With an extensive range of vehicles for hire, Travellers Autobarn is still one of the most in-demand rental companies in the country. They continue to cater to the budget market, with options for backpackers, couples, families, and groups of friends. Also, they have new additions to their depot―Alice Spring and Byron Bay. 

Travellers Autobarn is an award-winning campervan hire company in Australia that supplies 2 to 5 berth campervans, cars, and motorhomes. They are one of the few suppliers in Australia that will rent to 18-21yo clients.

About Travellers Autobarn 

Established in 1993, Travellers Autobarn has now 8 depots around Australia: Alice Springs, Brisbane, Byron Bay, Cairns, Darwin, Melbourne, Perth, and Sydney. They are a large campervan hire in Australia that rents compact campers aimed at the budget and youth markets. A slow upgrade of their campers shows that they may be starting to head for a wealthier market. Additionally, they are one of the limited campervan hire companies in the country that allow rentals to under 21 years old. Accordingly, they are quite a charm for young backpackers and budget travellers.

Travellers Autobarn's selection of rental vehicles is broad enough to cater for different sizes. They have campervans and motorhomes that accommodate couples, a family of 4 and a group of 5. The Budgie and the Station Wagons go out as their cheapest choices while the newer Hi5 model acts as the priciest among all on set. The units on offer are either run by Mitsubishi or Toyota Hiace models, with 2005 as the oldest models and 2013 as the newest. 

The Vehicles

Station wagon.

Truly a backpacker classic, the Station Wagon is a simple 2 berth campervan built on a 2005 - 2010 Ford Falcon Stationwagon model.  An older campervan, this one is surprisingly cheaper than a bus, though way more straightforward. There are no frills at all, aside from the seating area/ storage space that acts as your sleeping option at night and the kitchen facilities at the rear for outside cooking. You can opt for a dome tent if you want to have more room for stretching.

The cheapest campervan on offer, the Budgie is a simple campervan with a layout and amenities that have been tried and tested by many budget campervan hire companies. The rear seats fold out to take up most the rear for the bed at night. On the other hand, the kitchenette is accessed by putting up the rear door. Since this is a Mitsubishi-based vehicle, this may be a little noisier and less comfortable to drive than the Hiace model. Additionally, the age of the vehicle means that the tech ability of the entertainment system will leave something to be desired. On the bright side, approximately 50% of the campervans come with roof racks for extra storage of weatherproof gear.

Chubby Campervan

The “Chubby” budget van, is built on the Mitsubishi Express with an age range of 3-4 years old.  Each Chubby is individually painted and the fittings are pretty much industry standard― sleeps 2, esky for cold storage, kitchenette sink, food storage at the back, and cooking with the rear door up. There are a handful of companies that are adding awnings/tents to the back door to protect you from the elements whilst cooking, and the Chubby is one of these. The “easy to assemble” awning comes standard with the hire and can save you from getting wet if you have to cook while it is raining. Overall, the awning is that main thing setting this vehicle apart from its closest competitors. One final thing to note though is that they have a headphone jack in the CD player to plug in your iPod. These are excruciatingly rare so keep that in mind if the music you listen to in your travels is high on importance agenda.

HiTop Campervan

The HiTop is the next price level up. This model is for those that want a little more room and a little more luxury. Seating and sleeping 3, this unit allows for sleeping upstairs and downstairs―1 up and 2 down. This would be great if you have a child or friend coming along. Cooking facilities allow for entirely inside cooking and it comes with a fridge and a microwave. The microwave will only run when connected to mains power like when camped a caravan park or similar. The fridge is dual power so will run on the house battery and the mains. Like nearly all budget campervans, it is a manual gear vehicle (stick shift), so if you can’t drive one of those, you will have to move up a price range or two. The beauty of the hi-top is that you can stand upright inside the vehicle.  Hence, this is a fantastic option for longer trips or for taller people. It also allows for extra storage in the area above the drivers head. Never fear, though, this vehicle already has plenty of cupboard space inside. The downside of the model is that the extra height causes extra drag on the vehicle and the fuel economy is reduced. If doing a super long journey, this will have some impact on fuel bills.

Ideal for bigger families, the Hi5 Campervan is built on a longer wheelbase Toyota Hiace. Though the company claims this campervan to be 5 people, this model is technically suitable for 4 adults or 1 couple with 2 or 3 kids as there are only two double beds. The campervan is the biggest vehicle and it comes with amazing cooking and storing facilities like a large fridge, microwave, sink, and gas stove. Since this one has an interior kitchen, your cooking sessions can be done inside the vehicle without restraining your movements. Stand up freely while witnessing the scenic countryside.

Kuga Campervan

The difference between the normal HiTop campervan and the Kuga Campervan is the newness. The Kuga vehicles are newer and hence have overall less wear and tear. The fittings and upholstery are nicer and any recent design improvements are going to be found in these vehicles. One new design element is the slide-out bench that pops out through the side door, but that is hardly a deal maker. Generally, there are more lights, prettier laminate on the cupboards, thicker cushions, and even carpet on the ceiling but the overall design of the vehicle is the same. So, if you like a little more “pamper” on your journeys, this is the one for you. Unfortunately, if you want to be able to play your iPod, you will have to rent the Chubby because you can’t plug into the hi-tech AM/FM radios―it’s a Toyota thing.

