Easy to use with no booking fees.
Road Genius compares campervan and motorhome rentals across South Africa. Pick up in Cape Town, Johannesburg or Durban and drive the Garden Route, Kruger National Park or the Drakensberg at your own pace. A campervan lets you cover long distances while sleeping inside fenced rest camps and serviced caravan parks.
Campervan rentals in South Africa range from $150 to $400 per day during peak season, with lower prices available in the off-peak.
For those who don't need much space and prefer a rugged experience, consider a compact 4WD Camper.
Use our search tool for current rates and remember to factor in costs like fuel, campsite fees, and extras such as GPS or additional drivers.
