Should I hire or buy a campervan in Australia?

This is probably the joint number one question our customers ask Travelwheels Campervan Hire when they are looking for an adventure holiday in Australia.

How old to hire campervan in Australia with Travelwheels?

With Travelwheels Campervan Hire you only need to be over 20 years old to hire one of our campervans if you want to take out the full insurance cover.

If you are aged between 18 to 20 years old, then you can hire a travelwheels campervan and can have a reduced insurance bond of $1000 for only an extra $10 per day.

To hire a campervan you must have a valid full drivers licence, and not a provisional “P” or “L” plate licence holder.  If you are an overseas traveller with a driving licence written in a language other than English, it’s worth getting an international licence or a translation of your licence just in case you are stopped by the police.

Travel Insurance Policy, but does it cover Campervan Hire Insurance?

Travel Insurance Policy, but does it cover Campervan Hire Insurance?

The thing about campervan hire insurance is this; you don’t need it until you need it!  Many people believe their travel insurance policy will cover them!

Travel Insurance Policies do not cover hiring campervans!

In the event of an accident, your policy will not cover you for damages involving campervan hire. Please read the small print of your travel insurance policy. Unfortunately, we have many sad examples to back this up! We had customers in the past not taken out campervan insurance and then had an accident! They have been liable for thousands of dollars of damages!