Budget Campervan

The Budget Campervan is the oldest 2-3 berth hi-top in the range. It is nice to see that Travellers Autobarn doesn't try and cover it up. They openly tell you that it is older, got higher KMs, and has more wear and tear. They are the cheapest campervan in the hi-top range for a reason. If you are simply looking for a campervan that will go from A to B with only the basics included and you are not concerned about shiny new objects, then this model may be for you.

With Travellers Autobarn, you are given three options: Standard Protection at $0/ day with $3,000 liability, Midway Protection at $20/day for with $1,500 liability, and Protection Plus at $30/day with $0 liability. The Protection Plus also includes coverage for single-vehicle roll-over or single-vehicle write-off. Accordingly, these insurance options are paid thru a credit card at the time of vehicle pick-up. 

Really, Travellers Autobarn should only be on your radar if you are looking for older, or more importantly, cheaper models. Whilst they are introducing models as young as 2013, they are not going to be the majority of the fleet. Generally, there a few complaints about the company and that is a sign that they do things well, but go in with your eyes open. You can’t rent a campervan that is 10 years old and under $45pd and expect great things. Their fleet of older campervans is highly suitable for those who want to save money and still get a decent holiday on wheels. So, If you are looking for the newest kind of vehicle with all the frills and fancies, then you might not have the best options from Travellers Autobarn. 

Overall, Travellers Autobarn is recommended if looking in the budget range. Here, you can secure an affordable unit that is well functional and nicely furnished with camping essentials.

We hired the budget campervan for 3 weeks and had no issues at all. The inside was a bit worn out but that's to be expected considering how cheap it was. Would definitely recommend hiring from Travellers Autobarn.

I’ve never been much of a reviewer but feel the need to let other travelers know. The car I rented was not registered, so I could’ve been fined $1,500 had I not gotten an understanding police officer. I was there over Christmas so no mechanics were open and all the accommodation around me was booked up. TA expected me to put my whole vacation on hold and not drive for days. Due to the holiday it took a while to process the new paperwork I guess, so even after they told me I was good to go I got pulled over AGAIN. At that point TA told me they would drive out a new car for me to use instead since it was taking so long to process. So apparently that was an option the entire time!!! I was furious. Additionally, the whole first week I had it one of the back doors didn’t lock so someone could’ve easily broken in until I took it to a mechanic. I get the feeling they don’t take good care of their cars at all. All the customer service people I spoke to were very nice, but I shouldn’t have had to spend so much time of a once-in-a-lifetime vacation on the phone with TA . Also, note that the free camping gear provided is terrible. The two man tent was barely big enough for just me and I’m only 5’4”. The sleeping bag was terribly thin so I was freezing until I could get one of those emergency blankets. Crinkly but effective. Just a terrible experience overall .

reliable van that worked well, no major issues.

" Pretty happy "

We rented a Budget Hi Top Camper for three months in the Australian winter for around $3300 (through an agency). One of the cheapest deals we could find, particularly for a Hi Top. The alternative was a Jucy El Cheapo, a Toyota Estima, a much smaller, fuel inefficient SUV. Overall we were really pleased with the service Traveller's Autobarn offered. The price was great and as it was a budget version we were happy to overlook the wear and tear on the van (e.g. clunky cupboards, bed not that comfortable, CD player broken, air vents not working properly, central locking broken). You can't expect to get a pristine van for this price. What we didn't like was the fact we had to go out and buy blankets because the thin sleeping bags were completely inadequate for the time of year. We found TAB to be pleasant and helpful on the phone and during pick up and drop off. We have separate insurance to cover all the things that aren't covered by the TAB insurance - single vehicle roll overs, hitting animals, windscreen damage etc, so I would look into that before buying their own insurance (we used rentalcover.com). We weren't pressured into adding on extras during pick up like you often are when renting vehicles. Our van did break down once (we drove a seriously long way in it) and we found TAB themselves to be very helpful. Their roadside assistance helpline that is outsourced elsewhere was useless however. We broke down in the middle of nowhere and were told that we would have to pay for a tow to get us to the nearest town (this would cost $1800). This was in fact completely untrue. We ended up spending the night in the desert unable to sleep in the van as a result of this. The next day we spoke to TAB themselves who reassured us that this wasn't the case and they sent out a recovery truck at no cost to ourselves. We were refunded the downtime and back on the road shortly. Overall, I would recommend TAB if you are on a budget and it's not going to be the end of the world if your van has a few little quirks or breaks down. You are renting a vehicle with a serious amount of kms of the clock, so things may fail. We also felt that TAB were honest and weren't necessarily constantly trying to find ways to charge us extra. The rental is cheap, so there are some aspects of the rental which aren't as great as some of the more expensive companies - you can only drive 500 metres on a gravel road to a campsite which is really restrictive (other companies offer more) and the insurance as noted above is not that comprehensive. If money was no object, I'd rent from another company that offers newer vans that can go further on gravel roads (I think Jucy allows you to travel further offroad to a campsite...). I'd probably rent a 4x4 to be honest, however, these guys are a good budget choice, just make sure you fully read and understand the contract you are signing. One more thing, TAB don't actually take the bond from your credit card, they just freeze it. This means you don't get charged foreign transaction fees. Other companies take the money and the fees can amount to a couple of hundred dollars.

The stationwagon is simply not as advertised, you can't really sleep in the car, no curtains or tinted windows, no rainshields on the windows - you can't open the windows when it rains, no moskito nets, no plain surface to sleep. customer service very disappointing. you are not allowed to drive at night or on gravel roads (which you definetely have to do to get to some places) - NEVER AGAIN!

