Cheapa Australia Campervan Hire...
"Just a quick note the say THANKS for organizing our campers vans for our holiday in Darwin. The Cheapa Hitop campervans were the best, and the service we received from both SelfdriveShop.com and Apollo Campers couldn't of been better. Was great dealing with all of you."

Apollo USA RV Hire...
"SelfDriveShop was a great company to book through. They answered every email promptly and were knowledgeable about the motor homes they had for rent. We rented a Class A 34 foot Motorhome from Apollo for 5 months, so we could drive around America. SelfDriveShop offered the best price and package around, we booked with the Inclusive Package. The Inclusive package allowed us the comfort of hiring the RV for 5 months and not having to worry about how many miles we were driving, extra driving fee, bedding and towels and roadside assistance.
The RV was great, we choose the biggest one as we would be spending so much time in it, and didn't regret our decision. The RV had an awning and 2 slide outs, the bath and shower were very spacious for a RV, the TV was bigger than the one we have at home, and there was storage galore. The RV was easy to drive once we got used to it, and the big armchair drivers seats made long days of driving a breeze. We drove all around the lower 48 states, managing to see 32 of them and already have plans of going back in 10 years to do it again. Our favorite places included Walt Disney World, Savannah, Georgia, Yuma, Arizona, Tenneessee in general and Salem, Massachuttus.
Thanks SelfDriveShop for helping to make our trip amazing."

| Hippie Campervan Hire...
"Like last year, I had a wonderful time in New Zealand enjoying the wonders of nature of the south island in my Hippie Campervan. I had a similar experience with your company, Hippie in Christchurch and the camper van itself as last year, I'm pleased to say. I hope you enjoy the photos from my campervan trip. I have some fabulous mirror reflection photos from Lake Matheson and others. I have an intention of doing much the same campervan rental next year."

Apollo Campervan Rental...
"Many thanks for all your help in arranging the Apollo 4 Berth Euro Camper hire for us, it was an absolutely fantastic trip, apart from the rain, which happened every day but it didn't deter us from having a good time, we caught up with our grandchildren in Queensland, we were very lucky as when my husband went to pick up the van in Adelaide the one we were supposed to get had apparently been blown up, lack of oil in motor so they did not have one for us so got one from Queensland down but it was a 6 berth, which was very good much more room to put things in.
Your staff were very helpful especially as I asked for my dog to be included and there was no hassle, she sat on my knee 90% of the time but actually slept which she never ever does. I have a lap table turned upside down and this was ideal.
We went from Adelaide to Port Macquarie NSW, then Maleny, Childers, Boyne Island and Mackay all in Qld, down to Queanbeyan NSW then home to Bute dropped the van off in Adelaide and then back to our home town in Coober Pedy, all in all a very eventful trip but very exciting. As you can see we travelled quite a few kilometres, but thoroughly enjoyed it, just wish it could have been longer.
Unfortunately I did not get any pictures. But many thanks for all your help and I am sure that if we ever need one again we will certainly contact you."

Apollo Motorhome Hire...
"We were very happy with your service and the website. I found our 6 Berth Apollo Motorhome ideal - very easy to drive and a good size for my adult family during the very wet weather we met in Central Australia. Unfortunatlely the house battery in our van "died" several days into our journey and we had to resort to dinner by candlelight when we were uable to find a powered site. To their great credit, Apollo in Alice Springs were very responsive upon our return. I would not hesitate to use-self-drive and Apollo again, and will recommend both companies to our friends."

Hippie Camper New Zealand...
"Thanks to you and your staff in Oz and the staff in NZ I had a wonderful trouble-free holiday touring the South Island of New Zealand in the Hippie Camper I hired. Actually the van was well suited to my needs. I hope to go back to the South Island again next year to further explore places of interest I noted on this trip.
To achieve what I set out to do during my holiday I needed a suitable, reliable and hassle free vehicle from pick-up to drop-off and I'm pleased to say the Hippie Camper was more than up to the task. While this time around I didn't take full advantage of all the supplied equipment in the van, it was a comfort to know it was available should it be needed.
Cheers from a very happy camper."

Apollo Motorhome Hire...
"I just had 2 weeks with an Apollo 4 Berth Euro Camper that we booked with SelfdriveShop.com and I would like to tell you that Apollo Motorhome Holidays gave us excellent service and looked after us extremely well. The person who looked after us in Brisbane was great and nothing was any trouble. Also, upon our return I left some things in the motorhome and the staff looked after us again. The courteous and expert service is second to none and I would just like to show my appreciation for the best service I have come across. Well done guys, you are a credit to your company."

