About Luxury Campers
After a full day of game drives in Kruger, you want a proper bed and a hot shower, that's where these campers earn their keep. Same for a multi-day Garden Route trip where comfort matters, or a Kgalagadi adventure where you want the desert experience without roughing it. Some people park at private game reserves right along the fence line. The maths works too: a luxury camper per night often costs less than a lodge room, and you bring it with you everywhere.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the price on Kampi actually cover?
- What you pay is the owner's rate for the camper plus Kampi's service fee for handling the booking and the payment. Where a camper carries Kampi cover, that cover costs R89 a day; not every camper carries it, some owners carry their own instead, and the camper's own page says which. There is no once-off admin fee. That was Kampi's pricing before 1 July 2026, and a booking made before that date can still show it. Most owners also add a once-off cleaning fee, and every owner asks for a refundable damage deposit. The camper's own page shows both, and what your dates come to, before you send a request.
- How are the rental days counted?
- Every day of the trip is charged, including the day you collect the camper and the day you bring it back. A Friday to Sunday trip is three days, not two, because both the collection day and the return day count.
- When does the money actually move?
- On most campers, nothing is charged when you send a request. You only pay once the owner approves it, and owners have 3 days to answer. A few campers are set up for instant booking instead and charge as soon as you book, the camper's own page says which. Either way, you pay Kampi online, never the owner directly.
- Do I need a special licence to tow it?
- Not necessarily. Up to 750kg you can tow on an ordinary Code B licence, the same one most drivers already have. Over that you need a Code EB. Every camper's page says which one it needs, and Kampi has a whole page of campers that need no EB at all.
- What if I need to cancel, or something goes wrong?
- Cancel a request before you have paid and nothing is owed, because nothing was ever charged. Once you have paid, cancelling before the trip starts means a non-refundable booking fee of up to R189 may apply, and the rest is refunded according to the camper's policy. Cancelling once the trip has started, or on a listing with no cancellation policy set, refunds nothing at all: not the rate, not the cleaning fee, not the cover. The camper's own page shows its exact cancellation policy before you book, and it is worth reading before you pay.
- Who am I actually renting from?
- A private owner, not a franchise or a depot. Sending a request opens a message thread with them under their name, so you can talk before you pay anything. Their phone number and the exact pickup address open up once you have paid, not at the moment they approve. You collect the camper from them in person. Most owners have had an ID document, proof of address and the camper's papers approved by Kampi before their listing went live, though not every one of them has. There is no corporate credit or background check beyond that. What else stands behind them is the reviews they have earned on Kampi.
- What features do luxury campers have on Kampi?
- The full works. Queen beds, private bathroom with shower, kitchen with hob and oven, solar system with lithium batteries, aircon, outdoor awning and furniture, smart TV, and sometimes a separate outdoor kitchen. Every listing spells out exactly what's included.
- How much does luxury camper hire cost?
- Expect R900 to R2,500 a day depending on the rig and how kitted out it is. That per-day price is the owner's rate plus our service fee for handling the booking and the payment, and where a camper carries Kampi cover, that cover costs R89 a day. There is no once-off admin fee. Most owners add a once-off cleaning fee, and every owner asks for a refundable deposit, both shown on the listing before you book. A lot of owners also offer weekly discounts, so a longer trip brings the daily rate down.
- Are luxury campers worth the cost vs a lodge?
- If you're hitting multiple spots, a camper usually works out cheaper than lodges. One daily rate covers your accommodation wherever you go, versus paying per-night lodge rates at each stop. Plus you set your own schedule, no checkout times, no lost deposits.
- Are large luxury caravans easy to tow?
- The big ones (5m+) need a solid tow vehicle and an EB license. Stability aids help a lot. The owner will tell you exactly what you need to tow safely. Once it's hitched properly, most bakkie owners say it's surprisingly manageable.
