Why rent a camper for Roof of Africa?
Kampi owners often drop the camper at the campsite for you, so no towing experience is needed. Most Kampi campers carry Kampi insurance at R89 a day. Some owners carry their own cover instead, and each listing says which. You get a comfortable bed, a kitchen, and privacy in a quiet corner of the site.