Apollo Campervan Hire...
"I can honestly say I have never been as happy with a holiday booking process as I was with Self Drive Shop (and I've booked a lot of holidays).
The lady who handled my New Zealand booking was really helpful and I was thrilled that she took the time to call me and make sure I had booked the motorhome that best suited me. It turned out that I hadn't booked the best one and I was able to change the booking.
All the advice both on the website and by the staff was helpful and credible.
The staff at Apollo in New Zealand were also really lovely and helpful. We were a bit unsure about hiring a motorhome, as we'd never done it before, but we both agreed that it was our best holiday ever and the 2 Berth S/T campervan really allowed us the flexibility and convenience to explore northern NZ the way we wanted to. Thanks very much for a great holiday experience!"

Maui Campervan Rental...
"We had a great 3-week holiday in our Maui rental campervan in Australia. My wife, daughter and I
toured south from Sydney via the coast to Melbourne and returned inland via the Snowy and Blue Mountains. The Selfdriveshop.com website was excellent and booking was easy and straightforward. Email contact was also excellent."

Maui Campervan Hire...
"Everything about our holiday in New Zealand was wonderful and we can't
wait to return some day!
The Self Drive Shop website was easy to use and gave us all the details
we needed when choosing our campervan. We were able to compare prices and
different types of vans which were available for the dates we required.
Once we had reached a decision, our booking was completed online
efficiently and promptly.
All the arrangements went perfectly, we were transferred from the
airport at Christchurch where the Maui 2 Berth S/T campervan was ready for us. The same when
we returned the van to Auckland, we were transferred to the airport for
our flight home.
We would have no hesitation in using the Self Drive Shop again on any
future holidays to New Zealand and would recommend the company to all
our friends.
Thank you for your help in making our holiday so enjoyable."

Britz Campervan Rental...
"We have just returned from our campervan rental in Tasmania. We took only memories left only footprints. The West Coast of Tasmania and Gordon River region is simply breathtaking.
We couldn't fault the whole experience - excellent all over. We were very satisfied with the whole Hobart/Tassie operation. We will refer you to friends. Thanks."

Apollo Motorhome Hire...
"Oh ya! We had a great time in Perth. It was very interesting and fun to drive the Apollo 6 Berth Euro Deluxe around. We found your company offered the best price for campervans compared to other companies that offer the similar vehicles. If we go back to Perth again, surely we will book through your company again. Thanks a lot!"

Apollo Motorhome Rental...
"We just got off the road today and had a wicked time in New Zealand! I am actually a travel agent and have been for the previous 12 years. I am currently on maternity leave so rather than trying to arrange a vehicle through a supplier, I thought it might be just as easy to book it online. I found SelfdriveShop.com online and the website was excellent and easy to use. We had an amazing trip in our Apollo 4 Berth motorhome and are already planning our next trip, it will be in Summer next time though. We took our two little girls with us (3 years and 7 months) and it was one of the easiest holidays.
Everything on board, if the wee one got hungry we would just pull over the side of the road, flip open the stove and heat up a bottle for her. Couldn't have been easier. I have attached a photo of our wee poppets in the back of the van - very comfy as you can see. Thanks a million, we had an awesome time. We couldn't recommend it enough to people travelling with small children."

Apollo Motorhome Hire...
"Thank you for the opportunity to respond. I can only "heap" praise upon the service provided. The website was excellent. It provided a comprehensive, easily followed presentation. It basically answered all our questions. The range of products offered was adequate for our needs - although I should emphasise that we were largely inexperienced in this area. Consultant advice was friendly and accurate, both over the phone and when the vehicle was collected and returned. The Apollo 4 Berth Euro Camper was very clean and all equipment was excellent. I would be very happy to recommend your services to anyone."

"We had a fantastic time travelling in Tasmania with the Britz 6 Berth Frontier, unfortunately it just wasn't quite long enough. We had no problems whatsoever with either our booking or campervan and have recommended you to anyone wanting to book a campervan in Australia or New Zealand. This was our first campervan experience and we loved it so much we plan to it again in our own country next."

