Campervans & motorhomes

These are the vehicle categories we match travellers to across Australia and New Zealand. Each one below is a real example of the class, the exact make, model and operator depend on your dates and route, which is the part Flipside sorts out for you.

Compact Campervan

2-Seater / 2-Sleeper - The Low-Profile, Easy-Driving Setup

This style is designed for two travellers who want the freedom of a campervan with the manoeuvrability and efficiency of a standard car. Compact and easy to park, these vehicles offer a complete road-trip setup without the size or weight of a large motorhome.

Seating / Sleeping 2 Adults
Transmission Automatic
Engine / Fuel Unleaded Petrol
Driving Licence Standard Car Licence
Kitchen Setup Cooker, Fridge/Freezer (Dual Battery), Sink
Bed Dimensions Double Bed (option to sleep inside or extended)
Is This Size Right for Your Trip?

Choose this size if: you prioritise easy driving, fuel efficiency, quick setups, and a low-profile footprint for regional or coastal exploring.

Consider sizing up if: you require full interior standing height, an onboard toilet/shower, or extra living space for extended stays inside the vehicle.

How it works

This layout serves as an example of the 2-seater compact category. If this size fits your travel style, Flipside will search the entire market across every trusted operator in Australia and New Zealand to source the best available vehicle in this class for your dates and route.

Hitop Campervan

Standing Room Comfort with Everyday Manoeuvrability

Built on high-roof van platforms, hitop campervans provide a comfortable balance of space, functionality, and straightforward driving across Australia and New Zealand.

Is This Size Right for Your Trip?

Choose this size if: you want to stand comfortably inside your vehicle, cook indoors out of the elements, and enjoy extra elbow room without the size of a full motorhome.

Consider sizing up if: you require an onboard private toilet and shower, or prefer a permanent fixed bed layout that doesn’t need to be set up each night.

This layout serves as an example of the hitop category. If this style fits your travel plans, Flipside will search the entire market across every trusted operator in Australia and New Zealand to source the best available vehicle in this class for your dates and route.

Is This Size Right for Your Trip?

Consider another size if: you’re after extra space and comfort, look at a family motorhome. Or you prefer a smaller, lower profile vehicle that fits into standard car parks, look at a hitop or compact camper.

How it works
