Rent a caravan or camper in Pretoria, directly from its owner

Tshwane is well covered on Kampi. Owners here list everything from light popup trailers you can tow on an ordinary Code B licence to full touring caravans with a fixed bed and a proper kitchen, and the collection points run from Centurion and Midrand through Menlyn, Brooklyn and the eastern suburbs, so you are rarely driving far to fetch one. What Pretoria really gives you is a head start. You are already north of the Johannesburg traffic, with the N1 to the Waterberg, the N4 to the Kruger gates and the R21 south all starting on your side of the city, and you collect from the owner rather than queueing at a depot counter.

About Pretoria

Head north on the N1 and Bela-Bela is about an hour out, Mokopane two, Polokwane three, with the Waterberg bush camps off to the west of that road. The N4 east runs to Kruger's Phabeni Gate in roughly five hours, Malelane if you keep going. Pilanesberg is about 150km south-west on the R21 and N14, near enough two hours. Going south, the N1 hands over to the N3 for KwaZulu-Natal or the N12 for the Free State. For a weekend that costs you no leave days, the Magaliesberg is 90 minutes west on the R114 and Hartbeespoort is closer still. Every road named here is tarred and towed by caravans all year.

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.
Where do Pretoria owners hand the camper over?
At their own place, or somewhere near it that is easy to find. You agree the time and the spot in the message thread that opens the moment you send a request. The exact street address comes through once the booking is paid, not the moment it is approved. Most Pretoria owners are around Centurion, Brooklyn, Menlyn or the eastern suburbs.
What types of campers are available in Pretoria?
A broad mix: popup and tent trailers for travelling light, full touring caravans for a family, and off-road trailers built for gravel. Each camper's own page says how many people it sleeps and whether it needs a Code B or a Code EB licence, so you can check it against your own licence before you ask.
How much does caravan hire in Pretoria cost?
It depends on the rig, owners set their own rates. The 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. If you're going for a week or longer, many owners offer discounts, so it gets cheaper per day the longer you go.
Do I need an EB licence for a caravan from Pretoria?
That depends on the camper, not on where you collect it. Up to 750kg an ordinary Code B licence tows it, which is what most drivers already carry; above that you need a Code EB. Every camper's own page states which one it takes, and Kampi has a whole page of campers that need no EB at all.
