Motorhome in NZ Posted on: Thu, 17 Mar 2005 08:58:48 +0000 (UTC)

Hi all,

I'd like to spend May in NZ, and i was thinking about renting a 4x4 (4WD,
don't know the correct word sorry) to be able to use any road.
Yesterday i've been to a travel agency and they have a quite interesting
offer for the flight + motorhome.
So now i'm hesitating.
The problem is i don't know anything about Motorhome, especially the
technical points (water, energy, shower, and so on...).
So i would need any information, motorhome travel stories, advices, anything
that could help me to choose.

Motorhome would give us freedom to stop quite anywhere (except in national
parks if i've understood well), to not look for a room everynight, not look
for a restaurant to eat, but it is huge and maybe some roads would be
impossible to take with it.
I would be very sad to be stop front of a road we couldn't take and not
being able to visite a beautiful place.
The technical constraints of the motorhome are not too much troubles? (drain
the dirty water, fill new water, energy for the light, the heating, the
cooking,...)
And as we will travel in may, wouldn't it be too cold in a motorhome?
Well here are my thoughts, i'm waiting for your advices, and more especially
stories of travel with a motorhome.

Thank you :0)