Having recently rented a space wagon for a month, we have nothing but positives with regards to our experience with Travellers Autobarn. The entire process leading up to the rental was quick and straight forward making it very simple and easy to organise and pick up the car we wanted. The staff were also extremely informative about certain aspects such as toll roads and campsites around the country. Our space wagon was in very good condition, very clean and well equipped for camping whilst travelling the entire length of the East Coast. We highly recommend Travellers Autobarn and would definitely rent from them in the future. A great experience and a massive thanks to the company! Charles & Louise-Anne, Gibraltar.

I did a lot of car rentals in my life including big companies like Europcar, Hertz or Sixt as well as local rentals. I even rented a campervan in the USA with "Escape Campervans" which is basically Travellers Autobarn. I was happy with all's the rentals mentioned above and never had problems with those even in case of insurance or ticket issues. Even due to my very good experiences in the USA I decided to go again with Travellers Autobarn. I rented a campervan with Travellers Autobarn in Australia In 2016 for about 4 weeks. After research in the Internet and a lot of good experiences in forums they sounded like the best option for a budget campervan rental. So at first the good thinks I liked with Travelers Autobarn: 1. The car was very clean at the pick up. 2. Engine, breaks and tires had a good condition and seemed to get good maintenance. 3. Camping equipment was OK, bit to old and crappy so that we need to replace some small parts but at all allright. So the very necessary basics worked fine then. By what I really did not like is the service and how the company interacts withe there customers. Following points bothered me and in sum shaped my opinion to never rent again with this company: 1. After renting the car, Travellers Autobarn changed there pick up office in Melbourne for the car and did not send us any information about it. We just got lucky that somebody told us a day before in the hostel we stayed. I mean you can change your office but please send us mail and tell us about it Travelers Autobarn. 2. We had technical problems with paying the bond for the insurance (due to low credit card limits) and needed to upgrade the booked insurance package what we did not want. This wasn't a fault made by Travellers Autobarn, but the information about how they charge the bond on the credit card was pretty bad. Furthermore they just gave us the option to upgrade the insurance and pay a few hundred dollars more instead of the bond. So the flexibility of the company in cases like that can be better. We offered other ways to pay the bond like a bank account transfer or or a payment in 24 hours after increasing the limit on the cards - they did not accept. The one way of payment or not getting the car or upgrade the insurance. 3. The car was running OK like mentioned above (engine, breaks and tires), but the outside was horrible. The windscreen had 2 stone cracks, the car had bumps on both sides, the front and the back. OK it's a budget rental, but the employee who did the damage check of the car with us just marked the whole sides of the car on the record. In my eyes this is unprofessional. I asked an Australian car trader I met on the travels if that is usual business in Australia and he really complained about the record as well. 4. As we signed the contract we got explained in detail what we can be charged for (toll fees, speed limit tickets, parking fees, car damages, broken key, returning dirty car etc.). I remember the employee told us that we should be carefull not bending the car key because they have a lot of problems with it. Then he handed a bended key to us about 5 minutes later - not very professional Travellers Autobarn. 5. We got a small scratch from a stone in the windscreen after travelling with the car. So we had insurance for that and informed Travellers Autobarn via E-Mail. They wrote back that it's no problem but we should cover it with a sticker they store in the car for that issue. Unfortunately Travellers Autobarn forgot to do place the stickers in our car. It's just a tiny think but shows me one more time how they work. 6. As we returned the car in Brisbane we had to wait for about 1 hour before somebody had time to check our car and returns it. There was 1 employee in the office for about 8 customers who wanted to return or pick up a car. Sorry its not enough. I have seen some other employees there but they did not care about us and did other stuff - I think they haven't been responsible for the office stuff and did the maintenance on the cars. 7. After finishing our holidays I received a charge on my credit card with 75 AUD 7 weeks after returning the car and no further information from Travellers Autobarn. I knew it would be a ticket issue (it's part of the rental contract) and asked Travellers Autobarn by E-Mail to send me details. They did and it was an issue about a toll road used and not paid. I checked this payment and date and as far as I see I paid the toll fee. As I told travellers Autobarn and sended them the payment part from my credit card bill, they wrote me back that they haven't done an error on the issue and neither the toll road company and I have to pay the toll company. I think they never checked my complain and just send me prewritten standard mails that are matching for everybody. What bothers me most is the fact, that Travellers Autobarn did not send me details about the issue but charged my credit card. So I still had to pay the toll fee at the toll company, luckily I recognized the charge on my credit card and could ask what it is for otherwise I would not have known about that problem. So Traveler Autobarn what is the 75 AUD for if you even not inform your customer about a ticket? To sum up I have to say that I am honestly unhappy with the service and the communication Travelers Autobarn did. If I see the market for budget campervan rentals in Australia I would suggest everybody to hire with a different company there are enough other options.

" Good car, worth the money ! "

We travelled from Perth to Darwin and drove 7000kms with the station wagon during 1 month. Everything was fine on pickup. The car and the living equipment were very clean. We have our own Inflatable mattress so it was quite confortable to sleep in the car. When it was hot during night time, we slept in the tent they provide in the living equipment. Even if the car was a bit old (around 280 000km), it doesnt consume a lot : 9.5L/100Km We just had a problem the last day in Darwin with the battery. We called the road assistance and 30minutes later, we had a new battery in the car without pay anything. Kimda & Gautier from live-our-trip.com

3 Tips for driving your campervan around Perth

Situated on the west coast of Australia, Perth is the capital city of Western Australia and is the fourth most populous city in the country. The city is known for its clear skies, beautiful beaches, and relaxed lifestyle.

