New Zealand Rugby Word Cup 2011 - Motorhome and Campervan Rental
Thinking about Campervan Rental for the 2011 Rugby World Cup?
This year's Rugby World Cup is off and running. For those still planning on attending the Cup, there's still time to grab a camper!
With 12 venues spread across the North and South Islands travelling between matches will involve either hitting the roads or airports and organising hotel accommodation in each location. As an alternative, why not combine your car and hotel room, save a bundle of cash and explore what many have described as the world's most beautiful country between games? A Motorhome or Campervan is an ideal way travel around New Zealand and with plenty of Camper Parks there's no shortage of places to pull up overnight.
These days Motorhomes are superbly equipped with complete kitchens, full bathroom facilities, TV and DVD players, easy to drive and can sleep from 2 up to 6. A Veritable hotel on wheels without room service!
During the last British and Irish Lions Tour of New Zealand in 2005 the popularity of motorhome rental saw vehicles sell out extremely quickly, leaving many disappointed and unable to secure vehicles. It is highly recommended therefore, to book in early, ensuring you get the vehicle you are after and locked in at the lowest rate.
With DriveNow you get to compare vehicles and New Zealand Campervan rental rates from all leading suppliers and all on the one website, saving you the time and effort in trawling through the internet. Or if you have specific needs send through an email to rugbyworldcup@drivenow.com.au.
