The big day has finally come, we make it to the airport just in time to catch out flight to perth airport from melbourne with the kids in tow. Arriving at our destination we catch a taxi to the depot to pickup our much long awaited Chepa Campa for our first camper trip to see the sights and delights of western australia, the kids all cheering and checking out the features of the camper and arguing over whos sleeping where? with...

The Barnsley’s love road tripping around Australia! In 2004 we drove as far and wide as our old Ute and vintage caravan would take us. We had the time of our lives! We benefitted as a family so much that we started our own blog to encourage and inspire other families to hit the road. Our blog www.familyroadtripaustralia.com.au has more than three thousand visitors each month!  Unfortunately we missed out on touring many places on our Australian road trip as we...

My fiance has just given birth, we are planning a wedding in September & there is a festival in Cairns with the chance of a life time to see a solar eclipse, where we would like to spend our honeymoon. When the time comes we would love to see this with our 6 month old little girl. To be able to share this moment in time & space would be such a wonderful way for us to start our family....

We, my daughter (10) and me, dream of an adventurous trip trough Great the American national parks. 

This is the best way to travel with your family. We all hired a motorhome from cheapa campa in auckland. Oh feel the serenity.

My husband Brian and I hired a cheaper camper last year and did a trip from Brisbane up to north Queensland as far as Hervey Bay, and then back down to Melbourne visiting friends along the way, Our dream is to now travel around the whole coast of Australia visiting friends from Brisbane all the way around to Perth, Then up to Darwin just to have a look.

As a family we have great dreams of traveling to Canada and in a motor home would be the icing on the cake.To be able to have the freedom of starting and stopping almost where ever you like sounds fantastic.Also to have your holiday home with you all the time and all the things you may need at arms lenght would be fine and dandie too. Just like a snail with his house on his back.

We hired an Apollo 4wd vehicle to tour up to Cape York.Our holiday was a wonderful adventure with the Apollo supplying all the comforts that we needed for such a trip. Cooking was done outside on the table which was on the vehicle. The balmy nights complimented our outside cooking  allowing us to watch the evening sunsets in this unique part of Australia.We would highly recommend these vwhicles for such a holiday.

Two years ago my older brother had the idea of a family reunion with our young brother Dave and his family who moved to Perth over 20 years ago.Our parents were over there on holiday and we planned a suprise visit and have the first full family reunion since they left England all those years ago.You can imagine their faces as we walked into the garden ! I honestly thought my mum would faint ! We had a tremendous trip...

Last year we embarked on a RTW trip with our two boys aged 12 and 9.  We spent 5 weeks in Australia and 5 weeks in New Zealand, most of that time was spent in a Cheapa Campa 6 berth camper van.  We had never hired a camper van before, but by the end of the Australia trip, we were well and truly hooked and ended up hiring again in New Zealand. Initially we were a bit apprehensive; first of all...

Well I can now say that I've slept in a campervan.  It wasn't the worst night of sleep but I've definitely had better.  Lindsey and I slept in the back bed, Cameron and Caitlin snuggled on the side bed, and Chris and Trenton got the "pent house", the bed that is above the front of the car. We were all exhausted so it was a little difficult to wake up but we managed.  I definitely wasn't expecting it to get so cold...

This is the trip I took around Western Australia last year. I rented a chepacampa, put something like 13,000 K on it and had a blast.

my huband, myself and two children 9 and 11 would pick up our Cheapa Campa for the holiday of a lifetime, starting at our home base of Adelaide head towards the big Blue Lake in Mount Gambier the travel towards the Great Ocean Road with several stops on the way The Twelve Apostles, Otway National Park and zipfly the list goes on and on. stop ove in Mlebourne for a few nights the travel the coastal road to Sydney stopping...

We made a decision to take the family on a great American road trip. Picking up our RV in LA we headed south to San Diego. Having our own camper enabled us to see the sights in our own time, stopping regular to enjoy the magnificant coastline. After visiting the San Diego Zoo, Legoland and the old town we set up camp very near the Mexican border. From there we took the rail to the border, crossed into Mexico and had...

40 days and 40 nights across Australia......in Cheapa Campa!!!  The coolest ride of my life started in late 2010 when me and my hubby decided that we wanted to see all of Australia before leaving the country for good ( we were both on student visas). As all students are, we were on a very tight budget. I have this nasty habit of bargain hunting till I drop dead. Thankfully, I didn't have to look long and finally found the best...

Ahhh to sleep per chance to dream, to dream to wake to find it true.  My family would be in seventh heaven with a motorhome trip in beautiful Australia.  It seems every year my husband and I take separate "duty visit" vacations to see family in far off places.  It is high time we had a family holiday all together, and Australia we are looking at you.

hello my name is bastien and i can just say one thing. i just love the world it's like a playground for me  and i just like to see the world like australia greetz bastien

My husband and I love to rent a mobile home and in home away from home luxury travel the length and breath of Australia.We have enjoyed two very memorable jaunts in this fashion. One from Brisbane to Darwin and the other from Brisbane to 1770 and return.It is wonderful to chat away and rejuvenate your relationship away from every day stresses and worries on the great Aussie highways. This is what we plan to do when we retire.Can not wait. We...

Finally we made it to OZ. I actually wanted to visit the South Seas, but my wife insisted on Australia, so we combined the two.We hired a Camper from a well-known supplier via the internet.Off we set from Perth heading north last October. We dawdled up the coast towards Exmouth, partly along the coast and partly through the Midlands. The flowers were gorgeous as were the animals. Unlike some travellers, we only averaged 100 km a day, if that -...
