checking us back in!

Better quality of the beddings would be an improvement. The whole process was smooth and with very friendly and helpful people. Specially the service from Kash at check out in Auckland was great. Also the team in Christchurch did an amazing job by getting us on the road with some great tips.

We picked up the van in excellent condition, very clean and everything as expected! We spent 4 weeks in an odyssey pop top exploring the South Island. Pick-up was really straight forward and Phil (manager) spent time going through an excellent itinerary for our trip. Mars did an excellent tour throu...

I made a list of suggestions and gave to the employee. On top of that a direct telephone number from the office would be helpful in case of any problem. Very satisfied indeed. Thanks

Only thing we didn't know was water would empty if temperatures dropped below 3°. However by reading the manual we figured it out We loved our indie camper there was plenty of space and the heating system was amazing! Highly recommend them for your roadtrip.

The final clean was missed.
EG wiping the bench to remove the dust and sprinkles. But otherwise it was great! There was no pick up from the airport.
The gas bottle was completely empty so we had to buy one, $60 later it lasted our 12 day trip with over half a bottle left over. Indicamper said they...

We had a great experience hiring this vehicle for our South Island road trip. We had everything we needed and the set up was super convenient - popping up and taking down the tent took about a minute - so it made it easy when we were arriving late at a campsite or leaving early. We only had one nigh...

In autumn perhaps swap the duvets for sleeping bags or something a little bit warmer!
BUT we appreciated the local team providing two duvets instead of 1 to help us keep warm! Katelyn and Phillip were fantastic during check in. So helpful and friendly and gave us some top tips. Gave us all the info ...

Overall, we were very satisfied with our Indie Camper. Easy pickup nd drop off at Christchurch. They very kindly gave us a lift to the airport also. We had it for 11 days travelling around the South Island and it was perfect for our trip. We had no issues with anything.

Everything was excellent! We rented a Campervan for our trip to New Zealand, starting our journey from Christchurch. The staff at the check-in were incredibly helpful and took the time to explain everything about the camper van. One thing I appreciated was that the van had a QR code to scan, which t...

The check in instructions were great, however, a more thorough demo of the vehicle would have been useful.
We asked to see the tent up/how to put it back but this wasn’t going to be shown otherwise. Similarly, the sink was missing the plug which we were then given once I pointed it out but we could...
Indie Campers in the News
"Indie Campers have launched a long-term subscription service after seeing a 66% rise in requests from remote workers. The #vanlife lifestyle could be about to expand beyond the Instagram tribe."
"Perhaps a camper van, parked up on a lonely beach or mountain road, could be the perfect solution to the socially distanced summer holiday of 2020."
"Pick up your wheels from west London and hit the road in a sleek van from Indie Campers, with an itinerary and extras like wi-fi, a shower and bikes and barbecues in the boot. Effortless camping? Yes please."
"UK holidays have taken precedence this year. Now, Indie Campers is offering British campervan owners the chance to rent out their own vehicles."