If you’re planning to hire a campervan and explore Perth and its surrounds, here are a few tips to help you on your way.

Avoid peak hour traffic

Peak hour traffic in Perth can be a nightmare, so plan your trips around it if you can. Avoid travelling during the morning and afternoon rush hours if possible, and you’ll avoid getting stuck in traffic.

The heaviest traffic occurs during the following times: the Mitchell southbound from 5.45 am to 6.45 am and northbound from 4.30 pm to 5.30 pm, and the Kwinana northbound from 6 am to 7 am and southbound from 3 pm to 4 pm.

Plan your trips in advance and leave plenty of time to get to your destination so you don’t have to rush and can avoid getting caught up in traffic.

Check the weather forecast

The weather in Perth can be notoriously changeable, so it’s important to check the forecast before you set off on your trip. If the weather is looking good, then you can plan to spend your days at the beach or exploring the city. However, if it’s looking like it’s going to be a wet day, then you might want to plan to visit some of the indoor attractions that Perth has to offer.

Some of the best indoor attractions include the Perth Mint, the Western Australian Museum, and the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Be prepared for the weather and check the forecast before you head off on your trip.

Use a Sat Nav/GPS

Regardless of how familiar you are with the region, having a satellite navigation system is critical for safe and efficient travel. You can take comfort in the knowledge that you will never get lost as a result of this program’s comprehensive set of navigational tools, which include detailed, step-by-step instructions, real-time traffic data, and even backup paths.

If you don’t have a portable GPS unit, there’s no need to worry. The majority of modern smartphones come pre-installed with a mapping application. Google Maps, for instance, is available for free on both iOS and Android devices. All you have to do is enter your starting location and destination into the app before you begin your campervan journey.

Make the most of your Perth campervan rental

Find a good location to stay.

The bright metropolis of Perth is the ideal starting point for an exploration of Western Australia. We recommend reserving at least one or two nights in Perth in order to visit the city. Camping sites and caravan parks are abundant in Western Australia, making it possible to spend each night of your journey surrounded by different scenery and allowing you to be flexible with your plan.

If you hire a campervan from Travellers Autobarn, you will receive a 10% discount on camping at any of the 300 Discovery or G’Day campgrounds. We will also assist you in locating free campgrounds in the Perth area.

Book around key events

Perth has a lot to offer all year round, from music festivals to cultural celebrations. If you want to make the most of your trip and experience everything that Perth has to offer, then it’s worth planning your trip around some of the key events that take place in the city.

Some of the events that you might want to consider include:

Margaret River Pro The Margaret River Pro is one of only two Australian events on the famous World Surf League (WSL) World Championship Tour (CT), and the world’s best professional surfers participate in the event each year, generally in April or May. With giant screens broadcasting replays, expert commentary, food trucks, and merchandise kiosks, the event hub has a festival feel. The best part is that young surfers can get up close and personal with their idols, who take their time after each heat to mingle with groms who line the pathway for autographs and selfies.

Fringe World Festival Fringe World is a phenomenally popular annual festival held in Perth that attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. Fringe World’s fantastic assortment of entertainment has something for everyone, including comedy, music and musicals, circus, and much more, and ticket costs are reasonable, allowing you to see numerous shows in one night.

Fremantle Festival The Fremantle Festival is an annual community festival that takes place over three days and features culture, music, and laughter filling the streets of Fremantle.

Perth Festival Perth Festival is a non-profit multi-arts festival that delivers world-class activities in performance, music, film, visual arts, and literature to Perth, Western Australia, every summer. As Australia’s longest-running arts event, the Festival has been celebrating Perth, its people, and its culture on the banks of the Derbarl Yerrigan (Swan River) for nearly 70 years. Rooted on Noongar Boodjar, it is uniquely positioned to honor the world’s oldest surviving civilisations by embracing rich Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander traditions and modern art.

Explore the national parks

Surrounded by majestic forests, wildflower-filled parks, and rugged coastline, Perth is the perfect base for exploring Western Australia’s stunning national parks.

Some of the national parks that you might want to consider visiting include:

Avon Valley National Park The sweeping Avon Valley plains, white water rapids, and verdant forests can all be found at Avon Valley National Park. Park your campervan in scenic Bald Hill and enjoy canoeing, hiking, and birdwatching in the area.

Nambung National Park Nambung National Park is well-known for the beautiful beaches at Kangaroo Point and Hangover Bay, as well as for its extensive coastal dune systems and abundance of flora. Aside from being one of Western Australia’s most interesting natural attractions, it’s also only two hours away from Perth. Walk among the thousands of limestone pillars that rise from the yellow sands and you could think you’ve landed on another planet.

Kalamunda National Park Kalamunda National Park is about 40 minutes from Perth and serves as the gateway to one of the world’s best long-distance hiking trails. It’s also a beautiful place to ride horses, go mountain biking, look at wildflowers, or have a picnic while taking in the sights of the city centre. The Schipp Road Walking Trail and the Rocky Pool Walk are both beautiful and may be completed in a day.

