Why Spaceships?

A Spaceship is ideal for those looking for a camper than enables you to travel with the same comfort, performance and low on road costs of a good car.

We are campervan specialists! Spaceships are designed and built for the New Zealand roads and weather conditions. A Spaceship provides a very comfortable drive and features that work for New Zealand conditions – such as an internal bed for colder nights and external sleeping option with 30% more space and ventialtion for hot summer nights.

Well suited for exploring remote and beautiful New Zealand Department of Conservation Campgrounds but equally well suited for mainstream holiday parks and accommodation.

With great value daily rates, free day deals and excellent cover through the All Inclusive Insurance you can travel with complete peace of mind and spend more of your money on activities compared to travelling in a Motorhome.

You also save on petrol as a Spaceship uses between 9-10 litres per 100km and goes on the ferry for the price of a car. 

All Inclusive Insurance

The All Inclusive gives you a great option to reduce your risk completely to $0 and provides excellent coverage for everything that could happen whether it is your fault or not. We recommend travelling with All Inclusive.

There are no hidden costs when you arrive to collect your Spaceship. All costs are outlined in our terms and at the time of booking. By taking the All Inclusive you avoid having to pay any one way fees that may apply and there are no daily repair fees should you or someone else damage the vehicle meaning it was off fleet for repairs.