Apollo Campervan Hire...
"We found the whole experience excellent. Booking and payment were easy. Picking up the two Apollo Hitop vans that we booked was simple and everyone at Apollo was very helpful and nice. We thought the prices you offered were excellent and the way you laid out the terms and conditions made it very clear exactly what we would be getting and what was included in the price. As we had made two separate bookings through you for two legs of our journey I communicated with your sales staff via e-mail in relation to payment and they did exactly what I had asked and were wonderfully accommodating. I would definitely recommend you to other friends who might be looking to hire a van and I would use your site again. Many thanks for helping to make a wonderful holiday."

Apollo Campervan Rental...
"We were really happy with the Apollo Hitop camper that we hired in Australia - it had all that we needed for our holiday. The cost of petrol added to our holiday budget but your staff were always friendly and helpful and the man from Apollo in Darwin was great. He told us some great places to see and things to do. Thanks for helping make our holiday great."

Britz Motorhome Hire...
"Thank you for all of your assistance in arranging the booking of a Britz 6 Berth Frontier camper van for us in Auckland. We found your web site easy to navigate and easy to understand and the information in it regarding the rental unit was fairly complete and accurate.
We have owned and extensively used campers and motorhomes for many years and we wanted to stay with a venue that is familiar to us on our first trip outside of North America. Consequently finding an appropriate motorhome/camper van to rent and information about New Zealand's holiday park system was important to us. Your website, Britz's and Top 10 provided the information we needed. What we did not appreciate at the time, and were, therefore, quite unprepared for, was the completeness of the facilities to be found at NZ holiday parks versus those here in the US. Admittedly we did stay, for the most part, at Top 10 parks, and all were very clean and beautifully set up. But we were particularly impressed with the communal food preparation and dining facilities which were to be found at every park (as they are totally unknown here). Thank you for helping to make our trip the exciting adventure that it was for us."

"We wad an absolutely fabulous holiday with the Apollo Euro Tourer in Australia. The web site was easy to navigate and gave us all the info we required. There was some mix up when we went to pick up the campervan but that was easily sorted when the agent telephoned you. The van itself had everything we needed was clean and tidy. We have no complaints at all and would certainly use you again if we go to Australia again."

Britz Campervan Rental...
"Just a quick note to let you know that we were extremely happy with the Britz Elite campervan we rented in Hobart and the service we received was good. The van was a pleasure to drive and as it was our first experience with a campervan we thouroughly enjoyed the freedom of being able to put in the extra hours when travelling and not being restricted to getting to a destination for a hotel booking. We will be looking at doing it again in the not so distant future. Thank you once again."

You provided helpful assistance post booking prior to our picking up the vehicle. The pick up and drop off service provided by Kea was excellent and the customer service from Kea was first rate at all times. The Kea 2 Berth S/T campervan was great and we had a super holiday."

Apollo Motorhome Hire...
"I thought the website was brilliant, especially being able to look at the schematics for the camper vans. I could see straight away what was located where in the van and make a decision about whether that was suitable for our needs. Especially important to us was the ability to pick up from one location and drop off at another. The quick quote facility is another brilliant way of playing around with dates and van types to get an idea of rates. I would recommend the website to anyone thinking of going to Australia or New Zealand for a holiday as I think a camper van is the best way to see the country with the least hassle. We travelled through New Zealand in the Apollo 4 Berth motorhome - it's literally a moving hotel."

"We have travelled around Australia 5 times now and this was the third time that we have used SelfdriveShop.com. We find the website easy to navigate and the choice of motorhomes excellent. Your travel consultants have been very helpful indeed, I would say as much that your customer service puts this country to shame. The motorhomes that we have had have all been excellent and the service at the depots extremely friendly and helpful. I have recommended your website to one of my work collegues, as they are thinking of hiring a motorhome next year."

I was very happy with your service - thank you! All your responses were quick, helpful and polite and told me exactly what I needed to know. I would definitely recommend your website and hope travel back to NZ again myself."

"We had a fantastic time in New Zealand even though it rained every day. The Kea 4 Berth motor home certainly was the way to go especially with the rain. Kea is a great company to deal with. They went through each aspect of the motor home thoroughly, so when we left we knew exactly what to. When we do this again you will be the company to deal with. Thanks for your help - I have let my friends know to book the motor homes through your company."

"We found your site most helpful and we booked the Apollo campervan. Travelling in New Zealand with the Apollo 2 Berth S/T camper van was great. We arrived at the Airport and Apollo picked us up showed us the van and told us where to stay. The van was comfortable and economical and drove very well. We had no problems with it whatsover and it helped us to tour the whole of the South Island. The staff at Apollo were helpful and friendly and when we dropped it off they dropped us off at the airport - it was so simple."