Serpentine National Park Serpentine National Park is the ideal day trip from Perth, with its stunning waterfalls, a plethora of hiking paths, and natural wildlife. A short drive of only an hour will take you to this national park, where you can witness the famous Serpentine Falls plunging over a granite cliff. There are a wide variety of creatures that make their home here; if you go bird watching, you can see as many as 70 different species of birds, and if you go exploring, you might run into some of the wallabies and kangaroos that also live in the area.

Book around the weather

As mentioned, Perth’s weather is notoriously sunny and dry, but there are still certain times of the year when it’s better to visit than others. Knowing these times will help you book your trip around the weather, ensuring that you have the best possible experience when you visit Perth.

5 Must-see Destinations in Perth

Swan Valley Wine Region Western Australia is renowned for many things, but wine is one of the most prominent! The world-renowned Margaret River wine area is only a few hours south of Perth, making it a worthwhile stop on any road trip to this destination. Perth’s Swan Valley has Indigenous Australian and Mediterranean roots and is home to over 150 wineries, distilleries, brewers, and artisan food manufacturers.

Fremantle Prison The old Fremantle Prison is one of eleven sites in Australia that make up the Australian Convict Sites World Heritage Property. This Fremantle landmark is located in the centre of the city. Visitors to the prison can choose from a variety of tours, including torchlight tours and tours of the tunnels beneath the facility. With numerous surrounding camping alternatives, you should include this location on your agenda.

Rottnest Island Rottnest Island is only 19 kilometres off Perth’s coast, but the island’s peaceful atmosphere and beautiful landscape will make you feel like you’ve travelled the world. Spend your time here exploring the unique flora and fauna, marine life, and, of course, meeting the friendly and inquisitive quokka, all of which can be accessed through a short ferry journey.

Cottesloe Beach Cottesloe Beach has long been regarded as Perth’s and Australia’s best beach destination. Take advantage of this breathtaking spot for swimming, surfing, and snorkeling on more than a kilometre of pristine white sand. Enjoy a picnic while you watch the sun go down over the Indian Ocean. The annual Sculpture by the Sea display is not to be missed if your trip takes you there in March.

Kings Park and Botanic Garden Kings Park and Botanic Garden is a tranquil haven close to the centre of the city, with stunning vistas of the Swan River and the Darling Range. As a bonus, it’s one of the world’s largest urban parks. Almost two-thirds of the park’s total area is made up of natural bush, home to a wide variety of native flora and birds. The Western Australian Botanic Garden is an environmental haven that features plants native to Western Australia and other regions with a Mediterranean climate, such as South Africa and California. Some of the highlights are a water garden that depicts a brook in the Darling Range, a tranquil acacia garden, and the Place of Reflection.

When traveling abroad, get a policy from one of the  best travel insurance companies . Y ou can get a  5% discount   on Heymondo , the only insurance that pays medical bills upfront for you, HERE!

Travellers Autobarn is a campervan rental company that we’ve used on several occasions, both in the U.S. and abroad. The Australia-based company has been around for over 30 years now, although it launched in the United States just a few years ago. Even so, it has quickly become one of the best places for RV rentals in the USA .

The company is concentrated in the Western U.S., so we’ve rented Autobarn campervans for a couple of trips around Las Vegas and the West Coast. More recently, we rented the Kuga campervan from Travelers Autobarn for an exciting journey through New Zealand. I can wholeheartedly recommend this rental service, especially if you’re looking for a vehicle that’s safe and comfortable, but also within your budget.

If you want to cut right to the chase and rent a camping van, you can go straight to the Travellers website . Otherwise, keep reading for my full Travellers Autobarn review , what we love about it, and why it’s one of the best campervan rentals in the U.S.

My honest Travellers Autobarn review – 3 campervan rentals later

As I said, we’ve used Travelers Autobarn a few times now, so we’ve become quite familiar with their campervans and the whole rental experience.

We rented the Kuga campervan each time, as it’s the perfect model for us. This high-roof campervan is efficiently designed and has a dining area, sleeping area, and a full kitchenette. I’ll share more about the Kuga van and the other Travellers camper van rentals in a bit, but just know that every rental comes with free unlimited miles, which is a huge bonus.

My honest Travellers Autobarn review

Since we travel as a couple, we have plenty of space in our campervan. That said, the Kuga model is designed to accommodate up to 3 people, which I can imagine would be a bit uncomfortable, but doable. The loft area converts into a single bed, but since we didn’t need it, we used it for extra storage space.

I also love that we can prepare our own meals in the van. This is perfect for when we want to explore more remote areas for extended periods of time. The campervan comes with a sink, fridge, and gas cooktop, powered by the van’s battery. There is also a microwave, but this is powered by the van’s solar panels, so that’s something to be aware of.

The campervan is tall enough for us to be able to stand up inside it, which makes it a lot easier to move around (Dan is 5’ 11”). Plus, we can convert the dining area into a bed in less than 2 minutes without having to open the doors. However, if you’re in the driver’s cab, you must exit the vehicle to get into the back part of the van.

Travellers Autobarn review

During the rainy days, we often use the dining area for work. We always travel with a portable Wi-Fi device , the Solis hotspot , so we can have reliable internet connection everywhere, but there are also other awesome options if you need internet while traveling .

As for driving, it’s an automatic transmission, so it’s quite easy to maneuver. It might take a bit of getting used to since it’s more top-heavy than a regular minivan, but it’s not difficult at all.

