Rent a Motorhome in South Africa

Motorhomes are self-propelled camper vehicles where you drive and sleep in the same unit. No towing required. They range from converted vans to full-sized coaches with all amenities.

About Motorhomes

Motorhomes are a smaller market in South Africa compared to caravans and trailers, but they have a dedicated following. The appeal is simple: you drive one vehicle, park it, and you are home. No hitching, no reversing a trailer into a campsite, no worrying about tow weights. SA motorhomes range from converted Toyota Quantums and VW Transporters to purpose-built coach-style units. The converted vans are more nimble and can park anywhere a normal vehicle can. The larger motorhomes offer more space and amenities but need more planning for parking and fuel. On Kampi, motorhomes are a niche category. Listings are fewer but tend to be unique. They work well for road trips where you want maximum flexibility, especially for travellers who do not want to deal with towing or those who do not have a bakkie.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a special license to drive a motorhome?

It depends on the size. Most converted vans and smaller motorhomes can be driven with a standard Code B license. Larger coach-style motorhomes may require a Code C or higher. Check the listing on Kampi for the specific requirement.

What is the advantage of a motorhome over a caravan?

No towing. You drive one vehicle and park it wherever you want. This means no trailer license, no reversing a trailer, and more flexibility to explore. The trade-off is that when the motorhome is parked, you do not have a separate vehicle to drive around.
