Frequently asked questions

How much does Campervan hire in Hobart cost?

Prices vary depending on the campervan's age, size, and features. On Camplify, you can find options from local owners ranging from budget-friendly pop-tops for around $80 per night to luxurious, self-contained Sprinter vans from $350+ per night.

When is the best time to visit Hobart for a road trip?

The summer months (December to February) are the most popular, offering the warmest, most reliable weather. Autumn (March to May) is also beautiful, with fewer crowds and stunning foliage.

What licence do I need to hire a campervan in Hobart?

For almost all campervans, you only need a standard car licence. Their compact size makes them as easy to drive and park as a regular car, which is perfect for Tassie's winding mountain and coastal roads.

Do I need to book caravan parks in Hobart in advance?

Yes, absolutely. Hobart is the main entry point for many travellers, and parks book out months in advance for the peak summer season. It is essential to book your entire route ahead of time.

Are there pet-friendly campervan hire options in Hobart?

Absolutely! Many local owners on Camplify list their campervan as pet-friendly, so you don't have to leave your furry mate behind. (Note: Pets are strictly not permitted in any of Tasmania's national parks, so plan your itinerary accordingly).

Can I take a hired campervan on the Bruny Island ferry?

Yes! This is a great advantage of a campervan. The Bruny Island ferry (SeaLink) accepts them easily, and most are charged at the same rate as a standard car (under 6m), making it an easy and affordable adventure.