And, of course, the price for a Travellers camper van rental is very competitive. The company markets itself as a budget rental service, so you can find great deals. That said, the prices vary depending on the season, as well as where you pick up the vehicle. We’ve always picked up our campervan in Vegas, and the daily rate was around $120/day. Again, you get free unlimited miles as well as 24/7 roadside assistance, making this one of the best campervan rentals in Las Vegas .

The only con for us is that some of the vehicles are older, with some dating back to 2012. However, the company regularly services and updates its fleet, and the interiors were overhauled in 2020.

Travellers Autobarn locations in the USA

Travelers Autobarn USA has three locations in the Western U.S. At each location, the pick-up times are Monday to Saturday from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., and the drop-off times are Monday to Saturday from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

The Las Vegas location is just a few blocks from the Strip, so it’s super convenient. You can pick up your Travellers campervan after visiting the top attractions in Vegas . The Travellers website even has popular road trip ideas to inspire your next adventure.

You can also find Travellers camper van rentals in Los Angeles , California. The office is in Inglewood, so you can check out LA’s best attractions , and then head out on the road to explore the more natural areas and parks.

There is a third Autobarn location in San Francisco , specifically across the San Francisco Bay, in Hayward. If you want to start your trip in this city, a good idea would be to see the best places in San Francisco , then hop aboard your campervan for a road trip adventure.

Travellers Autobarn announced that it has two more U.S. locations coming soon: Denver and Seattle . So, you’ll have even more options for renting a cheap Travellers campervan and exploring the great United States wilderness.

Other Travellers Autobarn locations around the world

There are additional Travellers Autobarn locations outside the United States. The company actually started in Australia , so there are offices throughout the country, including in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Cairns, Perth, and Darwin.

They also offer campervan hires in Auckland and Christchurch, in New Zealand, as well as an office in Tokyo, Japan .

Types of Travellers Autobarn campervans

Choosing the right vehicle for your trip can be tricky, so Travelers Autobarn makes it easy by offering 4 types of campervans. You can find more details about each type below.

Keep in mind that an optional “living equipment” bundle is available with any rental for a one-time fee. It includes things like cutlery, pots/pans, cleaning supplies, sleeping bags, and linens. Also, Travelers campers in the USA aren’t self-contained, but you can purchase a portable toilet for a one-time fee, so it’s something to consider if you want to do some dispersed or free camping.

Minivan Rental – Seats 2-5 • Dodge Grand Caravan (2012 – 2017 Model)

The Travellers minivan rental is a converted Dodge Grand Caravan. It’s good for weekend tent camping trips to nearby locations. Since it’s smaller than the other vans, it gets slightly higher mileage plus, it’s easier to drive.

Travellers Autobarn minivan rental

You can add the living equipment bundle to this rental for $45, and it includes a 2-person tent, two camping chairs, an outdoor table, a gas cooktop, and cooking supplies. There is also the option to rent a folding foam mattress with sleeping bags and pillows.

Hi-Top Campervan – Seats 2-3 • Sleeps 2-3 • Chevrolet Express Campervan (2014 – 2016 Interior)

The Hi-Top Campervan from Travellers Autobarn is a Chevrolet Express campervan that sleeps 2-3 people. It has an older interior than the other campervans, but also tends to have lower daily rates, so it’s a cheaper alternative.

The van has a full kitchenette with a 2-burner gas stove, a fridge, a sink, and a microwave. It also has an 11-gallon water tank, 120V and USB plug-ins, a double bed fit-out, and a single bed in the loft area. You can add the living equipment bundle to this rental for $45.

Kuga Campervan – Seats 2-3 • Sleeps 2-3 • Chevrolet Express Campervan (2019 – 2021 Interior)

The Kuga campervan is Travelers Autobarn ’s most popular model and our personal favorite. It has a full kitchenette with a 2-burner gas stove, a fridge, a sink, and a microwave. You’ll also have an 11-gallon water tank, 120V and USB plug-ins, a double bed fit-out, and a single bed in the loft area.

Travellers Autobarn Kuga campervan

This Autobarn campervan has slightly newer interiors compared to the Hi-Top Campervan, as well as exterior lights and rooftop solar panels. You can add the living equipment bundle to this rental for $45.

Hi5 Campervan – Seats 4-5 • Sleeps 4-5 • Ford Transit Campervan (2022 or Newer)

Finally, the Hi5 Campervan is the largest Travellers campervan available, as well as the newest. It features a full kitchenette with a 2-burner gas stove, two fridges, a sink, and a microwave. There is also an 11-gallon water tank, 120V and USB plug-ins, two double beds, exterior lights, and rooftop solar panels.

The custom-built interior of this campervan hire grants you more storage room and a living area, plus a second row of seating behind the front cabin. It can sleep 4-5 people, so it’s ideal for families or groups. You can also add the living equipment bundle to this rental for a one-time fee of $75.

Travellers Autobarn insurance options

While Travelers Autobarn gives you the option to forego insurance, I always recommend purchasing insurance, so you’re covered in case anything happens. Besides, Travellers Autobarn’s insurance options are straightforward:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW): Covers damage to your campervan, includes protection for 2 tires and the front windshield. $13/day ($25/day for Hi5 Campervans).
• Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI): Up to $500,000 in protection against 3 rd parties (other vehicles, property, or people). $13.99 ($16.50 for Hi5 Campervans).
• Protection Plus : Includes CDW and SLI. $26.99 ($41.50 for Hi5 Campervans)
• Minimum Cover : $0. You’re responsible for any and all damages.

