About Mpumalanga

The Panorama Route (R532/R36) is a full day's drive of viewpoints. God's Window, Bourke's Luck Potholes, and the Three Rondavels overlooking Blyde River Canyon, properly jaw-dropping. Southern Kruger gates (Numbi, Phabeni, Malelane, Crocodile Bridge) are 1-2 hours from Nelspruit. Stop at Pilgrims Rest on the way, it's a preserved gold mining town with a pub that looks like it hasn't changed since 1890. Dullstroom is the fly fishing and craft beer capital. Sabie and Graskop make good overnight stops if you're working your way along the escarpment.

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 is the Panorama Route?
It's a scenic drive along the Mpumalanga escarpment. Blyde River Canyon, God's Window, Bourke's Luck Potholes. You can do it in a day from Hazyview or Graskop. All tarred roads, so any caravan type can manage it.
Which Kruger gates are in Mpumalanga?
Several: Numbi, Phabeni, Paul Kruger (Skukuza), Orpen, Malelane, and Crocodile Bridge. All the camps at these gates have caravan stands with power points and ablution blocks.
Is Nelspruit a good base for caravan rental in Mpumalanga?
Great base. Kruger is 45 minutes away, the Panorama Route about 1.5 hours. Nelspruit (Mbombela) has everything you need, supermarkets, hardware stores, fuel, so stock up before heading into the bush.
How far is Mpumalanga from Johannesburg?
Nelspruit is 330km from Joburg (3.5 hours on the N4). Hazyview is 380km (4 hours). The N4 is a toll road but it's the fastest route and perfectly fine for towing.
