Sometimes, I’m a plumber. 👩‍🔧
This is the grey water outlet pipe from Lewis our 3 berth Adventurer. Apparently it wanted a new life and broke free from the grey water tank it had been bonded to. So I undid every connection, pulled it all out, and had to decide what to do with this.

Currently waiting on a new tank with pipe threads built in to see if it fits! Lewis currently out of action 🚐❌

(I guess the real test is can I put it all back together correctly?!)

Get in, we're going to Coromandel... 🤩

You can do it all with your bed just a few steps away in a Palmy Camper!!

And even better, for the next couple of months our rentals start at just $70 a day...

So, is Coromandel a stop on your road trip? 👀

What are the PC team listening to on their road trips?

We asked a couple of the Palmy Campers team what their go-to tunes were, and it's safe to say their campers are an absolute vibe!!! 🎶

From Queen to K-Pop Demon Hunters, we really cover the whole spectrum of music...

What song are you adding to the Palmy Campers playlist?

Winter in New Zealand is a season everyone sleeps on, and we can't quite work out how considering...

❄️ There's fewer crowds
Popular hikes, beaches, and lookouts are far quieter, no lines, no rushing, just your adventure on your terms!!

💵 The rental costs are LOWER
Winter camper hire is far cheaper than summer, meaning more budget for extending your adventure!!!

And SO much more... Even better, for the winter months our rentals start at just $70 a day!!!!

Which one are you choosing?

Winter road trips are full of:
❄️ No queues
❄️ Snow covered mountains
❄️ Misty mornings and cosy evenings
❄️ Lower rental fees & off-peak activity pricing

Whereas Summer road trips have:
☀️Bright mornings and longer evenings
☀️Surfing and swimming galore
☀️Pōhutukawa in bloom

In our view, there isn't a bad time to hop in a camper and take a tour round NZ... There is always something to see, do or someone to chat with 🤩

A bunch of hires wrapped up at once, and suddenly it’s looking a little full around here.

So for the next 10 days, we thought we’d send them back out where they belong, on the road.

🚐 It’s a long weekend
✨ And we’ve got a little deal running…

40% off 4+ day hires
20% off 2 day hires