It’s always a good idea to purchase insurance! You don’t want to risk having to pay thousands of dollars for any damages caused by you or someone else.

If you’re traveling from outside the country, don’t forget your travel insurance for the USA . Health care is ridiculously expensive here!

Price of Travellers Autobarn campervan rentals

One of the best things about Travellers Autobarn is that it offers highly competitive rates. That said, the price of your rental depends on several factors, such as the pick-up location, the type of campervan, and the season.

Below, you can see the prices for a Travellers van rental for a 7-day trip and a 30-day trip. For this comparison, I selected Las Vegas as the pick-up and drop-off location.

*Sales tax and insurance not included

Travelers Autobarn ’s daily rates tend to be lower for longer trips, so you can save a lot of money if you’re traveling for several weeks or taking a month-long journey. You’ll find the lowest rates on the company’s website, and if you check the “Specials” page, you may find limited-time offers.

Also, your rental comes with free unlimited miles, 24/7 roadside assistance, a 30-day free trial to The Dyrt’s campground app, and discounts at select RV parks. All these benefits make Travellers Autobarn one of the best places to rent a campervan in the USA .

Travellers Autobarn promo codes & discounts

The Autobarn Travellers rates are already very good, but if you’re looking to save even more money, you can take a look at the website’s “Specials” page . Just make sure you read the terms and conditions to see what’s included and not included in these limited-time offers.

Travellers Autobarn discount for long hires

You can save on your Travelers camper van rental by extending the length of your trip. The “long-hire” discount is automatically applied to rentals over 7, 14, and 21 days. This discount lowers the daily rate 5%-20%, so you can save quite a lot. One-way fees are waived for any rentals over 28 days.

Travellers Autobarn special deals

Throughout the year, Travellers Autobarn offers special discounts for certain locations. For example, 15% off rentals out of Las Vegas and Los Angeles during some months. Check the website’s “Specials” page for more information on current Travellers Autobarn deals.

Travellers Autobarn relocation deals

Another special offer you can find on the website is a relocation deal. These types of discounts change throughout the year but can be a great deal if you’re flexible with your travel dates.

For example, you may find a Las Vegas to San Francisco relocation deal that includes 3 free days and 700 miles. However, the special only applies to certain Autobarn campervans . Also, you’ll be charged for any excess miles (50 cents/mile) and days ($99/day).

Travellers Autobarn discount for U.S. military personnel & veterans

Lastly, U.S. military service members and veterans can get 10% off their Travellers campervan for rental periods of 7 days or longer. To get the discount, you must contact Travellers Autobarn customer service and present valid documentation.

10 Things that make Travellers Autobarn the best campervan rental in the U.S.

There are plenty of reasons why Travellers Autobarn is considered one of the best campervan rentals in the USA . Below, I’ll share the top 10 reasons why Travelers Autobarn stands out from the rest.

1. Space-efficient conversions

Travellers campervans are ideal for couples, which is why they’re so perfect for us. The Kuga and Hi-Top vans can accommodate 2-3 people, while the Hi5 vans can sleep 4-5. In addition to a full kitchenette, there is a convenient dining area with a double bed fit-out, plus a loft area that can be used for storage or an additional bed.

One of the coolest things about the campers from Travelers Autobarn is that you can easily convert the dining area to a sleeping area in less than 2 minutes without having to open the van’s doors or stepping outside.

We visited New Zealand during our 10-month around-the-world trip and we were traveling with two big suitcases, plus two big camera bags. However, we had plenty of room in our campervan to move around comfortably.

2. Fully-equipped campervans

Travelers’ camper van rentals come with everything you need for life on the road. Your camper comes with a full kitchenette, which includes a decent-sized fridge, a microwave, a sink, and a gas cooktop. You’ll also have plenty of storage space for dry goods as well as luggage and equipment.

Fully-equipped campervans

The vans also have an 11-gallon water tank with a 25-foot hose, charging ports, and USB plug-ins. The Kuga and Hi5 campervans also have rooftop solar panels, so you can enjoy short-term off-grid living.

We also appreciated the battery capacity since on our New Zealand trip it rained non-stop for 3 days, and we were able to work on our laptops without driving around or draining the batteries.

3. Free unlimited miles

One of the best things about renting a campervan from Travelers Autobarn is that you get free unlimited miles, regardless of which vehicle you choose. So, there’s no need to worry about taking a detour or circling the lot looking for a parking spot.

4. Great campervan rental prices

In addition to free unlimited miles, Travellers Autobarn has highly competitive daily rates, making them one of the best options for budget-conscious travelers. You can get a campervan rental for as low as $50/day, and insurance costs as little as $13/day.

Of course, keep in mind that the prices depend on things like your rental location, the length of your trip, the type of van you rent, and the season.

5. 24/7 roadside assistance

Another perk of renting from Travelers Autobarn is that you’ll have 24/7 access to their roadside assistance team. So, if you get stuck with a flat tire, you need a jump-start, the vehicle breaks down, or anything else, help is just a phone call away.

24/7 roadside assistance

Travellers Autobarn can also help with any questions or concerns you may have, be it a mysterious light on your dashboard or you’re worried about running out of gas. To reach them, simply dial 1-800-469-4790.

So far, we haven’t had to use roadside assistance, and I hope to keep it that way!

