New Zealand Van Camping Guide
by Henry Van Campa, published by Heikki Kaariainen, printed by The Copy PressHenry Van Campa's New Zealand Van Camping Guide is a comprehensive guide for travelers with campervans, vans, motor homes, RVs or any other suitable vehicle in New Zealand.
New Zealand is perhaps the best country in the world to travel with a campervan. Short distances between places of interest, friendly locals speaking Kiwi English, lots of activities for any budget, relatively cheap fuel and food and varied scenery with amazing natural beauty all make your stay in this land of plenty a memorable experience.
Henry Van Campa's New Zealand Van Camping Guide is aimed at Free Independent Travelers who want to experience this land of plenty with their own itinerary and mostly stay off the beaten track driving their own or a rental mobile home.
The listings of places to stay include camping sites with natural beauty, many of which are located off the beaten track close to nature. Also included are parks and reserves in urban environments which are suitable for short stays like picnics, sports or that afternoon nap.
The first section of the book covers practical advice on renting or buying a suitable vehicle, maintenance equipment, driving tips, safety advice and other tips on how to have a safe and enjoyable journey and save money at the same time.
The second section include listings of cheap or free camping sites, picnic and other recreational areas. Also included are recycling shops, public showers, public dumping stations for your toilet waste, and public laundromats around the country.
You will also need good maps of New Zealand to help with finding the locations. Most of the listings include GPS coordinates.
Have a safe and happy journey!
