This 4 berth Mercedez-Benz Spiriter is the perfect vehicle to journey through the beautiful wide open spaces of New Zealand. Packed with features such as two comfortable double beds, shower, toilet, gas stove and fridge. The light and airy interior with panoramic windows allows you to travel with a stunning backdrop wherever your journey may take you. All Bed Linens and towels provided. USB ports x 2 combined with bluetooth CD/Radio unit. No TV. This is a diesel vehicle and this fuel costs less than petrol in NZ, and a separate levy is charged per kilometre. This called Road User Charges (RUC). This cost 0.068 per km. Therefore 100 kms cost $6.80. You will reimburse the owner at the end of the trip in cash for the RUC used. This is a normal requirement of most of the diesel campers on ShareAcamper.

When planning you pick up, allow 1.5 - 2 hours. There will be a thorough training sequences that requires concentration, so don't expect to this straight after a long flight. Give yourself a night in a hotel or local AirBnB after a long flight. Similarly, if you will be travelling with young children, they will need to be occupied/supervised during the training. Seasoned travelling parents have found it useful to split these duties, with one parent taking the kids to the local McDonalds so the other can concentrate on learning how to use amenities and features of the campervan.