6. Super quick pick-up/drop-off process

Once you confirm your reservation, you’ll receive email alerts in the days leading up to your pick-up time with all the necessary information. You can also complete the online check-in to make the in-person pick-up process super quick and easy. You’ll also receive email notifications before your drop-off date.

7. Friendly pick-up/drop-off times

Travellers Autobarn ’s pick-up hours are 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday – Saturday, and the drop-off hours are 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday – Saturday. If you need to arrange pick-up outside of these hours, you can contact customer support. However, contactless pick-up is only available in Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

8. No young driver fee

Many campervan rental companies require drivers to be at least 25 years old, but with Travellers Autobarn , you can rent a van as long as you’re 21 or older. Plus, there is no young driver fee, making this the best option for young professionals or recent graduates.

9. Discounted caravan parks

When you rent a Travellers camper van , you’ll get a 10% discount for your stay at any KOA campground in the U.S. You’ll receive the discount code when you pick up the vehicle, and you can use that code when booking your campsite reservation on the KOA Campgrounds website .

Be aware that this 10% discount applies to your first stay, and for a maximum of 4 nights.

10. Free 30-day campground app

Travellers Autobarn is partners with the online campground platform, The Dyrt. With your Travelers camper van rental , you’ll get a 30-day free trial for The Dyrt’s Pro Camping app .

The app helps you find top-rated campgrounds in your area, download campsite maps, create your own itineraries, and more. You can even get exclusive discounts at hundreds of campgrounds nationwide.

Travellers Autobarn terms and conditions

It’s always important to read the fine print so you know what you’re getting with your campervan rental. You can read the full Travellers Autobarn terms and conditions here , but I think the most essential information pertains to cancellations and changes to your rental.

For example, if you want to extend your rental period or change your drop-off location after picking up the camper, you must contact Travellers Autobarn and obtain written consent. Also, these types of changes may result in an additional fee (up to $500)

There is also a $25 fee if you make any changes to your rental reservation within 28 days of your pick-up date or during your rental period. No refunds will be given if you change to an earlier pick-up or drop-off date within 28 days of the original date.

Regarding cancellation fees, it depends on when you cancel:

• Up to 14 days before pick-up : free cancellation
• Within 14 days of pick-up : $200
• Within 7 days of pick-up : 50% of the rental price
• Same-day cancellation/no-show : 100% of the rental price

Again, you can read the full terms and conditions for Travellers Autobarn online or contact them if you have any questions.

Campervans are a great way to experience music festivals! Unfortunately, we don’t allow any rentals to Burning Man at this stage.

Sheets, covers, duvets, pillows, cooking material (pots/pans/cutlery and more) and chairs are provided for a one-off fee of $45/rental.

What do I do when my campervan breaks down?

Travellers Autobarn vehicles are maintained and serviced regularly, unfortunately this doesn’t prevent the occasional mechanical malfunction or breakdown.

In the event you experience any problems, even minor, you must contact our Customer Care team for further assistance. If immediate assistance is required, it is best to phone us.

Minor mechanical repairs costing less than $100 may be undertaken without contacting us for authorisation and will be reimbursed when you return the vehicle, receipts must be provided as proof, or we are unable to refund you.

Las Vegas Campervan Trip: Experience the Best of the Southwest

Let’s all look after our planet., leave no trace. let’s all look after our planet., over 6000 happy customers every year.

We rented kuga camper for 3 weeks. It was the best journey we could imagine and it is the best way to visit National Parks, you just have your home on wheels and it gives you so much flexibility on your trip. Everything was perfect, camper, equipment and customer service provided from Alfonso was excellent.

We drove over 8,000 miles and were on the road for 28 days in March 2022. We absolutely loved our Kuga van and made memories that will last a lifetime! We were already avid campers probably intermediate at best before our trip but thanks to Travellers Autobarn for the opportunity to rent one of their vehicles!

Russell and Alfonzo were AMAZING!! So helpful and friendly and made our drop off the best experience! They had great recommendations and made the whole process so smooth.

Fantastic! Super friendly team at the LA USA branch made our van rental super easy. The van never skipped a beat and best of all, no mileage restrictions. Highly recommend, will be back! 10/10.

Great value and service. Alfonso is also the best and super helpful. Definitely going to come back again in the future.

We had the van for 5 weeks and travelled across the US. We managed to get everywhere we wanted with our Travellers Autobarn Van. It's super comfy and cozy inside and the small kitchen was perfect to cook dinner along the roads.

We had an amazing trip with the Kuga Van. It was perfect and fit our needs. It was our home for 2 months ? Price was very good and there was no trouble when we brought it back. Thanks to Russel, Alfonso and Sam for the trip ;-)

I couldn't have thought of a better way to do our road trip. Travellers Autobarn made our renting experience so easy and fast. Russell provided great customer service and explained the ins and outs of the van in a simple manner. We will definitely rent from Autobarn again.

Rented a campervan for about 3 months and travelled through 13 states with their Kuga van. Travellers Autobarn is no doubt the best rental company to book a van through. The unlimited miles and the low price can’t be beat. The staff is incredibly helpful and nice. We’ll definitely rent from them in the future again.

I rented a Kuga from them for four weeks, from the minute I arrived, Russel was extremely helpful with all my questions and concerns. I initially had the van for two weeks but extended my trip half way through as I was having such a great time. The van was great! When I dropped it off, they were great and I can't wait
